The hound dog had appeared outside Guy Montag’s house and he is afraid. Montag resembles fear when he says “The hound, he thought. It’s out there tonight. It’s out there now. If I opened the window” (Bradbury 45).
They took each single dog and lifted them into there nice and fresh car. We arrived at the small, quaint house and they started by bathing all of us. Rufus, Herman, Scruffy and every other dog was washed, and brushed which was something they have never gotten to experience. Next they were fed. But, it wasn’t covered in mold, it wasn’t old, and it wasn’t cold.
Then he rolled slowly over and faced the wall and lay silent.” (Steinbeck, page 49). Carlson didn’t want that dog in the bunkhouse anymore because the dog was really sick. The dog could barely eat, he stank, he had arthritis, the dog could barely move. He wasn't useful anymore.
‘Jus my pup,’ he said sadly. ‘Jus' my little pup”(Steinbeck 84-85). Even though a second earlier he was yelling at the puppy now he is regretting it. Lennie’s sporadic behavior represents the light and dark of human nature. Even though Lennie really cares for his puppy he couldn’t help getting mad at it.
First things first, we unpacked and settled into the guest rooms. Following us every step we took was Uncles Kevin’s precious and miniature yorkie, Mason. Not bigger than my forearm the dog pranced slightly underneath you. When we had finished we sat in the living room. Insuring there was nothing on either of our clothes, my brother and I carefully sat on the Italian white couch.
The dead dog became the major symbol of house’s alienation. The system let the injured and exhausted animal in, but did not do anything to try to improve its condition. It returned to habitual schedule that was a more important link to the past than the family’s pet. “The dog frothed at the mouth, lying at the door, sniffing, its eyes turned to fire. It ran wildly in circles, biting at its tail, spun in a frenzy, and died” (Bradbury 2).
The services that working dogs provide are as important as the jobs of the soldiers, medics, firefighters, and rescue teams of our nation. Working dogs live to do their job and Just as men and women are recruited, trained, and assigned to special tasks so are working dogs. They are selected and paired with a suitable trainer where they begin a life long career of protective service to the country we call home. Because of their exceptional drive, dedication, and unconditional love service dogs receive veterinary care that far exceeds that of the average pet. It seems only natural that working dogs would receive the very best veterinary care available.

Imagine one day you are in a crowded area and all of a sudden you can't breath and are panicking because there are so many people around you.
Dogs are considered man’s best friend. Since the dawn of man, our ancestors have either been afraid of the dog’s ancestor the wolf, or used them to aid them activities such as hunting. Now we have evolved alongside dogs and we have helped breed them to our liking and to having them be useful to us. Nowadays dogs our usually just used as household pets, guard dogs, and service dogs. Service dogs have become the elite dogs due to their enhanced training and bred genetics they are definitely good at what they do.
The last thing George Dixon expected, or wanted, to meet in an apartments on the seventeenth floor was this enormous Great Dane with an old tennis ball in his mouth. When Professor Werner called, "Come on in," and George opened the door, the only thing that greeted him was that dog, who knocked him back against the wall. "Play with the dog, Dixon. I’ll be out in a minute," the professor said from somewhere back in the apartment.
Then, the house recognizes the dog’s whine and lets it into the house. After the dog frantically runs around the house, looking for any sign of life, it collapses and dies, presumably to radiation poisoning, after realizing the house is empty. The house then takes the dog's corpse and burns it in the incinerator. The dog acts as a symbol of all life. First, it renters the house, then it dies, and the house moves on
He stood out among the forlorn pit bulls and abandoned mutts stuck in cages at the animal shelter in Upper Manhattan: an underfed, 50-pound mix of Labrador and Great Dane with a messy, jet-black coat. David Burke saw him there that Christmastime, in 2011, took him home to the apartment he shares with his daughter, named him Duke and nursed him back to health with regular meals and nighttime romps in Central Park. Duke got his bark back. He found his legs. He chased tennis balls and sniffed out raccoons and, after four years with the Burke family, filled out his frame with an extra 40 pounds — a long way from the dog that rescuers had said was found dumped along the side of the Mosholu Parkway, in the Bronx.

Service dogs are not only used for people that are disabled but they are used in the military. These military service dogs are sometimes called war dogs.
In a study taken by a research team from Utah on the behavioral and psychological differences between abused dogs versus normal dogs, it was found that abused dogs are more aggressive and fearful towards unfamiliar people (Becker 2015). This is one of the major reasons why it is difficult to care for abused dogs, as people who try to help the dog are rejected because of the dog’s fear and aggression towards them. We would think that logically, the abused dog would fear its owner and try finding someone better to look after them, but the dog does not and instead returns to its abusive home. Although the dog knows that it will suffer when it returns, the dog would rather take its beatings then venture into the unknown where good people may be, because it fears it may be treated worse. This dog, like an abused child, is unaware of the kind-hearted people that exist in the world, as it has experienced so much pain it cannot trust anyone.
