On Sunday morning, Jana walked to the park. She carried her blue yoga mat. A free yoga class started at nine.
Near the big tree, she saw a group of people. Many of them had dogs.
"Maybe it is yoga with dogs," Jana thought. She put her mat on the grass.
A woman with a whistle smiled at her. "Welcome to dog class!" she said. "Today the dogs learn to sit."
Jana looked at her mat. "This is not yoga?" she asked.
"No," the woman said. "This is dog training."
Jana had no dog, but she did not leave. She sat on her mat and watched.
A small black dog sat down. A big brown dog lay on the grass. One funny dog ran in circles. Jana laughed and laughed.
Then the small dog walked onto her mat. He sat down. Jana gave him a smile.
At last, she asked a man. "Where is the yoga class?"
"By the lake," he said. "They start at nine."
Jana picked up her mat and ran to the lake. The yoga teacher looked at her.
"You are late," the teacher said.
"I know," Jana said. "I was at dog class."
