Persuasive Essay On Slaughtering A Dog

“The use of canines in the past provided law enforcement with a valuable tool, which if used properly, can improve both the efficiency and effectiveness of policing, all the while serving as an important public relations tool” (O’Heare). Some may argue that the uses of canines are classified as “Weapons”, but it is only an

Dogs are what their owners make of them, they are shere products of their environments and feed off of how their owners treat them. For example, in America pit bulls, over the years have been portrayed as harmful or aggressive. These views have lead to manying uncompassionate acts towards this lost breed. Such as, selling the dogs for drugs to people who could care less about them to forcing pitbulls in harmful dog fights. In America’s society today some often view pitbulls as just a way of breeding dogs. This means that they essentially are not taking part in what it actually means to have a pet. People are suppose to provide, feed, care, and love their dogs and in some cases that’s not their important objective. The underlying issue that

The issue in this case is whether under Tennessee Code Annotated § 44-8-413, our client, Kevin Gates, can be held responsible for his neighbor’s dog bite injuries, depending on his knowledge of the potentially “dangerous propensities” of his three dogs.

Preblich, on December 13, 1984, the plaintiff was driving through an alley behind his residence when he noticed that the lights of the defendants’ car were on. Through the back door of the house, he informed the defendant, and a friend of the defendant who had borrowed the car, that the lights were on. As the defendant’s friend opened the door of the home to go turn off the lights, the defendants two year old, thirty pound spaniel ran out the door and down the footpath towards the alleyway. Unbeknownst to the plaintiff, as the plaintiff walked down the footpath towards his car, the spaniel ran behind him, bumping into the back of the plaintiff's legs, causing him to lose his balance and fall. As a result of the fall, the plaintiff broke his wrist, and allegedly sustained back injuries. Boitz v. Preblich, 405 N.W.2d 907, 909 (Minn. Ct. App. 1987). In this case, the court held that injuries inflicted by a dog outside the scope of a vicious attack are not, as a matter of law, excluded from coverage under the Minnesota dog owner's liability statute. The court reasoned that the statute does not indicate a limitation to vicious attacks, as the phrase "or injures" fully encompasses injuries other than those sustained by an attack. Id. at 910. The court also held that since the phrase “or injures” comprises injuries other than those from an attack, a dog owner may also be held liable under the Minnesota statute for injuries caused by the dog’s accidental or innocent

In “No, I Do Not Want to Pet Your Dog” the main idea is that there is now a phenomenon in our nation that insinuates everyone has to like dogs. However, the author of this story Farhad Manjoo quickly disagrees with this stance. Manjoo elaborates on his feelings by pointing out dogs are beginning to pop up in places that are usually reserved for humans and discusses the lack of boundaries that come with dogs (225). Some dog owners have trouble with the thought of their pet doing any wrong and assume that they’re harmless in all environments. The author is clearly not sold on this assumption and shows this through his sarcasm throughout the story. “Oh, OK then! I guess I’ll just take your word for it, and forget for the moment that 1,000 Americans

A man in Coventry, England recently bought two pitbulls, soon after he bought them police showed up to his home and took his dogs away from him. He had went to court to fight for his dogs back and he was able to get them back because they were properly trained dogs. In order to get that back he had to pay a fee and he now has to keep the dogs muzzled in public, always on a leash, and always have insurance. That is not the only event in which officials have tried to take away dogs from their owners. In Denver officials are being sued for banning the breed of dog because it affects the Americans with Disabilities Act. A veteran has pitbull service dog for his PTSD and in 2009 he had gotten his dog taken away from him. Once again the dog was returned but the law became that he had to muzzle him in public. He sued the city saying that if the dog had to be outside with a muzzle he wouldn't be able to his job at full potential as a service dog. This proves that if they can be used as service dogs they are able to be easily trained and they can’t be

Imagine you are a proud dog owner, having adopted a puppy from a local rescue not knowing what breed your new “bundle of joy” is. As your puppy turns into an adult, it becomes obvious that your dog is a mix or full-bred American Pit Bull Terrier. You run into trouble moving into certain communities, ranging from neighborhoods with homeowners associations to apartment complexes. Even your insurance company is placing regulations and additional fees on you based solely on the breed of your dog. If you are living in a town that places a law forbidding your dog’s breed following a high profile dog bite case, you face the problem of having to move or the possibility for your dog to be seized and possibly euthanized.

Recently, the amendment of animal control laws on pit bull ban in Montreal has risen many controversial opinions related to matter as a “public safety” after the death of a 55-year-old woman by the brutal attack of dog which is thought as a pit bull. Pit pulls are regarded as American Staffordshire terriers, Staffordshire bull terriers, American pit bull terriers and any mix breed dogs that have a part of those breeds or a dog with similar physical characteristics. The legislation prohibits pit bull, restrains the existing pit bull and makes stricter penalties for dogs which pose the danger to the public (“Montreal passes controversial”, 2016). The council’s decision about this issue is questionable whether to ensure the public safety, the city of Montreal should not adopt this controversial legislation which is unfair, ineffective and unenforceable.

It is often said that a dog is a man’s best friend. In the last 14,000 years, dogs have accompanied man by helping him hunt, guard, and protect. In our modern world, dogs help us combat in war, search-and-rescue, guide the blind, deaf, discapacitated, rehabilitate patients in therapy, aid law enforcement, and are part of our family as beloved pets (Coren). Although canine superstars such as Lassie, Old Yeller, and Rin Tin Tin portray the perfect dog we all want in our lives, these ideals are far from the truth. Many first-time dog owners expect dogs to know behaviors such as how to walk on a leash, not bite, not destroy the house, and in addition to many others. In reality, dogs must be trained on what their handler wants them to do. It is
