the pronoun in bold is vague. select all of its possible antecedents. my father puts scout in the dog crate whenever he needs to go somewhere.
In the sentence "My father puts Scout in the dog crate whenever he needs to go somewhere", the pronoun "he" is vague. The possible antecedents (nouns the pronoun could refer to) are "My father" (since "father" is male and a person) and "Scout" (if Scout is a male dog, as pronouns can refer to animals in context). We analyze the context: "he" is a masculine pronoun, so it can refer to the male human ("My father") or a male animal ("Scout" if Scout is male).
