If you're reading this and you are an adult this probably doesn't phase you. But if you are 12, 13, and so on.. Please listen.

So, you are 13 and you are telling me you are "in love". Most teenagers I see on Facebook and Twitter say that after three days in the relationship as well. Seriously? People throw I Love You around like they are saying hello. They marry each other on Facebook..then the next day after one fight, they're single. Those same people will post thing like "</3" or "I'll never love anybody the same".......Next day: Bob is in a relationship.

This bothers me because you are just wasting your life away. You are 13 and the things you care about in life are guys/girls, your cellphone, and the computer. You completely miss out on the real things in life. You just complain the whole time or you talk about your girlfriend/boyfriend the whole time. Love isn't making out with people, or even dating them. Love is seeing the truth inside someone. Looking in that person's eyes and seeing no flaws or past mistakes. That doesn't mean looking at a person and liking them because "his abs are SO HOT!". No. That is wrong. When you like someone based off of looks, you don't really like them. Your eyes do. But, if you love them for who they are, then your heart loves them. A lot of kids will say that when their in a relationship... but in reality, we all know they don't truly "love" them.

Also, after they break up..they just complain and say their life is over. IT'S NOT! Stop living life like everyone is going to die so you just HAVE to get a boyfriend/girlfriend. Just because your single doesn't mean anything. Teenagers are so, stupid. They have all these expectations on what a relationship is and what a perfect person is. When they "date", it's just them texting eachother. They never actually see each other.  I know I am a teen, but I am honestly not looking for a relationship, or a boyfriend. There are so many things to do before I grow older and can't do them. Like I said, life isn't worth it.

I can say, I love my dog more than I love guys. I know what you're thinking: "WOAH! She must be like an alien or something." No, I am not. I love my dog more because my dog loves me. It will never intentionally hurt me. It might accidentally jump on me or scratch me, but it never means too. It loves me for who I am on the inside. Its ALWAYS there for me, as if it can sense if I am sad. And it always seems to brighten my day. That is one reason dogs lives are so short. They learn to know what love truly is before humans do. Once they know what love is, they have no reason to stay on Earth. They go to Heaven with that love in their heart<3

Why do Dogs Eat Grass?

     Your outside on a hot summer day just doing yard work or hanging out. You turn around and your dog is over there eating grass and you wonder "What the heck are you doing!?".  You'd think that dogs diets were mainly carnivorous, meaning it should only eat meat. 

     But to make it worse, after your pup eats the grass...it comes back up. Why does your dog do this? Well, I'm going to answer that for you.

---------------------------------------------------------------------
     Dogs are mainly carnivorous, but they can also survive on a vegetarian diet. Cats on the other hand must eat meat to survive. Like all living creatures, dogs need a combination of fats, carbohydrates, proteins, vitamins, minerals, and water in a balanced diet that provides enough calories to meet their daily needs. 

     Don't worry, your dog isn't a psycho or a mental dog just because it eats grass. It is normal for a dog too, and if yours hasn't it probably will. But why do they throw up? or do they eat grass to throw up? Well, most veterinarians believe that they just like the taste, vomiting just follows. When canines consume grass, the grass will act as an irritant and will lead to vomit. 

    
     Some vets believe that dogs eat grass because their prepared diets are lacking in greens and so they eat grass.Often times they will say it is because of the certain dry food product given to the dog might not contain the vitamins and minerals needed.

     But don't worry, eating grass is considered "normal" for a dog. Make sure that you are giving your dog a healthy nutritious diet that provides a combination of fats, carbohydrates, proteins, vitamins, minerals, and water in a balanced diet that has enough calories to meet their daily needs.Also, be careful to check that the grass your pooch eats doesn't have any pesticides or other harmful chemicals.

Pit Bulls- Good Dog, Bad Rap.

     Now, I have posted something similar to this before, but I am just going to update it as I am still fighting for Pit Bulls.

     As some of you may have heard, Governor John Kasich  signed House Bill 14 which repealed a statewide discrimination law against dogs. Ohio is the only state in the U.S. where as if you own a Pit Bull -or any other dog that is muscular and has short haired who can be mistaken as a Pit Bull- it is automatically considered 'viscous'.

