Infectious epidemics and pandemics have happened all through mankind's history. “They remain the prime cause of death worldwide and will not be conquered during our lifetimes.” The flu of 1918 was one of the deadliest epidemics in history. “It infected an estimated 500 million people worldwide–about one-third of the planet’s population at the time–and killed an estimated 20 million to 50 million victims. More than 25 percent of the U.S. population became sick, and some 675,000 Americans died during the pandemic.” No one knew how the virus spread, there were no antibiotics to fight it, and no flu shots to prevent it. In the final year of World War I, it struck terror in the hearts of people all across Europe and left more death in its wake than the combined military actions of the combatants. “It killed more Americans in a few months than World War I, World War II, the Korean War, and the

The dog soldiers were one of six elite fighting group of the Cheyenne tribe. Dog soldiers also helped in the tribe with solving murders, robberies, and other crimes. The Dog soldiers group began in early 1800. The warriors were the last line of defense to the tribe if anything terrible happened. The these highly trained Native Americans were outfitted with a particular sash which trailed the ground, they would usually wear war paint on the faces, and the highest ranked chief would wear a headdress full of owl feathers; the four bravest warriors in battles would wear a dog rope across their chest. They would how a skunk hide belt around their hips. During a battle, the warriors would tether themselves to the ground to prove they would not run

Throughout history the human race has been faced with one key factor that no one civilization has even been able to beat, not the might of the Roman-Byzantine Empire, nor the combined efforts of the entirety of Europe and their scholars could defeat this recurring foe. Pandemics, from the Greek ‘pan’ meaning all, and ‘demos’ meaning people (Harper Etymonline.com), are these indiscriminate killers whom care not for your social standing be it wealth, fame, or glory. Humans have contested with disease ever since the infantile stages of the species, but the ability of it to spread was severely inhibited by the fact that humans stayed in small groups of 10-30 people at most, giving the virus or disease severely hampered virulence. It was not till humans began gathering in larger, more permanent settlements such as the early Classical cities of Athens, Ramses, and Rome, that the issue of sanitation and disease came into effect. This has not to say that our issues with sanitation and disease prevention have stopped, rather have they been brought forward into the limelight, many nations around the world today have issues with age old diseases and give rise to extremely deadly new viruses of their own. To fully understand the effect of pandemics in history, then one must consider three major plagues of our recorded history, the first pandemic ‘Plague of Athens’, the pivotal ‘Plague of Justinian’, and the infamous ‘Black Death’

The domestic dog has to be one of the most unique animals that the human had ever bred. All dogs were formed differently and for separate reasons; whether it be for their looks or for their personal attributes, the dog has been evolved around humans and yet many breeds were created by humans themselves. I also believe that having a dog is a necessity to having a balanced life, just how Cesar Millan was quoted on the Brainy Quote web page “The dog can only become what's in your bubble. The dog is imitating the energy that is in your bubble. You are the source, the feast of energy. If you feel anxious, the dog becomes anxious with you. If you become nervous, the dog wakes up nervous with you”. Your dog runs off of your actions and emotions

In all the american wars we, as people have worked hard, but there was more than just people on the battlefield. Animals ranging from as simple as dogs, to as strange as slugs have been said to be the key to saving soldiers lives.They have faced as much pain and suffering as soldiers have and we have put these animals in dangerous places because they were our only chance of survival. Lots of animals like, slugs, chickens, and canaries were used to detect poisonous gases. Dogs and pigeons have all been used as messengers. Even glow worms, dolphins, and sealions were apart of the military. Animals contributed their strength, sweat, and lives to winning the wars.

Dogs had a vital part to play in World War One as the complexes of trenches spread throughout the Western Front. It is estimated that by 1918, Germany had employed 30,000 dogs, Britain, France and Belgian over 20,000 and Italy 3000. America, at first, did not use dogs except to utilise a few hundred from the Allies for specific missions. Later, after a chance stowaway, the USA produced the most decorated and highly-ranked service dog in military history, Sergeant Stubby. Lots of dog breeds were used during World War One, but the most popular type of dogs were medium-sized, intelligent and trainable breeds.

Sled dog racing is a sport of racing sleds pulled by certain breeds of dogs, usually over snow-covered courses in Northern Alaska. (“Dog Sled Racing”) Northern Alaska is a hot spot for sled dog racing because it typically stays covered in snow all year around and has beautiful scenery. The best sled dog racing environments are ones with plenty of fluffy snow and open terrain. (“Dog Sledding Locations”) The Iditarod race is one of the most famous sled dog race around. The race is held in Alaska during the month of March and covers 1,100 miles of open terrain; this race is the longest in Alaska since the year of 1967! (“Dog Sled Racing”) About 1,000 or more dogs are included in this race equalling to about seventy-five teams. During this race,

Where disease doesn’t destroy humanity, humanity manages to do so with our own weapons anyways. In Phillip K. Dick’s Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep, humanity has blown itself up in yet another war, World War Terminus, which rages on for so long and so effectively destroys the world, “no one today remembered why the war had come about or who, if anyone, had won. The dust which had contaminated most of the planet’s surface had originated in no country, and no one, even the wartime enemy, had planned on it. First, strangely, the owls had died.” The nuclear dust begins to kill off entire species of animals, particularly those susceptible to it, such as insects, birds, and amphibians, driving them to extinction. As everyone realized the consequences of the war, humanity started to develop a new-found empathy, both for the remaining animals on Earth and their fellow humans, all in the form of Mercerism, a theology based around reaching out to each other through the use of the empathy box, which is “is the most personal possession you have!

Dogs were one of the greatest alliances the U.S has joined with and this alliance would continue to grow and improve war efforts.

Dog fighting is a very cruel thing, and it is happening right under our noses. It is illegal to fight a dog in all fifty states. By being an observer at a dog fight, it is against the law in forty-seven states. So why do people continue this cruel practice? The answer seems to be money. Some people who breed dogs for fighting can sell their puppies for up to two thousand dollars. Even though fighting dogs is making money, it is cruel since pain is inflicted on the dogs; the ASPCA and the Humane Society are trying to prevent this with proper training.

In 2002 the Hungarian government solicited consultation with the turkish government in regards to the pet food import ban Turkey had placed in March 2001 against all European countries with the intention to prevent the spread of BSE (Bovine Spongiform Encephalopety). Hungary processed pet food did not contain the BSE substance in question but it was still banned from importation into Turkey due to the Turkish government's concern about cross infection. In June 2001 the turkish government provided explanation for their ban in which the hungarian government responded by halting the use of raw materials extracted from ruminants in their processed pet food (WTO). Regardless of these maneuvers Hungary was still placed on the banned import list which caused the Hungarian government to begin seeking outside international dispute forces for help in resolving the issue. Hungary inquired into rather or not turkey had formally

It was a hot day on the last day of school in southern seattle where Malachi lived. As Malachi walked home with his brother Chris something very weird happened. He saw a bunch of dogs but they all had the same face, the face of a doge. “Um, this is scary!” said Chris. “Agreed.” said Malachi as they ran as fast as the could back home. “Dinner will be ready soon” said Malachi’s mom as they walked in the door.
