Graduation Speech: Ransom

Now that you have settled on the type of dog and age you’re looking for, you have to find the dog! There are so many options to this. You can try to find one from a shelter, which is a perfect idea if you are looking for an older dog and do not have a specific breed. You have the option of finding a pet store that sells dogs. I settled on finding a personal breeder who sold puppies.

Proposition B Brittany Woolsey Specific Purpose: To persuade my audience to change Proposition B. Thesis Statement: Proposition B: the puppy mill law needs changed due to the harsh conditions breeders have their dogs in, dog socialization, and the current law doesn't cover Introduction I. Whenever people order a puppy off of next day pets or online through a breeder and have it shipped all they see is their new little ball of fluff, missing out on everything that goes on A. What they fail to see is the mother and father of this pup in a 3 by 2 feet metal cage with B. Getting no attention whatsoever, barely getting enough food and II.

Just like most people, you would prefer to bring home a puppy rather that a grown one. Normally, the puppy are sold at age eight weeks and up. Miniature goldendoodles are extremely adorable at this stage so first thing that you need to do is avoid crushing it when you try to cuddle the poor thing.

We want to make sure the mother is comfortable and we want to make sure nothing happens to the puppies. When you talk to any puppy miller they probably will say that they sacrifice their time and effort into the breeding of the dogs, but they will probably never talk to you about the long nights of keeping watch over their 5 litters at once. They just leave the mother by themselves and when they realize that the mother had her litter they just check to make sure everything is alive. They don’t care about the individual health of the puppy. I mean there are 6 more where that came from right? But of corse they will check the health of the mother because they don’t want to be out another source of their

In order to maximise profits, puppy mills sell approximately 500,000 puppies in a single year as female dogs are often bred at every opportunity with little to no recovery time between litters. This mistake often ends in their puppies being born with poor health and in extreme cases, major deformities.

Anyone selling a litter of three or more pups would also have to apply for a

If you want to your dog to have puppies, make sure you follow the tips below in order to ensure that your dog is healthy and ready for the task of being a mother to a litter of puppies.

Weeks passed by which seemed more like month. Week after week I went and played with the retriever puppies, it was amazing how they were so many different colors ranging form a light rusty red to a super light tan. I was in love with the little light tan girl. Each time I visited I watched and studied how they interacted; did they bark, bite, sleep, fight. This was very important to me to judge whether or not this puppy at only two then three, four, five, six, seven and then finally eight weeks old could potential make the difference in my future.

Raising a puppy is not all that easy when you start to think about how much money, and how much time you are going to have to spend with it. Lets say you just bought a puppy and you leave it at home because you work 12 hours a day, is that puppy really going to be happy? And what about potty training it? If you give it no attention it will never learn to be able to do the things it needs to do to live by itself. You have to spend time with it, take it outside, give it food, play with it, so it knows you and has a bond with

Every dog is a responsibility, and it takes a kind hearted person to go through the process of adoption. Through shelters it’s about an hour process to adopt. They ask for your current pets (if there is any) vet, the phone number of the vet, every one who lives in the house phone number, so they can call and see if they are okay with having a new furry friend in the house. They give scenarios that could possibly happen with a new puppy in the house for example, what do you do if the puppy is digging in the yard? Or what do you do if the mailman comes to the door and the dog starts barking? The process is long but it is worth it. The shelters even off puppy training classes that’ll teach them household manners, which includes potty training, leash training so that they will be able to go on walks without having to wear a harness. You get so much out of adoption that you don’t get from pet stores that will not offer. With my new adoption I was offered classes for him. Puppy classes, intermediate, therapy dogs, than k9 classes.

First of all, you will want to consider the expenses of dog ownership. Whether you are adopting or purchasing one from a store or breeder, you will not only incur initial charges, but also health and welfare cost for the life of the newest member of your family. Vaccines are a vital element in a dog’s wellbeing and in most states rabies shots are required. Nutrition, toys, and training will no doubt add to the cost of pet ownership.

At this point, in Ottawa, Ontario I; Margaret Ross had spent months saving up and begging for a dog of my own. Our red bungalow home my father inherited from his late parents that had moved him from Halifax to Ottawa in the late fifties.

While cats are bred too, it isn’t to the same extent as dogs and cats aren’t typically bred for a particular ability like dogs are. Taking care of a little puppy is like taking care of a new born baby. You constantly have to watch them and know what they’re doing. Unlike a cat where they are given a toy and they will play with it for hours. Training a puppy isn’t the same as training a cat. With a new puppy you have to train them to go to the bathroom outside. Not anywhere in the house. A puppy can only hold on an hour for every month of his or her age plus another hour. So if a puppy is 2 months old it can only hold for three hours. The key is to prevent mistakes and establish good habits early. Cats generally don’t go outside to take care of business. Cats have a litter box in the house. Most kittens will readily adapt to a litter box, especially if they were raised with a mother cat. If they pee on the carpet the owner should drag them to their box and force them to dig. But with a puppy you try to make them stop and hurry them outside. Training a pet commands is also different. Dogs will sit, lie down, and heel on command. Cats on the other hand will just smirk and walk away.

The thought of owning or bringing home a cute adorable puppy, or kitten, for the first time can be an emotional and exciting time for families. Most pets, while they are young, receive lots of love and attention from children and their owners, but what happens when the pets grow and get older? Not every pet is brought to or born into a responsible home. Some pets that are no longer wanted, are left behind or dumped out of town because it is "easier" than finding them a new home. According to PETA, 6 million cats and dogs enter an animal shelter every year in the United States, pets that are abandoned. The city of Raymondville TX, needs to open a local animal shelter to help prevent animal abandonment and the over population of pets and