     Some animal lovers rejoiced with happiness while other ignorant people still assumed that the dog would kill you if it had a chance. Why do you think that? Did you hear it from the media? Have you ever even met one(and don't say your friend has and it was mean, that doesn't count)?

     I absolutely hate it when someone who doesn't even know the dog, goes around and tells people to hide their children and family because it is going to come and attack them. Really? Look at me. Even from what happened on 9/11, I don't hate Muslims. I haven't met one in person so why should I hate them. I love the quote from Nelson Mandela which said    "No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite."   I believe the same goes for the Pit Bull. You aren't born hating it, you learn to hate it from what you hear.

     PLENTY of people will disagree, but it is always the owners fault for a dog attack. It doesn't make sense to think other wise. I mean, whose fault is it for failing to train the dog properly? Whose fault is it for failing to socialize the dog properly? Whose fault is it for failing to control the dog or keep it on a leash? My point is responsible owners can prevent this.  You can take an animal to obedience class and teach it that biting people is wrong. Is it never going to nip you or bite you? No. They follow their instincts, and some dogs need alot of work to correct them. If you can't take the time out of your day or you can't afford it, then in my opinion you are dumb and selfish. IF that dog attacks someone because you wanted to spend that money on some Arbys or a couple packs of cigarettes, not only will the person who got attacked will suffer; you will have to pay a large fine and more importantly, your dog will probably have to e euthanized.

     Pit Bulls can be nice and loving! I bet you didn't know this, but the Pit Bull was declared best family dog in the 20th century. But, you probably still might hate them. You probably hear that a chihuahua is just as likely to attack a person as a Pit Bull, but you may think that the difference is that a Pit Bull is more dangerous. I do agree, all dogs can attack, but the difference is who can inflict more pain(Still the owners fault for an attack regardless though) People will say that they would rather be attacked by a German Shepherd than a Pit because a Pit can "lock its jaw". False. There is NO mechanism in the Pit Bull's jaw that allows it to lock. Some foolish people will even believe that Pit Bulls have natural steroids or enzymes in its body that makes it randomly attack. That's also false.

      Often times people don't read about their dog before they adopt it, and sometimes(almost every time they are euthanized though) a Pit Bull or a Pit Bull/Mix was fought by drug dealers for profit. Usually, a shelter will test an animal before declaring it "adoptable" but sometimes certain situations may remind a PB of its past or another dog will provoke it. But, again, only doing what the previous owner trained it to do. Just ask Michael Vick.

     In August 2007 an investigation began of a property in Surry County,Virginia, home of Michael Vick who was the quarter back of the Atlanta Falcons football team. OVER 70 dogs-most of which were Pit Bull Terriers- were seized from the fighting operation. Vick was suspended from the NFL and was ordered to pay the Atlanta Falcons a proportion of his earnings. Allegations included Vick's direct involvement in dog fighting, high-stakes gambling,and brutal executions of dogs. Brutal as in hanging, drowning, electrocuting, and shooting dogs. He was sentenced to 23 months in prison. Vick's response: "It's a call for me to really tighten down on who I'm trying to take care of.... Lesson learned for me."

     So, there is a proportion of his story. It goes to show you anyone can dog fight. Apparently, people claim that he is now a "good guy" and has "learned his lesson".  I sure hope so. Innocent dogs had to suffer to make a quick buck. I think he should have been in jail MUCH longer, I don't care who he is or what he does. If a human did all that to another human, they might have gotten life in prison or worse.

I love the Pit Bull myself. I don't recommend it for first time owners because they do take ALOT of work, training, and money. I do recommend if you are getting one to introduce it to your family and pets to insure that they can get along and no matter what you do, you MUST train it and bring it to obedience school!

P.S: If you disagree with any of this, PLEASE say why you disagree. Oh, and don't give me a story about a Pit Bull attacking some one, because you know my answer. If you disagree, tell me WHY and if you have met one in person, not if your mom has or if your best friend has..if YOU have. a good one.




 SO vicious right!?
     



    


  

Bullfighting? Do you approve of this!?

