The quotation from the text that best supports the inference that a dog will sacrifice its own comfort for the companionship of its owner is A) "He will sleep on the cold ground when the wintry winds blow and the snow drives fiercely, if only he can be near his master's side".
This part of the speech pronounced by Vest presents the dog as a loyal friend<u>. Here, the dog is conceived as an animal capable of doing anything just to be near its master, that is, its owner</u>. In this case, according to George G. Vest,<u> a dog is willing to leave a warm bed and to feel uncomfortable and cold in order to share a moment with its owner,</u> protect him/her and, at the same time, feel protected.
I think the correct answer would be D. It makes the most sense to me!
