<em>Option D is the correct answer. </em>
<em></em>
<u>Explanation:</u>
After reading and observing the passage, it is evident that the word ‘pug’ is repeated in every line. Using the same noun in different sentences that are talking about the same subject, makes the sentence formation clumsy. It can be easily replaced by a pronoun (parts of speech) after its use in the starting sentence. Also, the sentences would sound better.
