Ihr as possessive pronoun
Duolingo told me that the acceptable translations for "Ihr Hund isst Reis." are either HER dog eats rice or THEIR dog eats rice. How would one say "HIS dog eats rice"? Is it Er instead of Ihr? I can tell that Ihr has several different functions.

ahhh ok so Sein Hund frisst Reis would be "His dog eats rice". I have seen people mention that fressen is for animals eating. It sucks that Duolingo has not taught me that word yet and has been using essen for all examples in which animals are eating. I will try and remember this for the real world.
