    The letter by Kristen Miller is a good model letter requesting information. It includes relevant details using her own words, has paragraphs focused on single topics, and uses polite language. She provides context for her inquiry, then asks specific questions about breed acceptance, age requirements, cost and payment options, class dates, and duration. The letter by John Riley is a poor model letter. While it expresses interest in the dog training classes, it lacks organization and fails to ask specific questions. It does not provide necessary context and jumps between topics without separate paragraphs. The informal tone is also less appropriate for a letter requesting official information.

    Dear Sir/Madam, DOG OBEDIENCE


    I am writing to enquire about your advertisement in the September issue CLASSES
    of Favourite Pets magazine. I am interested in dog obedience classes but I
    would be grateful if you could send me further details.
    Firstly, I would like to know what breeds of dogs are accepted for the
    classes and whether the dog must be a certain age in order to take part. I
    have a six-month-old male cocker spaniel which I am anxious to train. He is
    very excitable and especially needs to learn how to walk without pulling on
    his lead.
    I also require information on the cost of the course and type of payment. Train your dog in our
    I wonder if it is possible to pay for it in instalments. special classes.
    Another matter I need information on is the date when the course will Register now for the
    commence and how long it is likely to last. autumn course.
    I look forward to receiving details about the dog obedience classes. Thank
    you in advance for your help.

    Dear Sir/Madam,
    I was reading the September issue of Favourite Pets magazine when I
    saw an ad for your dog-training school, so I decided to drop you a line. I
    need some information, you see.
    My puppy is only six month old. Will you accept him at this age, or is
    he too young? He's really sweet. It would be great if you could let me know
    about this.
    I’m sure that after taking your course my dog will be much easier to
    control, so I can’t wait for it to start. When exactly do classes begin and
    end?
    I’m looking forward to your reply. Thanks a lot.

    Best wishes,
    John Riley
