A Heartbreaking Discovery Of Being A Homeless Dog

Thank you for responding, it really means a lot! I am 16 years old and I have been diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder with the traits of paranoid schizophrenia (including hallucinations and delusions), chronic depression, and generalized anxiety. I have had these mental illnesses since birth and living in day to day life can be difficult and exhausting for me.

Each day I would wake up the same way. With a smile on my face and everything in its place. Feeling whole and complete. Suddenly, it's different. Waking up from the night with a gaping hole inside yourself, knowing that life will never be quite the same. That hollow feeling doesn't seem to go away. As you know that the trusted pal you once had laying at the edge of your bed each morning, scruffy and content. Will never be there to greet you ever again. Growing up with a dog, having only known a life with them, comes to a shocking halt when they leave you. Until you can find the strength in the loss.

A Dog Called Homeless written by Sarah Lean (2014) is a realistic fiction book about a girl that stopped talking to everyone, except her new friend who was blind and deaf. Cally, a fifth grader lost her mother a year ago. Cally could see her mother with a big silver-grey dog. Now, she knew the dog was not a ghost because others could see the dog. When Cally would tell her father she could see her mother, he did not believe her. Actually, she felt like nobody believed what she said. At school, Cally volunteered to do the sponsored silence fundraiser, where she would be silent for one school day. After that day she decided to remain silent, because no one listens to her anyway. Then, Cally, her brother, and father moved to a new apartment. Cally’s father

At first sight, service dogs look like any other dog. They are furry. They walk on all fours. They have a tail. But they have many differences from other dogs. Service dogs are well behaved and are obedient. They wear clothing that no other dog wears such as a vest to make people aware that they are service dogs. Service dogs perform tasks that no other dogs can do, like paying for meals and carrying objects for their owners, sometimes in a vest compartment like a backpack. Service dogs are unlike other dogs because they are trained to do tasks that human beings normally do, but can’t because of some disability. Service dogs help their owners navigate the world they live in by assisting their owners in overcoming day to day

Service and Therapy Dogs According to the Americans with Disabilities Act, “A service dog is any guide dog, signal dog, or other animal, individually trained to provide assistance to an individual with a disability,” (Levingson).

On Thursday, June 16th and 1:30 pm I and my service dog Murray were finishing our walk and as I exited the mail room I suddenly started hearing belligerent screaming. I looked around me not seeing anyone until I looked down and the resident for 105 and one of the girls who lives in 101 were sitting on the walkway. Immediately I picked up my dog and proceeded to walk away not wanting to have anything to do with what was occurring. However, as I walking away I realized the resident of 105 had been focusing her anger upon me. At this time I semi turned around not understanding what the issue was. Though, not having ever before spoken to her or the other individual nor know their names I was accused by 105 of destroying a plant that I did not know existed. She proceeded to go on threatening me with bodily harm and that she was going to call the police on me meanwhile the vulgar names and words never stopped. I stopped walking when she threatened to harm me again at that point I was halfway across the courtyard safely out of her reach and asked her why she was verbally attacking me explaining to her I did not know her and to please stop speaking to me. She proceeded to go on that it was me destroying these plants because I am such a bitch and she is going to get me when I don’t see it coming. At this time I proceeded to

The main conflict in each book that stood out to me was that no one would believe in the main characters. This stood out to me because they were all telling the truth but just because it didn’t sound possible or they didn’t want to believe it. They didn’t want to believe it just because it didn’t seem possible for the time traveler to travel even though the time traveler in "The Time Machine" had proof of time travel. In A Dog Called Homeless, no one believes Cally when she says she can her dead mother, even her dad because he thinks it impossible and doesn’t want to believe. For Two-Minute Drill, when Scott tries out for football and makes it no one believes he can play cause he’s a nerd, clumsy, and the new kid.

A harmless visit to the neighborhood pet store turns into a ruthless encounter for me. Every Saturday, Pecan (my dog) and I visit a local pet store to purchase food and treats for her. Pecan and I pass by a dozen of shelter volunteers eagerly showcasing homeless dogs before entering the pet store. Shelter volunteers are special because they are willing to devote their Saturday morning to help homeless pets. On the way I stop and great each volunteer and dog, then I walk away emotionally grieving and trying to holding back tears. My sadness soon turns into anger, when I realize I cannot adopt every homeless pet. The pet population is a increasing crisis in America. In this essay I will discuss the cause and effect of homeless

Houston has a major problem with homeless dogs. The CEO of Contraband Enterprise, LLC, a Chicago bred and Houston based record company set out to find solutions to the issue. On an early Sunday morning as Ace took a walk to a nearby Northwood Manor gas station he met a little friend. This friend is a small white dog with black and brown spots and an Illinois shaped black spot on her neck. Right away Ace named the dog Roxy.

Dogs make the best buddies and companions because dogs do not start drama with you, they cant tell you to stop doing this or stop doing that.They are so smart in a way that you cant imagine, and their reaction when  you come back from school is priceless.  And dogs do NOT discriminate, because I have seen that dogs have liked the homeless.
