Pit Bull Terriers Research Paper

One reason dogs should not be allowed in the workplace is because they are a distraction. In the article “No I do not Want to Pet your Dog” Farhad Manjoo states”A half-dozen people were crowding around him cooing and petting”. Instead of working people would be petting all the dogs that are at their work. Bosses will not pay people who just sit around all day pet dogs and do no work. “The dog is sure to come around you get between your legs, rub against your thigh, take a nap on your feet.” Farhad Manjoo, “No I do not Want to Pet your Dog”.

For example, some people state that pit bull breeds have locking jaws. They also generalize and say that they are overly aggressive towards human beings. It is also their view that pit bulls are dangerous to adopt, especially if one has no known history and parentage from a shelter or rescue is not known (Dickey 63). There is also a widespread myth that pit bulls are preferred by people with irresponsible breeding habits; effectively stating that pit bulls attract the most irresponsible and worst form of dog owners (Marrs). All these perceptions and myths have only served to malign pit bulls and to make them unattractive to the majority of people in the society.

For the fact that I did not have to worry about my dog being bound up with energy. We would get home and my dog would be worn out and content and not cause any disfunction in the house. Bringing me to my next point, in the second article the person says that they would have to worry about "loud barking dogs and yelling owners disturbing the nearby residents. ", if you have a good dog, which most people who take their dogs out to a park or public area do... there wouldn't be much of a problem. Because the more you take them out the more obedient they seem to get.

From both of those stereotypes comes a media bias on the breed that creates more and more stereotypes. Beginning with the common stereotypes that all Pit Bulls are naturally aggressive no matter how they are raised, is simply not true. While every dog breed can have their own set

The photograph of the “Attack Dogs,” reveals the unethical treatment protesters experienced from the Birmingham police department as they were attacked by their highly trained and dangerous dogs, while they were fighting for equality and human rights. The image displays an attempt by the white police officers to show authority, dominance, to create fear, and suppress any efforts of the Civil Rights Movement’s activists, as racist sentiments were extremely encrypted among many individuals in the South. Life magazine was considered by segregation supporters as extremely liberal and biased, yet the photographs that were published in Life magazine were so real and shocking that resulted in high support for the activist

I am an animal lover and I don’t like it when any species of animal is getting hurt or worse. But dogs can’t really tell you if they want to do these races or not and if a dog doesn't like doing these races the dog will not be able to tell the musher. These races can be very harsh and have to dog team to a conclusion of not surviving. But also the mushers can be thrown off the sled and left behind which leads to mushers also having a possible passing. Not just that can lead to the dog and mushers passing, much more like not having enough food, dehydration, and frostbite.

Some act like big babies, parents, trained, wild, or playful. According to the article, “Pit Bulls are born to fight” I disagree with this. All pit bulls aren't raised to fight, however, there are some pit bull owners that train their pit bull to become vicious so that they could fight and kill other dogs for ,money. I also disagree with the myth that states, “Pit Bulls have high bite rates” because it doesn't states all the circumstances that happened to cause a pit bull to bite. Some of these accidents could've came from a pit bull trying to protect someone or someone making them act out in such a bad manner.

There are many sports that use particularly dogs and most of them are called dog fights which are used for your entertainment and they abuse the dogs to make them fear humans and other dogs. Dogs should not be afraid of other dogs but they should be able to cooperate with each other and have a family that will not abuse them and make the fight. These animals should be taken to animal shelters and taken away from the people who beat them and make them fight. If you ever see a dog walking on the side of the road and it looks like its malnurited then you should do it a favor and take

Candy’s dog is more of a warning to everyone rather than just Lennie. Candy’s dog represents life on the ranch when you get to old and have no use, you are inevitably killed off for not being strong enough.Carlson insisting on shooting his dog leaves Candy worried for his own well being because like the dog he is old and frail and soon to be of little use to those around

To others, it is natural for him to do the deed because of his talent, however, it is very difficult for Atticus to shoot the dog because of his hatred of both guns and his natural talent because it gives “...him an unfair advantage over most living things” so he “...he decided he wouldn’t shoot until he had to” (130). For him to be able to finish the job means that he set aside his very strong sense of morals and his goal to teach his children morals in order to protect his town. Since the dog represents the racism of Maycomb, Atticus both symbolically rose up against racism by killing the dog and literally by defending a black man. When the rabid dog came to Maycomb, everyone in the town cowardly ran into the safety of their house and locked everything up, except for Atticus. No one stands up to the evilness of racism even if they do not agree with it, such as Mrs. Maudie, who had clear opposition to racism.
