Every night before I went to bed I would pray and ask for a puppy for Christmas. As Christmas came and went‚ I had started to lose hope of ever being able to get a puppy. However‚ little did I know that my prayers would soon be answered. It was Saturday‚ February 26‚ 2010.

Pets for the Elderly Most people in the English language have heard the saying “an apple a day keeps the doctor away.” While that very well may‚ or may not‚ be true—what about pets? Wouldn’t it be better if that Granny Smith were a Husky puppy? If that Delicious Red were a fluffy‚ gray kitten who purrs in your lap? Don’t misunderstand me‚ I’m not condoning eating the family pet‚ but instead supporting the idea that owning an animal can help your‚ and your family’s health. In 1999‚ people who

Pets should be treated like family members. I know people that consider their pets a part of their families. I strongly agree with that stance towards the animals we have in our homes. For me‚ treating a pet like a family member is a good lesson in responsibility. In addition‚ this attitude makes the animals we possess feel happier‚ and guarantees their being satisfied with our care. We should treat pets like members of our families‚ because the animals that we take care of give us lessons

Pet peeves Some of my pet peeves are smoking‚ people going into my room‚ people saying the phrase “yah know” (when I don’t)‚ when people try to act all cool‚ when people take my sarcasm seriously‚ another is when I pick up a rock and skip it I all- of-a- sudden get a feeling to grap another and maybe the next one that stands out. The smoking part comes from the fact that the bathrooms in this school always smell like crap because of all the stuff that people do in them. It’s almost enough to make

What is love? I never knew until I was fourteen year old at my first horse show. My family has always told me that when I loved someone or something unconditionally for exactly what it was without expecting anything in return‚ and when I was away from whatever I loved I would feel like something was missing‚ and only then would I truly understand love. At that first horse show I understood what they told me. For me my first horse show changed my life‚ it made me feel so alive and I never wanted

AN UNUSUAL PET Guinness was probably the most gorgeous pup you had ever seen. When he first came to stay with Kathy and James he was only six weeks old and they had chosen him specially from a litter of pups in a nearby pet shop. They brought Guinness home in a little basket and placed him in his new room which had been carefully prepared for the pup. He had toys‚ a soft cuddly bed and a litter tray. He had fun running around in the large room with the new vinyl floor and no furniture to get in his

Owning an unusual pet was a way to show wealth and power to others. These were known as Menageries. A menagerie is a private collection of animals‚ which is not open to the public as a zoo is in our times now. When a family decides to buy a family pet‚ generally they look at fancy fish‚ sweet little kittens or even a high-spirited puppy. They would not think about going out and buying a lion for their young child to play with. However‚ many people get unusual pets. Yet‚ it does affect society
