Mother tended to blame others for Muggs’ actions. On several different occasions mother would blame the people Muggs bit instead of Muggs. One occasion was on page 3 paragraph 4, “then it was all over it; Muggs never bit anyone more than once at a time. Mother always mentioned that as an argument in his favor, she was forever defending him.” This cited evidence states that mother would often defend Muggs, even when he was in the wrong. Another time when mother blamed someone else for Muggs’ actions was on page 3 paragraph 5, “ Mother was holding the thought the very next morning when Muggs got the iceman but mother blamed that slip up on the iceman. “ if you didn't think he would bite you, he wouldn't.” mother blamed the slip up on the iceman

In paragraph 4, page 3, the narrator mentions that Muggs never went after someone more than once, at least at that same time.

Malcolm Galdwell wrote this article using Cesar Millan's experiences to show how nonverbal communication can take place and it's importance. His article is well written out, it uses many situations between a woman and a child, but also many situations between a man and dogs, whom can't communicate verbally. The article does not discriminate nor appear to be bias, but rather just informs the reader of nonverbal communication that can take place in our daily lives without us thinking about it.

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

Throughout the course of this story, Mother constantly blames others for Muggs’ violent behavior. Several times she resorts to completely irrational excuses for why it is never Muggs’ fault. Evidence of this is shown when Muggs bit Lieutenant-Governor Malloy in paragraph 7. Mother claims that it is never Mugg’s fault when he bites people, but the fault of those bitten. More evidence of mother blaming others for Muggs’ actions is when he bites the Iceman. She tells the iceman in paragraph 5 “If you didn’t think he would bite you, he wouldn’t.” One more piece of evidence that Mother would always blame others for Muggs’ actions is when the narrator grabs the dog by his tail.

Laurie Halsie Anderson has created a book, surrounding the idea of growing strength, clearly stated by the bloom that Melinda has endured and her journey to reach inner peace. Can you imagine, being raped, getting drunk, losing all of your friends, and learning your parents have been possibly cheating on each other, all in one night, then being forced to relive that night every time you see your rapist, your ex-friend, or even a tree?

In addition, Melinda has to live knowing that her parents are forcing themselves to stay in a failing marriage to make her “happy” and sacrificing their own happiness for hers.

Anton Chekhov’s The Lady with the Dog title seems to point to how the main characters first meet each other, though the capitalization of the words Lady and Dog might point that it has another meaning. The title then would not be about how Dmitri first knew Anna, but what their roles are at the beginning of the story. Dmitri was a dog, a beast, a man who seduces women and when he received what he wants leaves with just memories of the encounter and no remorse. While Anna is a lady, mannered, pure, and wholesome. The story follows the two and how their love for one another changes them, from a dog to a man.

Dog’s Death by John Updike really touched me when I read it for the first time. His use of imagery in this poem is very touching. He makes the reader relate to the death of the dog by showing through his words the emotions of what the dog is going through as well as what his owners are feeling. This paper will show how I think the author was trying to use imagery to show the love between the dog and his owners.

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 the story “ The Dog That Bit People”, by James Thurber,mother tends to defend the Airedale’s actions and blame the other people for them. “ He bit a congressman who had called to see my father on business. My mother had never liked the Congressman she said the signs of his horoscope showed he couldn’t be trusted” as well as “ “I wouldn’t be associated with such a man,” mother said. “Muggs could read him like a book.”” On page two in paragraph three of “The Dog That Bit People” James Thurber gives an example of how mother made an excuse as to why the Airedale bit people by blaming them. However, in that paragraph it explains how she even had to persuade herself that it had been for the best that he had bitten the Congressman, even though
