A most unsociable dog he proved to be,
resenting all their advances, refusing to let them lay hands on him, menacing them with bared fangs and bristling hair.
(A) resenting all their advances, refusing to let them lay hands on him, menacing them with bared fangs and bristling hair
- we need "and" before menacing !!
(B) resenting all advances, refusing to let them lay hands on him, menacing them with bared fangs, and bristling hair
- "bristling" hair is not one of the unsociaable things that the dog is doing !!! The menace is created by 2 things :fangs and hair !!
(C) resenting all the advances that they made, refusing to let them lay hands on him, menaced them with bared fangs and bristling hair
-"and" missing ; parallelism error ..unwarranted use of "verb-ed" modifier because the dog IS STILL a menace
(D) resenting all their advances, refusing to let them lay hands on him, menaced them with bared fangs and bristling hair
-same as C
(E) resenting all the advances that they made, refusing to let them lay hands on him, and menacing them with bared fangs and bristling hair
