Solution
The correct option is C Whose / our The correct answer is Option C.
WHOSE means belonging to or associated with.
In the given sentence the speaker wants to know who does the dog belong to.
Thus WHOSE is the correct answer.
OUR is a possessive adjective. It is used as an adjective before a noun to indicate possession. In the given sentence, it describes the garden in terms of belonging. Thus OUR is the correct answer.
The remaining options are incorrect because:
OURS is a possessive pronoun form of WE. It is used to indicate possession when one does not want to repeat a noun.
