The correct answer is: The writer contrasts the idea that puppies are a lot of work with the idea that dogs are great companions for life.
To determine the distinction, we can look for contrasting statements or ideas present in the sentence. In this case, the sentence presents two contrasting ideas: that puppies require a lot of training and attention, and that dogs make amazing companions for life. By comparing these two ideas, the writer highlights the difference between the challenging early stages of puppyhood and the lifelong companionship and joy that dogs can bring.
