My dogs name is tiger. he barks at people who come at the door and he ate our leftovers and got bitten by a snake and died.
My pet tiger, bitten by a snake and died.
Dude,
Sorry to hear about your dog. I once had a snake that got bitten by a dog and died. But, that's another story.
I'm hoping the assignment was to tell a story in one sentence.
Here's my revision of your sad tale:
My dog's name was Tiger; he used to eat leftovers and bark at people who came to our door, but he got bitten by a snake and died.
If you are allowed more than one sentence, go with this:
My dog's name was Tiger. He was a (insert breed ) and loved to eat leftovers and bark at people who came to our door. He got bitten by a poisonous snake and died. I killed the snake with a shovel and buried my beloved Tiger in the backyard.
Remember that specific details help readers visualize the tragedy. Tell what kind of dog Tiger was. Was he a yellow Lab? A boxer? Was the snake a rattler? a copperhead? Remember also that Tiger is what your English teacher would call a proper noun. Even if he used to pee all over the rug, he still deserves a capital letter at the start of his name.
Good luck!

Is that really true, or do you just have a messed up sense of humor?! :-)
Use an apostrophe:
My dog's name is tiger.
Capitalize the first word of a sentence:
