Physical Therapy for Abandoned and Abused Animals
For this research project I’ve chosen the topic of Physical Therapy for Abandoned and Abused Animals. This topic relates to my life because my dog, Max, was abandoned. It also relates to my life by my career path of becoming a Sports Physical Therapist for the NFL (National Football League) or MLB (Major League Baseball). The topic that I have chosen falls under the category Community and Service. I want to raise awareness throughout the community on physical therapy for abandoned and abused animals. No animal should be abandoned or abused. This is why I want to make a fresh, clean start and give animals the love and affection that they need in order to maintain a happy life. Though with this baby step animals can be on their way to a better, happier life rather than a tragic ending. Techniques that I used for my research project were news articles, animal abuse cases, informational articles, and of mental and physical effects of animal abuse and abandonment. These resources were very helpful because they gave me a wider range of knowledge on my topic. I decided on a survey because I wanted to know how people were aware, what they believe should be done, what they should do, and how they
2 contribute a helping hand to stop this alarming issue. The survey aided me by the realization that people were aware and willing to help though did not know where to begin. Through the process of research and also through my research skills I was able to learn my writing level, impacts on animals, and my sympathy which became of me when writing this research project. I found my primary source through classmates, family, and friends. I choose these research methods because I knew these were reliable sources, informational, and could help me along the way to writing my project for the present audience and communities that are to become aware.
