Canine play bow has an essential function. The play bow is a stable posture from which the dog can move in different directions and allow for stretching the leg muscles before and during the game. In the play bow, the dog’s head is lower than the head of another dog in a non-threating position. Play bows do not occur in every action or every second. The bow is used before and after other actions that can be misinterpreted by the other dog. The bow can be used immediately before or after bites during the play. Social play in coyotes happens after dominance relationships have been established and it is evident who is dominant and who is…
He had found the poor lab in an alleyway with bruises up and down its body. But it had love in its eyes, he thought. The Pit Bull had no empathy. That was the difference between them. It had begun moving slowly at the tent. The boy quickly bit off a piece of duct tape and wrapped his dog’s wound. It would take both of them. The menacing terrier broke into a sprint with gnashing teeth. The boy had no weapons but his fists and friend. His dog braved and lunged at the beast. The boy did as well, punching, kicking, and yelling. The creature probably weighed twice what he did. His dog let out a cry, but he could not tell if it was owing to the preexisting injury or a fresh wound. He could barely see through his drenched hair and the sheets of rain. The beast, unfeeling, did not yelp when he caught its jaw with a sharp blow. It simply paused, stared at him, and backed away slowly. It seemed bewildered, but its beady eyes exhibited no signs of pain. It was…

Animal activist groups, veterinarians, and canine organizations are among the first to stand up and say that something must be done to protect people against dog attacks. They feel strictly enforced dog control laws which hold all dog owners accountable for their animals' behaviors are important in controlling dangerous dogs (Weiss). On the other hand, many animal activist groups believe government officials should not write these laws until they have been properly educated in the following: The impact of dogs' ancestral lineage on their behavior, which dogs are potentially more dangerous and why, the reasons breed specific legislation should not be implemented, and solutions for solving the problems.…

On January 2015, a report came out saying that over the past three years, on average every year, there were one thousand nine hundred animal cruelty cases (Statistic Brain Research Institute). Of those reported cases, nine percent were from animal fighting. Dog fighting is a major moral issue across the nation. Dog fighting is the act of forcing dogs to fight to the death in a pit or box for the enjoyment of their owners and the public. The argument against dog fighting could be argued through the fact that dogs are moral agents, virtues ethics, utilitarianism and the doctrine of double effect because it is morally wrong to inflict a lifetime of pain onto a dog or any animal for the pursuit of pleasure or just for the sake of their own rights.…

The dog is as seen, yet there is always more to tell. When the foolishness of the man is outplayed by the force of nature in which is the dogs natural instincts. When faced with the decision to carry on or turn back the foolishness of the man is one sided in the dilemma. The man, which decides to move forward, is fought by the fierce conditions of the cold. “Fifty below zero”, with pressing winds makes for unfortunate passing for the man who doesn't realize what that dangers mean for him. The dog, unknowing of temperatures, is still wittily knowing of how cold it is. This can be sought as understanding of the dog as a natural force of nature that is taken for granted by man.…
