The use of dogs in the opening chapter of the novel, further suggests that dogs will be important figures in the novel. Linking in to Heathcliff’s “savage” qualities in the novel (which are hugely linked to dogs) is his treatment of Isabella Linton’s springer, Fanny. Heathcliff uses a handkerchief to hang the dog by his neck on a bridle hook. The condition, in which Nelly finds Isabella’s dog, is a metaphor for Isabella’s situation in her relationship with Heathcliff; her physical maladies represent the restrictive nature that her marriage with Heathcliff will possess, like the dog who’s suffering results from the hanging. Aside from the suffering, the dog’s physical restrictions are also a representation of the new boundaries that Heathcliff presents to her life.

Due to the high demand most pet stores get their puppies from brokers rather than the actual breeder. Some brokers get their puppies from puppy mills. According to HelpingAnimals.com, “At puppy mills, dogs are bred for quantity, not quality, so unmonitored genetic defects and personality disorder that are passed from generation to generation are common”.

Should Proposition 26 have been passed? Last week, the state of Mississippi cast their votes on amendment 26, more commonly known as “The Personhood Amendment.” If passed, this amendment would have changed the definition of a ‘person’, giving rights to the unborn from the moment of conception.

Dear Editor, I would like to respond to Hans Wergin’s letter about abandoned dogs. I strongly disagree with Hans Wergin and feel that his idea of making people register as dog owners is of little value. The government should take other actions for tackling this severe problem.
