Rambo: A Short Story

The following weekend afternoon Mr. Tim comes to get Fido and Mr. Tim has the leash, and no Timmy so Fido decided not to go he runs away in the back yard and hides, hides real good but it does not matter Mr. Tim finds him and hitches him up to the leash, and off they go but this time, Fido is left in the car in the shade under a tree, with the window cracked for two hours while Mr. Tim in inside of an apartment building

The doorbell rings and his owner opened the door only slightly to answer. He peeks his head through the door and sees an officer standing outside his door. The officer had been called only because of a neighbor complaint. Tail wagging, he ran happily over to the officer, his owner yelling at the officer that he was friendly. The officer points a gun at the dog and fires. It all happens so fast. His owner runs to his side, still in complete shock. Even as he was dying in her arms, his tail was still wagging. Pit bulls are the most misunderstood category of dog in the world. From fight dogs, to kennels, to finding a loving home. These dogs are not what you expect. While they do have a bit of a history so does every other dog, Pit bulls are not

I pulled up in Joe’s yard and to this day, do not regret leaving with a “stinking pit bull”. His driveway was a gravel, dusty drive, you could hear “pop, pop, pop!”- from the pointy gravel connecting with the tires. When I finally arrived to the house (which seemed like an eternity), his back yard looked like a prison yard. There was nothing but galvanized, chain link fence fortifying the whole perimeter of his backyard. The aroma I was smelling was somewhat like a dog pound mixed with animal feces. Out of the blue, “Tank”, one of Joe’s own pit bulls, awaken from his nap and decided to grace me with his beast-like appearance. Then, from a dog house in the yard that matched the prison- like vibe I was already gathering; with planks hanging down and missing shingles on the roof- arose this malicious, merciless looking animal with four legs and a wagging

Those 2 stories show that sometimes no matter how the pit bull was raised, the dogs continue being as loving and playful as before. Yes, these are just 2 stories and probably wouldn’t change someone’s opinion on pit bulls, but there are many other stories like Keba’s and Oogy’s. Don’t blame the breed, don’t blame the owner. Sometimes, it’s just how the dog is.

Catalina was playing outside the house with Pedro. She was a tall skinny girl, with ivy eyes and a small face. Pedro was a puppy of a german shepherd. They were running, chasing, tackling each other to get the branch. Pedro jumped off of Catalina, and started to run with the branch. “Hey no fair!”, yelled Catalina. She jumped up and started after him. “Catalina! Get Pedro, we are going to the market.”, said Mom. “ Ok, coming,” yelled Catalina,”. She ran over to where Pedro was and grabbed the bone and yelled,”Pedro come here and I win!“.”Arf” barked Pedro.

Not only are the dogs’ notoriety hurt, but their physical and emotional well-being is harmed too. While walking my sister’s pitbulls at a dog park, I saw many people walk away from us or watch the dogs carefully in fear. Also, a few of our guests have expressed their fear of the dogs simply because they were pit bulls. Unfortunately, dogs can sense anxiety and tension; emotional trauma can result from the neglect and lack of attention. According to Judy Cohen and John Richardson, the pit bull has been portrayed as ‘‘the archetype of canine evil, predators of the defenseless. Unpredictable companions that kill and maim without discretion. Walking horror shows bred with an appetite for violence” (285). Also, 65% of people surveyed by Cohen and Richardson also say even pit bulls who seem good-natured can suddenly turn vicious (285). Because of this negative perspective about pit bulls, the dogs’ lives are endangered. Dr. Emily Weiss collected data from a variety of dog shelters and found that pitbulls are the most euthanized breed in shelters. Over 25,000 pitbulls were put to death in 45 shelters in 2014; the next highest euthanized breed was the labrador retriever at only 7,000 dogs. Many people have wrongfully given pit bulls a false reputation because they believe these dogs are naturally cold-hearted, and these poor dogs continue to suffer as a

This just shows how great Pit bulls are with kids. All the Pit bulls I met that were trained well-loved people and they especially loved kids, but most parents have the tendency to pull their kids away from Pit bulls they meet, but then they let their kid go towards other breeds of dogs and the reason they do this is because of the negative way they have seen Pit bulls portrayed. My Pit bull was able to disprove these false assumptions made on his breed by proving to people that where you come from doesn't define you, but how you treat people does. In fact, he was so kind to people that sometimes it would shock them because they thought Pit bulls were supposed to be this vicious breed that could not be controlled.

It was a bright sunny day when a boy came out to play, he had a funny name it was trey. His friends Alec and Fey played catch all morning long when they noticed a strange spotted thing. As they got closer it was a lonely little dog looking for food. Alex, Trey, and Fey brought it inside and fed it some steak they gave it some water and named the little dog spotter. Because the dog had little black spots. The next week they looked around but couldn't find the dog. They searched high and low all throughout their house but they could not find their new dog spotter. When they went outside to search they noticed they forgot to close their backyard gate. Alec and Fey cried, but Trey the oldest kept on looking for he knew he would find their new

First, Buddy was having the time of his life. He was a happy dog that did anything and got anything he wanted in life. However everything changed when he was kidnapped and sold to dog traders. He tried to keep a positive outlook on the situation, but the people he was sold to beat him with wooden clubs until he obeyed their commands. The men were training the kidnapped dogs to pull sleds with heavy loads. He started getting into dog fights which wasn’t what Buddy normally did. He was starting to be wild. In one of the fights between Buddy and another dog Spitz, the lead sled dog, Buddy killed him and took his spot as lead dog.

As William, John, and Kathy went in there a little puppy sat there in a ball on the ground. They went up to it to pet it but when they go close the dog barked. But they got closer and closer and the dog kept barking. They got close enough to touch it and he started to become more friendly. But William didn’t want a dog right now because it was a new house.

“He’s mine and I’ll do what I want to with him. Shut the hell up and mind your own damned business,” he yelled getting in the truck and sped down the road. Within a mile, Bill saw the same truck, the dog was hanging over the side, he honked his horn and motioned for the driver to stop, but he continued. Bill pulled closer and yelled for him to stop at once, the driver ignored him, but he finally pulled to the side of the road.

A 17-year-old Chihuahua named blind Chinese Crested SweePee Rambo, whose feet are like a frog out, wears a flowing sore and dog diapers; this year has been crowned the world's ugliest dog.

One day a midage dude named bud, was walking his new service dog named barley in the hot summer, in florida on October 30,1955 where it was about 95 degrees outside. He just got home with a new 3 year old dog and he wanted to take him out for a walk. So he packed a bag of water and food just in case the heat got to them but mostly the water because of the heat. He got a new collar and a leash, he put them both on the dog, and then headed out the door but almost forgot the bag with everything in it which would have been bad. He got

In 2008, I spent the summer with my Uncle, Aunt and 2 cousins in Missouri. They picked me up at the airport, and the car ride was filled with discussion about a puppy they had just gotten 2 days prior. It was explained that my cousins wanted a dog since their friends’ family had gotten a dog recently. My Uncle, happy to oblige, stopped at a neighbor’s house one day, who was giving away puppies they could not care for, as is common in small town America. He picked out the cutest one and went on his way. The family was so happy to have “Roxy” in their home and on their farm.
