Dog Persuasive Speech

Ladies and Gentlemen of the Denver City Council, today I would like to talk to you about the city of Denver enforcing a dangerous dog law instead of breed specific legislation, because the enforcement of breed specific legislation is not the solution to dangerous dogs in the community. I plan on showing how Denver could change their law to make a difference to the quality of dogs living in this great city.

Specific Purpose: I will persuade my audience that pit bulls are not a dangerous breed by nature.

Preview Statement: I am going to address what the problem with mills are, and the reasons why one should consider adopting a pet instead of buying one from a pet store or a mill.

Specific Purpose: To persuade my students to volunteer and train a dog for 4 Paws University

When I say I have a pit bull does that frighten you? For most people, it does, even though it shouldn’t. I feel the dog restrictions in Shullsburg are limiting the lifestyles for both specific dog breeds as well as their owners. Did you know that in a way pit bulls are not even a breed? There are seven different dog breeds that are classified as pits. My puppy, a terrier, lab, retriever, and pit bull mix, is both loving and affectionate, but because she is part pit bull many already have a bad image plastered in their heads without even meeting her. When uneducated people say bad things about pit bulls, it devastates me. My personal opinion to this topic may be different than yours; however, I’m just asking you to have an open-mind and take into consideration what I am saying. Maybe at the end, you will start to feel why I am so heartbroken by what people have said about this specific breed. When people stereotype a pit bull as “vicious” they are limiting the capabilities as well as opportunities for this breed. My dog has to be muzzled, on a four-foot leash and walked by someone 16 years of age or older. At the

My companion animal placement was with a program that organises the fostering and adoptions of greyhounds, often getting 30 dogs into foster homes and 30 dogs into adoptive homes every month. As such, they and the veterinary clinic they associate closely with are in charge of establishing a preventative healthcare routine for hundreds of dogs through their foster programs and attempting to persuade adopters to maintain this routine.

Introduction: Today I will persuading my audience the benefits of getting a dog as a pet. Dogs can offer companionship, protection and even improve your health. Sixty eight percent of U.S households own a pet according to the 2017-2018 National Pet Owners Survey calculated by American Pet Products Association (APPA), and majority of the pets owned are dogs, weighing in at sixty percent. Dogs are domesticated animals that consist of various breeds such as Yorkie Terriers, German shepherds and more. There are over three hundred breeds according to the World Canine organization. This organization is the largest registry of certified dog breeds. This canine organization recognizes three hundred and thirty nine breeds of dogs which are classified into ten groups based on the dog’s function or size. There are various unique breeds that can fit into one’s specific lifestyle, giving no excuse not to have a dog to compliment ones personality.

Transition: All dogs bite and we want to keep our communities safe. So, what’s a better

Specific Purpose: To persuade my audience to petition against Maryland’s law to identify “Pit Bulls” as a dangerous breed of dog.

In 2000, 68 million dogs were owned in the United States. In 2017, a total of around 89.7 million dogs in the United States alone, lived in a household. As the years past more and more people are adopting dogs. Some of those owners are new to having a pet and should learn how to take care of them.

More times than not- pit bulls are falsely seen as cruel, ferocious, blood thirsty animals. The media is partially to blame for evoking all of this fear and anxiety. All I can say is, own one before you judge one! I have been a proud owner of two pit bulls for over eight years now and I have nothing but fun, loving times to report about these cuddling beasts.

I have always felt strongly about animal rights, and cruelty to animals, so I decided to do my speech on something less talked about and often avoided, which is animal vivisection- in other words, animal testing. The public are blinded by cover ups and lies that make animal testing seem a lot better than it really is which is why I think it is important to get all the facts out there and why I think it should be banned.

Adding a dog to your family can be one of the most fun and rewarding things. Dogs are friendly, loyal, protective and pure entertainment. They are always good at putting a smile on your face and they can make even the worst days, better. In this paper, I will be discussing the best way, in my opinion to add a furry friend to your family, adopting. I will be discussing the pros and cons and the many benefits that go into adopting a dog. In general, adopting a dog is the best option to find your new friend, but there can be a lot that goes into it. Doing your research and being prepared are some of the most important parts of rescuing a dog.

How many of you have pets? A dog or a cat? Did anyone get it from an animal shelter? …Okay, so about ______. Fortunately, some positive answers, but this is not always true.

Most of you probably have a pet of your own. Maybe a dog named Max or a cat named Oliver. Could you imagine seeing them in terrible pain? I honestly don't think there will be one student in this class that would volunteer to let their own pet be tortured for any reason. Am I wrong?
