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...

Use of avoir with monter

The quiz question was Lucas a monté la nouvelle armoire de sa sœur

How is this different from Lucas a monté les escaliers?

In otherwords, why is "Lucas climbed on top of his sister's new wardrobe" incorrect?

Thank you

Tartine vs tranches du painI seem to recall in a recent exercise, probably one of this weekend's workout that tranche du (de) pain was the preferred answer for toast and that tartine was also given as a possibility. In this exercise, tartine was the only acceptable translation for a slice of toast. Is this an oversight?