   Bullfighting is a common so called 'sport' that happens in mainly Portugal, Mexico, Spain and other European countries. It dates back 300 years and is a tradition in most of those countries. People on horse back will target the bull with brightly colored spears that look almost like tinsel. Most people think the color of the matadors cape is red to attract the bull. Well, cattle are color blind. The red cape is used to cover up the blood that is shed.
    People that are for bullfighting will often argue that it is a thrilling sport that involves skill and agility. Those people are usually very bias considering most of them are from or originate form bullfighting countries or bullfights. People who are against bull fighting say that it involves pointless suffering and cruelty to the animal. Each year, for 300 fights, 2,500 bulls are killed just in Portugal. 30,000 are killed in a ring in Spain every year as well. What some people don't realize is that multiple animals are being abuse. The horse calvalieros ride will clash into the bull, sometimes being injured.
   In Portugal, it is illegal to kill a bull in the ring, so it is removed and slaughtered because a bull can only fight once.
Only 52 deaths of humans have been counted since the 18th century. A bull dies every single bullfight and a human dies when the bull does what it was trained to do. People can't enter the ring without knowing the dangers, they know. The bull on the other hand,  does not know that it is going to take its last breaths that day.
   It is a tradition, but that is no legitimate reason to abuse, torture and kill God's gifts. It is SELFISH that we value human life more than any other animals life.  People who are for bullfighting will say thing like "Well, most of those haters eat beef right?" There is a difference. We need meat. We do not need to spear these animals and torture them. The same goes for "Running With The Bulls" What do you people have against these poor creatures.
  What makes the matter worse, the toreo will sometimes slice the bulls ears off when it dies and throw it into the crowd. The point  is that bull fighting should have been banned a long time ago just as bear-baiting was.
  
What Happens?

        The bull is abused for two days very harshly before a fight and is weakened, half blinded, and tortured. I many cases the bull will have wet newspaper stuffed in his ears, vaseline is rubbed into his eyes to blur his vision; cotton is stuffed up his nostrils to cut off his respiration and a needle is stuck into his genitals. In addition, they drug the bull to pep him up or slow him down. They stress the bull out by keeping hm in a small dark pen for a couple days to disorientate him. A trumpet is played in the last "act" to signal the death of the bull. The kill usually lasts 8 minutes and is done by the main matador. He is supposed to sever the artery near the heart with one thrust of the sword — in fact, this never happens. It often takes 2-3 times before the creature is mercifully released by death. By this time, the bull’s lungs and heart will be punctured and he always vomits blood. Sometimes, the bull will try to rise again on his knees, only to receive mutilation. He will fall down and be tortured further with no dignity to leave this world in peace. his ears and tail are cut off (often when he is fully conscious), and his broken, bleeding body is dragged around the ring by mules, to which he is attached by an apparatus made of wood and chains. Sickening.
   Like I said earlier, the bull is not the only one to be tortured. Hundreds of horses die when they are killed by the pain-crazed bull. They stuff the horses ears with wet newspaper blind fold it and cut the vocal cords so it is unable to scream. After a horse is injured, it is let out of the ring, given surgery, then put right back in. The horses are kept in crude conditions and their life expectancy is short.
   "But it is a part of our culture" some people would say. Well, that EXCUSE was used for: Witch-burning, Bear-baiting, and other evil events. "Culture" is not some magic word and is just labeling that is cruel and makes it sound OK. When someone is injured or killed in a bull fight, a rodeo, or running with the bulls. I have no sympathy for them. I could care less. You know the dangers of it before you do it. It is karma. Man abuses an animal, then the animal fights back. It is your own fault if you die or you are injured but the bull is always killed anyway. Who really wins here. And people call this an 'art' or a 'sport'. Sick!

Matador repeatedly stabbing a bull.

Cleveland Removes "Vicious Dog" Label on Pit Bulls

Pit Bull, Love Always <3

                     Pit Bulls are one of the most stereotyped dogs I have ever seen. They have been accused as a "vicious dog" by thousands of people who have never even met the dog! That is why I was so filled with joy when Cleveland removed the terrible label from the misconceived dog. It is always thee owners fault for an attack. You may disagree, but it is the owners fault for failing to socialize the dog, failing to train the dog, failing to keep the dog on a leash or in a fence. It is also the person the dog attacked who is to blame as well, most people should know to not stick your face in the dog's face (though most idiots still do it). Few people know to not scream, stare the dog in the eyes, run away, e.t.c. I love pit bulls and if one bit me I'd know that it is not their fault.
                 
