Imagine you were in a hospital and your doctor mentions pet therapy and you decide to try it out. Your doctor arranges for you to meet with someone in the morning to tell you all about it. Soon after that, a dog and its handler visit you in your room and you are invited to pet the dog, play with it, and ask questions to the owner. After the visit you realize you're smiling, less tired, and more optimistic, and you can't wait to tell your friends and family about it, and can't wait for tomorrow to

Natural infections have been observed in dogs, cattle, sheep, goats, horses, and deer. In the lab, researchers have successful induced infections in mice, rats, dogs, foxes, goats, cats, sheep, coyotes, pigs, gerbils, rabbits, sheep, and cattle (a review). This coccidian parasite is spread transplacentally with vertical route being the most common source of transmission in cattle. This route is made possible by N. caninum’s life cycle that consists of three infectious

fights, cake with enough sugar to cause instantaneous tooth decay, and silly party games; however, the party proved to be the antithesis of my expectations. Greedy hands grappled for plates of cake as my friend tore into her gifts like a deranged gerbil shredding a cardboard box, wrapping paper carnage littering the floor. In the blink of an eye it was over, and cell phones materialized in everyone's hands. Cell phones had always seemed superfluous, but in that moment I would’ve

My Family Essay My mom or dad is walking into the house, the dog is barking at nothing, the kittens are fighting, my brother is cursing at his video game, the alarm is saying very loudly “front door” and i’m upstairs devouring a lime flavored popsicle (or some cheese balls) while playing a video game. That’s pretty much what you would expect from a first glance at my family. My family is a somewhat hard working, hilarious (except for my dad) good hearted (we try to be at least) and in all likelihood

Normally the research such as biomedical researches, drug tests and toxicology tests are conducted in universities, medical schools, and pharmaceutical companies. Scientists use many types of animals in their experiments such as guinea pigs, hamsters, gerbils, monkeys, chimpanzees, rats, mice, dogs and cats. Around 50-100 millions vertebrates are used in experiments annually and in United States, the number of rats and mice used are 20 million annually. The articles that are going to be discussed in this
