How spaying/neutering makes you an animal hero
The first thing that I wanted to be when I was to become a dog hero.I wanted to spend my life saving every dog out there. But as I grew up and became involved with PAWS I discovered that it was impossible to save every dog out there. I thought of the best way that I can help my dog and other dogs out there from animal abuse or neglect. So how could we possibly save dogs and be their hero? So I am here to tell you about how can you be a dog hero through spaying/neutering. The main point of my speech are the health benefits for your pets, how it prevents animal cruelty, how it gives a chance for other dogs to have a home. Going into my first point spaying your female pets and neutering your

By spaying/neutering your pets, you'd be able to control pet population because pet overpopulation is the number one cause of animal cruelty. When people become uncomfortable because of having too many pets some of them call up PAWS and ask if we can take in their pets that have reproduced uncontrollably which is not our job or they turn to abandon their pets out in the streets. These pets now become vulnerable to getting run over or targeted by cruel persons. Stray pets that are being fed but not neutered actually reproduce at a faster rate. More stray pets translate to more incident of bites which often forces the government to launch a massive collect and kill stray animals program. Neutering also means fewer dogs being euthanized at dog pounds. Dogs pounds collect stray pets where they are kept for 5 days or 7 at maximum and if no one claims them and shelter's cannot offer a space because of being fully loaded - they are being put down. An average city pound in our country puts down about 200 dogs every month, that's about 2,400 dogs a year times the number of cities that has animal pounds. So my last point is that we could be their hero because we’d be able to increase their chances of being
...tting worse and worse as the years go on. Many different organizations are trying to help out with what they can. Having a pet can be a responsibility that many are not ready for. Having a dog or cat as a pet can become expensive and every time consuming, and that is why there are so many animals that live on the streets and why overpopulation keeps increasing year after year. Seeing stray animals has become a normal thing to see for some communities around the world but these strays can be the home and breading ground for diseases that can be fatal. If an animal is saved from living on the streets it is sent to an animal shelter where it may still suffer and be in a cage for the rest of its life. Animal shelters are becoming over crowded and having to constantly make room for more animals, and that is causing the number of dogs and cats that are euthanized to rise.

Throughout our lives, we carry and value our own beliefs. As we face different challenges, we may be persuaded into making certain choices. However, no matter how convincing a person may be, in the end we always have the last word. Nobody likes being told what to do but we do like to hear other opinions for a different perspective. The proper way of using rhetoric is through a confident tone that is knowledgeable of their topic. The speaker should have integrity and be selfless in the sense that they are understanding towards their audience.

