Java – Unclosed character literal

java

// Create a class called Dog containing two String: name and says. In main(), create two dogs objects
and assign it to spot's object.  

class Dog {
    String name;
    String says;
}

public class DogSays {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Dog D1 = new Dog();
        Dog D2 = new Dog();

        D1.says = "Woof!";
        D1.name = "Scruffy!";

        D2.says = "Bark!";
        D2.name = "Spot!";
        System.out.println("Hi! My name is " + D1.name);
        System.out.println(D1.says);
        System.out.println("Rooooooooowr! I'm " + D2.name);
        System.out.println(D2.says);
    }
}

I've been checking this for an hour and I don't have any idea what's wrong. I get a class, enum, or interface error expected and also a unclosed character literal. I think it' something with the quotes.

The problem "Unclosed character literal" is here:

//Exercise2.5 Create a class called Dog containing two String: name and says. In main(), create two dogs objects
and assign it to spot's object.

Make it: 

//Exercise2.5 Create a class called Dog containing two String: name and says. In main(), create two dogs objects
//and assign it to spot's object.

You can not have stray comments without leading // or not enclosed in /* and */ pairs...
