1. Your sentences were correct. I am offering you an alternative phrase. You can use "an adorable" instead.
I agree. He is very cute! I'm not sure why but in English I think there is a tendency to refer to dogs as "he", even though we don't know if they are male or female. How about you? Do you have a pet dog?

We tend to assume the sex of dogs by their appearance. For example, a big black dog tend to be thought as male and little white dog is female. Actually, we usually don't use he or she when referring a strange dog. We say "wan chan" instead, which is kind of nickname sounds like a kid, meaning " a dog". I used to have a male dog.

Actually, we usually don't use he or she when referring to a strange dog. We say "wan chan" instead, which is kind of nickname that sounds like a kid, meaning " a dog." I used to have a male dog.

1. The verb form "tend" doesn't agree with the phrase "big black dog." "tends" is needed.
2. The preposition "of" was missing here, so we added it.
3. A comma is needed before the conjunction "and" when connecting two independent clauses.
4. The article "a" is needed before "little white dog."
5. The sentence was incomplete, so we added the preposition "to."
6. The sentence was incomplete, so we added the word "that."
7. Commas and full stops need to be before the quotation marks.
I see. You are a dog lover then, aren't you? What happened to your dog if you don't mind my asking? I have a pet dog and she is two years old.

Yes, I love dogs. My dog passed away one and a half years ago. He had a fit because of the brain bleeding. Despite of the treatment at an emergency veterinary, he didn't recover. He was sixteen years and nine months.

1. The article is not needed before the phrase "brain bleeding."
2. The preposition "of" is not needed here, so we removed it.
Oh, I am so sorry. It is so hard to lose a pet because they are like family. What kind of dog was it?

It was American Cocker Spaniel. He was a friendly and adorable dog. I still miss him.
