"I’ve created a monster— like Victor to Frankenstein — and now Frankenstein’s famous, leaving her creator alone in the shadows. I want to wish my dog nothing but the best in her future endeavours…but it’s tough when your cuddle buddy has left you to eat her dust," said Christine Park, as shared by Bored Panda.

Christine, however, admitted in an email to The Huffington Post on Friday that Tonkey is always the "most interesting part" of their day.
"Tonkey is always the most interesting part of our day! She has a fearless playfulness about her, and it 's hilarious to witness, especially in contrast to Maxi 's more mellow approach to life. Max and Tonkey are never far apart, though. They 're best friends and and loyal sisters," she wrote.
Meanwhile, the couple hopes that Tonkeys supporters will give their pet an opportunity to do something great for its friends.

In the article, “The Last Meow,” by Burkhard Bilger argues that people are spending a lot of money on their pets rather than spending it the right way. It is estimated Americans spend billions of dollars a year on veterinary care. Bilger believes our love affair with our pets and spending on animal has gotten out of control . American spend nearly three times as much as federal government spends on welfare grants. Although pet care is very important , I agree with Bilger that this has gotten out of control because pet owner spent humorous amount of money for their pet unnecessary things, pet owners are giving the life and luxury to their pets and many pets do not get the services some pet’s get.
La-Nee Davis remembers as a young girl always having a dog in the house. Her daddy was a dog lover and would oftentimes bring in strays that he found on the street. They had German Shepherds, Pitt Bull mixes and many other breeds. As an adult, her love for dogs has not waned. This is evident when she views the commercials on TV of how animals are abused and neglected, it hurts her heart.
I will always remember my dog, Tootsie, fondly. The first night that we had her, she woke me up in the middle of the night. I should have been upset, but as I sat and held her, I knew that she would be an important part of my life. She was always there when I was growing up, happy to see me and ready to play with her stuffed baseball. She was there at family events like Christmas and Thanksgiving, brightening up people’s holidays.
They share a lot in common, so they are perfect for each other. Max is the main narrator of the book, and he tells a lot about his feelings and when he’s excited or something.

When he was younger, they tried to put him in daycare to “improve his temper”, but he invented games
Spraying down the walls of the cement kennel, I thought about what might happen to all these wonderful dogs. My newfound buddy Francis, an adorable brindle Pitbull mix, licked my fingers through the steel bars of the next pen. He was a beautiful dog, with excellent confirmation and liquid brown eyes, but his dark color and breed gave him little chance at a forever family. Most of the dogs at Harvest Hills Animal shelter are loving Pit bulls or Pit bull mixes. Thankfully, this is a no-kill establishment but even with the hard work of all these dedicated volunteers thousands of Pit bulls get euthanized every day nationally because of the reputation the breed has become known for.
He was as soft and white like a cotton ball, and that's where we got his name from. I was nine years old when he joined our family. I never knew a dog would've been so important to me. In 2012, something horrible happened.
As I drive around Phoenix with my puppy best friends, Sophie and Paco, there is not a single worry in the world for us. Sophie, with her long, brown, sun kissed fur, bobs her head out the car window as she enjoys the fresh breeze flowing through her fur. Paco rests his little head on the window that is halfway rolled down, as his wet tongue absorbs the wind. On our weekly car rides, my best friends and I pass by a building that has signs with dogs and cats all over. This building is a shelter for animals that are not so fortunate like my two furry friends.

Amusing the Million by John F. Kasson uses Coney Island as a turning point in American history before World War I. Coney Island at the rise of a new mass culture during the twentieth century allowed society to be free from the ever so conformity that the government has bestowed upon them. Being free from the urban industrialized genteel control; the creation of Coney Island served a purpose to detach from the formal culture in which they were living in. This era has sparked cultural freedom with that gave society a thrilling new find in amusement parks which went against societal genteel norms. Coney Island was used as an escape from the industrialized life that wanted to establish civil order.

This week, the readings point the spotlight at the some of the depressing hardships that the African-American population frequently experience.

Rehabilitation has become the best treatment for many of these once trained aggressive dogs. The ASPCA has been working extremely hard examining and treating rescued pit bulls. Many of these animals come from a long life of neglect and fighting. Most are believed to have been abused since 10 weeks old. This organization has came across many fighting raids and never once experienced a dog aggressive towards humans but mostly towards other animals.

At first Max, almost angry that Kevin is crippled but still smarter than himself, thinks that Kevin is taking advantage of his large size to get away from bullies. This strongly shows that Kevin and Max’s relationship is overall not a good one, a parasitic relationship. But I can prove that belief that Kevin and Max’s relationship is unhealthy with another example of mutualism from The Mighty. When the two friends get to know each other well after Max’s revival at the fireworks show, Kevin and Max go to a museum with knights. They both realize that, together, they are almost unstoppable, and they both fulfill each other.
In the story Of Mice and Men, Steinbeck uses the dog to represent loneliness of Candy. The men in the bunkhouse where complaining about how bad the dog stunk so Carl said let me do it he won’t even feel a thing. Curly says, “ I had him since he was a pup though”(Steinbeck #44).

Curley won’t have a person or a dog to wake up to and talk to or attend to the dog.
