📝 Audio transcript
Hola, soy Calcetín, un perro muy inquieto.
Todos los días me despierto temprano y salto de la cama.
Desayuno mi comida favorita y luego salgo a pasear con mi dueño.
En el parque corro y juego con otros perros.
Después vuelvo a casa y duermo una siesta.
En la tarde mi dueño me cepilla y me da un premio.
Por la noche como nuevamente y me acurruco en mi cama.
Me encanta ser un perro.