                     What do you think when you hear the word Pit Bull? Do you think of a vicious, terrible killer dog? Why do you think of that picture? Did you actually meet a pit bull or are you just going off of what the media tells you? The media portrays the Pit Bull breed as a killer dog that will rip your face off when given the chance. The reason they stereotype the breed SO MUCH is because of the dog is so smart, willing, and strong and in the wrong hands, usually fought for money. People should know to stop believing what the media tells you. Just because one dog bites someone doesn't mean the whole breed is bad. The dog would never attack for no reason also! Stop being ignorant people! This is like blaming a race for being vicious for what a couple people did. Pit Bulls are not all vicious! They won't rip your face off for no reason! I have a list of myths and stereotypes about Pitts:

Myths & Stereotypes: Pit Bulls


Myth:  Pit Bulls have an enzyme in there body which makes them more prone to attack.
Fact: No, just like any other dog, With the right training, Pit Bulls can be loving animals.


Myth: Pit Bulls can lock their jaws.
Fact: NO! Pit Bulls are just like any other dog, they have no physical feature that allows them to lock their jaw.


Myth: Pit Bulls feel no pain.
Fact: Like any other dog, Pit Bulls CAN feel pain, there nervous system is built like a Golden Retriever for example. Yet, the myth is believed because many Pitts can be stubborn and in dog fights may appear to have no pain towards a bite.


Myth: A Pit Bull's brain grows too big for its skull, causing it to go insane.
Fact: Also been accused with Dobermans, in both cases proved totally untrue, and unfounded.


Myth: Pit Bulls attack for no reason.
Fact: NO! Many people believe that pit bulls are inherently aggressive and  attack their owners and other people. FALSE. Pit bulls, like any other dogs, do not exhibit aggressive behavior without reason or provocation. If a dog reacts aggressively, it is usually the result of:

• disease
• improper handling
• lack of socialization or training
• misreading the dog''s behavior.

Facts on the Breed 

• Pit bulls actually make great pets for families. Tests done by the American Temperament Test Society, pit bulls were generally less aggressive when faced with confrontational situations.
• Early in the 20th century, pit bulls were actually the number one family dog.
• Dog fighters use pit bulls breeds because they are strong, and have a desire to please their owners. Unfortunately, pit bulls'' abuse in this circumstance contributes to the negative myths surrounding them.
• Pit bulls can be loving animals even if they were trained "animal aggressive"
• Have been known to be therapy dogs because of their friendly disposition and ability to remain calm.

        Face it, Pit Bulls are stereotyped and most people are too ignorant to actually experience the good part of the breed. The dog breed most likely to bite was not the Pit Bull, Rottweiler, or German Shepherd, but …wait for it…the Dachshund. And second was the Chihuahua, followed by the Jack Russell Terrier.

ANY dog that bites though, always has a reason, and that peoples' problem. They accuse the Pitt for attacking a child for no reason or an adult for no reason.

If you disagree with any of this, please comment... Treat a dog as an individual, don't blame the whole breed.

Some People! The Cattle Hell~

Now this is absolutely sick. Hopefully theses people aren't ever accepted in Heaven. And NO, they should never get a second chance, these animals didn't, why should they!? I hope these people die a terrible death. But I don't know, this is one of the worst deaths I have seen. I thought people were taught right from wrong, but obviously not. It is as if Satin himself sent his minions to kill these helpless animals. This is your beef! YOUR BEEF! Now do you want to buy it!? I wouldn't!

THE FOLLOWING IS DISTURBING TO SOME VIEWERS! 

This is Smithfield pork, YOUR bacon! They cram pigs in cages. I suggest eating ORGANIC MEAT or being a vegetarian. I do realize it is like saying a bear shouldn't eat deer....ITS NOT THE SAME! A bear doesn't cram the deer in cages. A bear doesn't abuse the deer as if it wasn't real. A bear doesn't take the deer away from its children, e.t.c. So yes, you can go through life without bacon or pork. Or at least know where your getting your meat from. Try organic meat, a place maybe where they don't abuse the animals.

Lookin' For Some Doggies?

I know a FANTASTIC website that has great dogs. They are the best by far in my opinion(:
