151 Words1 Pages
Animals at the Vanderburgh Humane Society got involved in the Halloween spirit Tuesday. Staff at the VHS not only served candy for the kids but provided appropriate treats for their four legged friends.

VHS officials hope by opening up their doors for the holiday they would get a different set of eyes on the adoptable pets.

"We just thought it would be a really nice way to get some people to come by and do something for free with their kids if they are already out in costume anyway because we 're open to the public anyway from 12 to 6 so we just thought we 'd add a Halloween twist to our normal day," says VHS Development Coordinator Amanda Coburn.

In the article “Using Holistic and Ethical Practices with Emotional Support Animal Requests” written by Leslie Stewart, Timothy Hakenewerth, Peter Rabinowitz, and Heather Fowler, although the guidelines and differentiating factors between service animals and emotional support animals are unclear, the text in which you receive these facts, should be incredibly clear. In this case, the article proposes that emotional support animals should not be considered service animals and should be prohibited in public areas. Whether the text promotes or degrades ESAs (Emotional Support Animals), the text should be reliable, credible, accurate, current, and have a purpose in its preaching. Stewart is clear when she says “ESAs are not service animals and

Madison Bumgarner Mrs. Gallos English III Honors 22 March 2018 Is Your Service Dog Legally Certified? Even though many people believe emotional support dogs are considered service dogs and should have the same rights as the others, owners of service dogs are treated unfairly because of the increase in numbers of fake service dogs. This affects the ability for one to use a service dog to its full potential. People cannot be asked to leave a public place if the business thinks it is a fake dog because some service dogs are simply under-trained. The population of those using fake service dogs or emotional support animals are ruining the ability for the disabled to use them without being questioned.

Statistics are often seen in the media, and use by various groups to act as factual information that scientifically backs the claims of the group, or so they say. There have been many accounts of statistics misused or misrepresented. As seen in the article “Nine out of ten Statistics are taken out of Context,” the statistics used in medical testing on animals has often been taken out of context and misrepresented by several different animal rights groups. It does not come as a surprise that a group opposed to a practice would use whatever data they can to further their position. Saying that something is 90% ineffective and thus should not be used is a fairly impressive number to have on your side.

We all may have thought about volunteering at an animal shelter at one point in our lives not knowing about the benefits it would give. Though some may argue that animal shelters already have the help they need, animal shelters are always in need of help and are thankful to those who give it. Animals would get a better chance at adoption, you will get to know their personalities and help them get adopted, and improve your emotions and health through volunteer work. If we were to volunteer at an animal shelter then we would have given the animals we helped a better chance at adoption. A well groomed, healthy, and well trained pet has more of a chance at being adopted than a wild, dirty, stray pet.
