When using avoir as the auxilliary verb in the passe compose, I thought that the past participle had to agree with the direct object... so in the previous exercise there was:
"Nous avons nouri nos chiens" ...are not les chiens the direct object of the verb in that sentence?
"il a fini ses devoirs" ...are not les devoirs the direct object of that sentence...?
...I guess I have got something very wrong here... grateful for any guidance...

Pour quelle raison c'est « nous les avons laissé faire connaissance » et pas « nous les avons laissés faire connaissance » ? « Laissés » doit être pluriel parce que l'objet direct est avant le verbe, n'est-ce pas?

"M'attendriez-vous "
Why is it "Nous faisons des progrès" instead of "le progrès?
