Model Answer

The company of other dogs gave Tricki a natural social environment — he was motivated to compete for food, play, and run with the pack. This restored his appetite and activity without any medicine. This suggests that physical activity, companionship, and a natural routine are essential for well-being, far more effective than artificial pampering or overfeeding.

Explanation

The examiner wants two things: (1) how the dogs helped — competition at feeding time, physical play, and social belonging; (2) the broader suggestion about natural environment vs over-pampering. Keep one point on each. Avoid re-telling the whole story. The phrase "no medicinal treatment of any kind" from the passage is key proof to reference or echo.