The fierce hand strikes again. There is no sense of motherly or fatherly love when sharp pains stem from vermillion scars appearing on your undeveloped and sensitive hand. Would you like to experience this everlasting pain?
Did you know, according to the “Pet Statistics” from ASPCA, there were about 5,000 animal shelters in the United States? In those shelters, about 5-7 million animals were rescued each year and approximately 3-4 million of them were euthanized. That was nearly half to the animal rescued. In other words, thousands of animals were euthanized daily. However, many of these euthanized animals were healthy, treatable, and adoptable pets. What caused these adoptable companions to be euthanized in animal shelters? The major cause was the overpopulation of animals without a home. Moreover, the irresponsible owners and breeders that did not sterilize their animals caused the overpopulation of animals.
Have you ever wondered, how it feels to be in a place where is overcrowded, and you are next in line to be euthanize? This is the life of the shelter animal when no one adopts them for a certain period of time. According to American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals or known as ASPCA, each year, approximately 2.7 million animals are euthanized, which are 1.2 million dogs and 1.4 million cats. I am sure; most of you have some point in your life, owned a dog or a cat. Whether you are an animal lover or not, you don’t want to see innocent animals losing their lives. I personally have adopted a dog from a local shelter. There is no doubt that pet adoption from a shelter is a satisfying decision that will save innocent
Pets that have been altered live longer. When altered, a canine will increase its life an average of 1 to 3 years, while felines increase their average life by 3 to 5 years. Altered animals have a very low to almost no risk of mammary gland tumors and cancer, perianal tumors, and prostate, uterine, ovarian and testicular cancers (“Spay/Neuter Benefits”). Lifespans of females increase from being spayed as it helps prevent uterine infections and breast tumors. Many of these tumors are malignant in about 50 percent of dogs and 90 percent of cats ("Spay/Neuter Your Pet"). Spaying also eliminates possible complications associated with mating, pregnancy and birth. Similar to females, males also have health benefits associated with neutering. Neutering male pets helps to prevent testicular cancer and some prostate problems such as benign prostatic hyperplasia ("Spaying and Neutering"). Neutering also reduces the risk of feline AIDS, feline immunodeficiency virus or FIV, in male cats ("Benefits of Spaying and
Poisoning is illness caused by eating, drinking, touching, or inhaling a harmful substance. The damaging effects on a child's health will vary depending on the type of poison, the amount of exposure, the duration of exposure before treatment, and the height and weight of the child. These effects may range from mild to very severe or even fatal. ExitCare ImageMost poisonings take place in the home and involve common household products.
According to the ASPCA, 7.6 million companion animals enter shelters every year. Of those, 3.9 million are dogs and 3.4 million are cats. Every year, around 2.7 million animals are euthanized. Euthanasia is the process of ending an animal's life with drugs. These are senseless deaths that could be minimized, or even eliminated, through spaying and neutering animals or adopting from shelters and not breeders. Whether the animal is a stray or a family pet, spaying or neutering could save generations of future puppies and kittens from dying in shelters.
Most Australians enjoy a snag from the barbie, or a Parma from the local pub, but do you know how bad meat and animal products can be for your overall health and the environment? World meat free day was first introduced in 2015 by the United Nations, however has been present in the media during June 2017, where the topic arose of “should Australia be encouraging more meat free days?”. The organisation aims to raise awareness of the impact meat production has on the world, and pledges individuals to skip consuming meat for just one day. Today I hope to change at least one of your opinions on the consumption of meat, and hopefully limit the amount of meat consumed by the population of this classroom. Today, I will be discussing the benefits of reducing meat consumption on individuals, the environment and the animals.
According to humana.com, dogs are great for your heart, relieve stress and depression, unite you into a community, will encourage exercise and even give you a source of comfort. Dogs are basically angels brought to us by the gods, so we should treat them like that. Instead, 7.6 million dogs a year are imprisoned in a shelter and treated like dirt. When I grow up and purchase my own house, I already know that I’ll want to inherit dogs of my own, but I have made the decision to adopt and save, not shop.
The closest animal shelter is in Eden NC. People do not need to waste gas money to go that far when we can have one in Madison. It would be a more convenient way for people to build the community stronger and to bring pets that are in need. If people would care just about aninals as much as they do with recycling in this world, people could put a stop to pet overpopulation. Over 8 million dogs and cats are killed each year in county shelters and humane societies. These unwanted pets are a result of irresponsible pet owners that allow their pets to breed and run free creating the problem of pet overpopulation. Many of these lost animals may end up on the laboratory table. Millions more lose their lives from starvation, disease, moving vehicles, and owner abuse. Puppies sold in pet shops are raised in "puppy mills," breeding kennels that house the dogs in cramped and filthy conditions. Females are bred until their bodies give out and then they are killed. All of these deaths are preventable.- ("The Causes of Pet Overpopulation"). This is a problem that comes from the owner when they let their pet run wild, which is causing pet overpopulation to increase. The only way that you are going to prevent this overpopulation is if we get these pets neutered to stop the prevention- ("Pet Overpopulation"). The American Humane Association encourages the veterinary profession to assist, whenever and however possible, in reducing the number of unwanted pets. This involvement includes supporting the neutering of cats and dogs adopted from public or private animal care and control facilities – thereby controlling the ongoing contribution of offspring to pet overpopulation- ("Pet
