Book Report My book ‘Endangered’ by Eliot Schrefer, was about a young girl named Sophie who had to fight to stay alive, taking care of not just herself, but a baby bonobo she named Otto. My book interested me in many ways. One way it interested me was because it showed the bond humans can have with an animal, so therefor we should stop people from killing animals. My quote I used is “The saddest aspect of life right now is that science gathers knowledge faster than society gathers wisdom”. I chose this quote because it tells us that killing animals happens faster than someone gathering knowledge.
Baker adopted him from the humane society 3 years ago. We were a mixed family and they were not what you would call friends. Johnny was lonely after the loss of his longtime companion and “seeing eye dog”, Zed, who had died a year earlier and Blue wanted nothing to do with him. He was used to being singular. He loved playing with dogs at the park but had no affection for
Ellie’s decisive ability and her morals are thrown into chaos when she arrives at the family house and finds her dogs dead. She remains in a leadership position when she finds the eldest pet still alive and tells the others to help it while she runs inside to see what had happened to her parents. As Ellie wrote after the traumatic incident, “I knew that nothing sp awful could have happened to the dogs unless something more awful could have happened to my parents.” Although she says she had lost all rational thought. She still made good decision when the tragic events that had happened were unravelling before her. “They lay beside their little galvanized iron humpies, flies all over them, oblivious to the last warmth of the sun”.
The heart needs to pump faster or harder to complete this job. During a 400m race, this would enhance performance by removing unnecessary waste products from the muscles and supplying more oxygen to the muscles.

It is calculated by stroke volume x heart rate.
Six months ago my roommate, Aly, and I, knowing full and well what would happen if we were to get caught, decided we wanted to get a dog. We knew if we did that we could get kicked out of our apartment. At that moment in time she and I did not care. We wanted a companion, one of the fury, four-legged kind that barked. The day was gray and the sky was softly spitting on the windshield as we drove to the pound.
The Puppy Mill Plague The breeding and living conditions in puppy mills are ethically wrong, and stronger legislation is needed to ensure the protection of dogs that are being bred and raised for human companionship. Dogs are bred at a greater frequency than they naturally should be, which creates health problems for both the mothers and their offspring. Housing conditions at puppy mills are almost unilaterally overcrowded, and dogs may live outdoors entirely exposed to the elements. Dogs that come from puppy mills often experience social problems. Because of the cruelty that prevails at puppy mills across the country, animal rights groups work diligently to promote new legislation the ban inhumane practices at puppy mills.
Ezekiel I was twelve, the first time Ezekiel contacted me. I had to get a new phone, since my puppy thought it would be a good idea to devour the old one. I was one of those greedy kids who demanded the latest and greatest technology. I first asked for a Blackberry, and upon denial, I pouted for quite some time. Since we were relatively poor, and I was incredibly picky, my Grandpa settled things and said he would find the exact model of phone I had previously on eBay or Craigslist, since the model was no longer sold in stores.
I could never keep any pet alive longer than a year, my parent are very proud of me for taking on a bigger responsibly.

Noelle Stewart PSY 252 Shawn Burn January 30, 2012 Social Psych Self-Assessment #1: Option 2 Experience with Cognitive Dissonance Running is a passion of mine that was suddenly interrupted when I was only seventeen. I loved the feeling of escaping everyday realties, running alone on trails and finding new routes that nobody knew I was on. I was warned numerous times about the uncertainties and scares of running alone, but I was in denial that such horrible events could happen to an innocent girl like me. After school one day in late October, as I was tying my shoes and getting ready for my run, my mom came into my room with a worried look on her face. She told me that last week there was an unidentified man hiding in the bushes
English 1-2, Period 1 June 7, 2010 Chased by Dogs It all happened on a Tuesday June 2007 there were three days of school left. The bell had just rang and my mom had just called me to tell me that that she was coming home late so I had to walk home.
