Use the paragraph to answer the question.

Their long journey had finally come to an end. Andie took a moment to examine Sir Reginald, his paws coated in mud so thick it was as if he wore boots. Normally, she wouldn’t dare open the patio door, allowing Sir Reginald to run across the sea of white carpet and jump on the furniture. But on this day, she would have given him the moon if he asked. Her best friend in the world had saved her from being lost in the woods.
