托德：理查德！

Richard: Hi, Todd. Good to see you.

理查德：你好，托德。见到你很高兴。

Todd: Good to see you. 

托德：见到你我也很高兴。

Richard: Long time no see. 

理查德：好久不见了。

Todd: Yeah, it's been awhile. 

托德：对啊，有一段时间没见了。

Richard: It's been awhile. 

理查德：确实有段时间了。

Todd: Richard, you helped me out when I first started the website. 

托德：理查德，我刚开始上网时你帮了我很多忙。

Richard: My pleasure. 

理查德：这是我的荣幸。

Todd: Yeah, you're very kind and you talked about your dog! 

托德：嗯，你人真好，你还谈到了你的狗！

Richard: Lucky! Here he is! This is Lucky's picture. 

理查德：它叫好运！这就是它！这是“好运”的照片。

Todd: Wow! That's big. So tell us about Lucky. How's lucky been the last two years? 

托德：哇！好大的狗啊。跟我们说说“好运”吧。这两年它过得怎么样？

Richard: Lucky, the last two year! Yeah! Lucky is almost two years old. His birthday is November the 11th! One-One-One-One, so he'll be 2 years old. He's doing well. He's developed some unique, sort of characteristics, personality traits. One is that late at night he doesn't like walking just with me, it has to be with me and my wife together. So he has two big bodyguards. It's true. It's an unusual thing but he will not walk by the river where it's very dark with just one person. He needs two people to walk him. Which is unusual for a dog. He's a golden retriever so he's a big dog, but he's just, he needs two people and he gets very lonely, you know he likes to follow people around the house the whole time, you know he's a really, he's a very sort of sociable dog. 

理查德：“好运”的这两年！嗯！“好运”差不多两岁了。它的生日是11月11日！1111，所以它马上就要两岁了。它过得很好。它养成了一些奇特的性格、特征。其中一个就是深夜的时候，它不喜欢只和我散步，它一定要和我和我的妻子一起散步。这样它就有两个保镖了。这是真的。这很不同寻常，不过它就是不想只和一个人在漆黑的河边散步。它需要两个人和它一起散步。这对狗来说很不同寻常。它是黄金猎犬，属于大型犬，但是它就是需要两个人的陪伴，它会感到寂寞，你知道它在家里喜欢一直跟着人，它真的是一只善于与人交流的狗。

Todd: What a lovely dog! 

托德：多可爱的狗啊！

Richard: Yes, lovely dog! 

理查德：对，非常可爱！

Todd: I want to meet him! 

托德：我想见见它！

Richard: Yeah, well, anytime! 

理查德：嗯，当然，随时可以！

Todd: So, I think you were saying something earlier about how he gets cold. 

托德：我记得你之前说过它怕冷的事情。

Richard: Yeah, that's the other thing. One of the other unique things about Lucky is that I think he's a bit spoiled. I mean, you know, a lot of dogs live outdoors but this dog lives indoors, and you know the kotatsu, in the winter my obaachan, my wife's mother has the kotatsu. 

理查德：对，那是它另一个与众不同的地方。“好运”另一件奇特的事情就是，我认为它被宠坏了。我的意思是，你知道的，有许多狗都生活在室外，但是它生活在室内，你知道冬天的时候，我岳母家会用暖桌。

Todd: Yeah, like the kotatsu is like a big blanket. 

托德：嗯，暖桌就像大毛毯一样。

Richard: Ah, yeah, like a little low table. 

理查德：嗯，对，是一张矮桌子。

Todd: Oh, the kotatsu, oh, yeah, yeah, sorry. 

托德：哦，暖桌，抱歉。

Richard: An electric heater underneath it. 

理查德：桌子下面有电暖器。

Todd: Yeah, that's right, sorry! 

托德：对，是这个，我很抱歉！

Richard: And cat in Japan, cats are famous for going under the kotatsu in winter but my dog goes under the Kotatsu, so and he's quite big right, so you just see his legs poking out of the kotatsu. I mean that's a very unusual behavior for a golden retriever. Yeah, yeah, he's an unusual dog. 

理查德：在日本，猫在冬天的时候会待在暖桌下面，但是我的狗却也会待在暖桌下面，而因为它太大了，所以你会看到它的腿伸出暖桌，我是说这对黄金猎犬来说是很反常的行为。对，它是只不同寻常的狗。

Todd: So how much does he eat? 

托德：那它吃多少东西呢？

Richard: I see, what about my son. I want to talk about my son. 

理查德：我想想啊，大概和我儿子差不多。我想谈谈我儿子。

Todd: Well, no but like, first I'm just curious, how much does you dog eat? 

托德：嗯，先不谈那个，我只是好奇你的狗到底吃多少东西？

Richard: How much does he eat? Well, it's three times a day. 

理查德：它吃多少东西？嗯，一天吃三顿饭。

Todd: Yeah, I mean, how much does it cost? 

托德：嗯，我是说，它的食物要花费多少钱？

Richard: Oh, the cost! 

理查德：哦，花费！

Todd: Yeah, to feed a dog in Japan! 

托德：对，在日本养狗的费用！

Richard: Well, that's a good, that's a tough question. I buy a big bag of food. It costs me 18,000 yen and that lasts about three months, so about 6,000 yen. 

理查德：嗯，这是一个很好的问题，但是也很难。我会买一大包食物，价格为1.8万日元，大概可以吃三个月，所以一个月6000日元左右。

Todd: Man, that is expensive! So you're dog, that's at least 6,000 yen a month on food. 

托德：嘿，这太贵了！一只狗一个月的狗粮就要花费6000日元。

Richard: And then Vet's bills are pretty high. 

理查德：而且兽医的费用非常昂贵。

Todd: Wow! But he's worth it! It seems like you love your dog. 

托德：哇！不过它值得！看起来你非常爱你的狗。

Richard: I love my dog. I carry his picture everywhere. 

理查德：我很爱我的狗。我去任何地方都会带着它的照片。

Todd: That's my favorite dog too! Golden Retrievers. They're so kind. 

托德：这也是我最喜欢的狗！黄金猎犬。它们非常友善。

Richard: I also love my son! Can I talk about my son! 

理查德：我也很爱我的儿子！我能谈谈我儿子吗？

Todd: OK, we'll do your son in the next interview. 

托德：好，我们在下次访问中再谈你的儿子。
