Answer 1

The best sentence that combines the two sentences using a coordinating conjunction is:

**My dog loves running on the beach, but she doesn’t like seeing other dogs on the beach.**

This option uses "but," which is an appropriate coordinating conjunction to show contrast between the two ideas.
