[Dog eating Donut] Prevent Sesame from dying?

[( * )]

Hi,

*MINOR SPOILER*

The third day, an old lady asks you to buy 12 donuts and bring them back to her.
When you do, she can't eat them and asks you to do so.
Whatever I do, I'm forced to make her dog eat the last ones, leading to his death.

How to prevent it?
- First and second donuts must either be eaten or burried in flowers
- I can't eat the third ones and am forced to give them to the dog.

Am I missing something?
Is there a way to ditch some donuts before coming back to her?

Thanks :)

I too noted this, however, I think it's intentional. Given how the early game tries to reinforce that you don't have to do everything every day, I believe this event is to reinforce that you're going to have to make decisions in a situation where there is no "good" or "correct" outcome.

This event also leads into another, so from what I can see it has to be done.

By the way, there's a bug.
I didn't go to see the old lady, then few days later still got the event.

You have to make sure you get the lowerst number of donuts each time ( 2, 4, 6) The dog doesn't die with six sesame seeds--just gets sick (I know this). I am assuming it does with more.
