The emotional appeal in this picture is the dog that is chained up looks really sad. I don’t know one person that doesn’t either tear up or get sad when they see the pictures or commercials from the ASPCA. Dogs are most referred to as a man’s best friends and when you see one being treated like this it can really tug on someone’s heart and make them really emotional and want to help. The ASPCA is the biggest foundation in the United States for saving animals who are being neglected or abused by other people. At the bottom it says “Make a Monthly Gift” and this is a credible source because they even have a TV show that shows them saving the animals. “60 cents won’t buy much these days….. but for 60 cents A DAY you can help rescue animals in

  • Burkhard Bilger's The Last Meow

    578 Words  | 2 Pages

    In 2016, the American Pet Products Association found that pet owners are expected to spend 62.75 billion dollars on their pets. This amount is about 4% higher than the amount from 2015 which was 60.28 billion dollars. It’s sad that people spend this much money on their pets, but what’s even worse is that pets don’t have a say in their owners decisions. If a pet is suffering they probably don’t want to live anymore but their owners keep pushing them by paying whatever amount is necessary to keep them alive. In “the Last Meow”, Billger mentions that a German countess left her 80 million dollar estate to her dog Gunther. Instead of doing this she could have donated it to a better

The show is a positive example of how Pit Bulls can be rehabilitated, while at the same time helping parolees to adjust back into society, giving both the dog and the parolee a new purpose in life. The majority of these dogs have been rescued from owners who have abandoned the dog, and left them to die. Both the Pit Bull and parolee have been through simular situations, escaping death or the dealth penalty, and offered a second chance at life

  • Petco Code Of Ethics

    1770 Words  | 4 Pages

    When thinking about a business one may ponder the several aspects of how a business functions. One of the most important aspects to a company are their ethical obligations. Many businesses have these obligations but not all recognize them, which can create an issue between the consumers and the suppliers. Petco is an animal supplies company that deals in the sales of all animal related products (food, leashes, and so much more). It is reasonable to question what ethical obligations Petco has and if they are acting on these responsibilities. One must outline the different actions that Petco has as an animal supplies company to keep the animals in their possession healthy and well-cared for. For many businesses dealing with

  • Taking a Brief Look the Humane Society

    746 Words  | 2 Pages

    The humane society is a nonprofit organization, which is a corporation or an association that conducts business for the benefit of the general public without shareholders and without a profit motive. The humane society is also a 501c, a nonprofit American tax-exempt organization. It was founded in 1954 by Fred Myers (1904-1963), its first name was the National Humane Society, later named The Humane Society of the United States (HSUS). Their first mission was to decrease suffering of livestock during slaughter. The Humane Slaughter Act passed in 1958, this would change the lives of millions of animals around America. The Humane Society began investigating animal experimentation around the 1950s to gather evidence on animal neglect or suffering. Myers said,” every humane society should be actively concerned about the treatment accorded to such a vast number of animals.” In 1961 HSUS investigated dog dealers in the U.S. to gain support for a law to be passed that would prevent cruelty to animals in laboratories. The investigation lasted 5 years, then in February 1966 life magazine published an essay about dog dealers and thousands of Americans wrote to their congressional representatives and demanded action to protect animals and stop pet theft. Later that year the Animal Welfare Act of 1966 was passed, the second major federal humane law passed since world war II. Other goals they had during this time were: reduce homeless dogs and cats, reform inhumane euthanasia practices, redact abuses by pet stores and pet breeding trades, and help wildlife and marine life. The head of the humane society organization are the board of directors, which has about 15 members who are all volunteers. Then there is the executive board ...

  • Ross Abelow Research Paper

    Ross Abelow is not the type of person that sits around and shake his head about conditions affecting our four legged friends. He took matters into his own hands and decided to start a fund-raiser for the city's animals. The fund-raiser was started on January 13. The fund-raisers goal is to raise $5,000 for the cause. The funds are going to be donated to the shelter to cover food, medical care, and blankets for the animals. This is a very worthwhile cause that will surely help to save hundreds or perhaps thousands of animals that might otherwise perish. Clearly, the main focus is on providing those funds to keep the shelters open, especially in the winter. He would like everyone to check out his GoFundMe page for more on the charity work.

  • Argument for Stopping Animal Abuse

    2126 Words  | 5 Pages

    Abuse towards animals is recognized by many in the commercials shown on television, including the Sarah McLaughlin song and the pictures of animals starved and beaten. The commercials are shown quite regularly and give viewers a small look into the world of animal cruelty. What the commercials do not show, however, are the countless cases of people getting away with violence, as well as the hundreds of thousands of animals who did not live to make the commercials. Television, radio, and internet ads often depict and portray the lives of animals living in shelters, and ask the public to donate money each month for the cause. Without a doubt, this is the extent of what many people can say their experience with animal cruelty consists of: pictures and short video clips of half-dead dogs and cats left to die in over-crowded housing.

  • Low Cost Veterinary Care Essay

    1198 Words  | 3 Pages

    Having an animal can bring great joy to an individual or a family, however financial difficulties can force many families to give up their animals. The American Kennel Club (AKC) projects the average cost of owning dog at 3085 dollars for the first year. The most expensive part of raising a dog was 650 dollars going towards veterinary care (How Much Does It Cost to Raise a Dog?). For a family or individual with low income or unexpected finances these cost can be the difference between keeping an animal and giving them up to a shelter. Shelters in America are making great strides in adopting out animals, however, according to the ASPCA, there is still 7.6 million companion animals entering shelter each year (Shelter Intake and Surrender), and millions of strays living in the streets (Pet Statistics). To lower the overpopulation of pets in America, shelters need to focus on implementing preventive measures, particular low cost veterinary care programs. Low cost veterinary programs would reduce shelter and stray populations, because they reduce the cost of basic veterinary care, like vaccines and flea and tick medications, help reduce the

  • Prevention Of Cruelty To Animals (ASPCA)

    Just over half are taken to shelters, left with mental scars of being abused made forever homes seem hopeless. While others are left, abandoned on without homes, and starved. Without the ASPCA not a single animal would have a chance, searching near and far, high and low, light and dark, the ASPCA is committed. You would never think to search inside a laboratory, yet they have rescued over 100 million animals from mice to birds, escaping scientific experiments that severely injured or could kill them with chemical, drug, food, and even cosmetic testings, instead they save lives (Humane Society of Grande Valley). Dark corner alleys or underground basements hold just worse sights, harsh dog owners betting hundreds of dollars on animal fightings. While training these innocent dogs, make them into vicious, blood thirsty creatures. The ASPCA can help with this as well, sending out “undercover” volunteers to turn in the people committing illegal crimes and saving the harmed dogs. Helping these animals is their one mission, most people believe this never happens. Yet we need them as much as they need

  • Personal Narrative: Animal Shelters

    1527 Words  | 4 Pages

    When looking at an animal what do you see? Are you able to feel their pain, happiness, or doubts? Spending time at my local animal shelter opened my eyes to the emotions these animals were feeling. Being kept in a cage not knowing where you are and that you are not with your family is scary. What do we expect these animals to do besides sit in the corner and cower? Not only was I able to connect on such an emotional level with them but I felt I was able to show them a little love as well.
