I love my dog and it likes to sit on the couch while I work. I will name my first child Joffrey or Elena, depending on the gender of the child. Smoking harms your lungs and slowly kills you. Walking to school makes me exercise more than I do when I do not have any school lectures and/or tutorials. When I go to the gym, I increase my exercises every time and thus my endurance rises as well. I enjoy having a great weather outside, especially the period when flowers and trees bloom and reveal the beauty of spring. My ...

I have witnessed many things in my life. Some of these instances have been happy and some of them have been sad. Unfortunately, one that has stuck with me concerned a dog I knew that lived across the way from me in Southern California. His name was Raphael and he looked well taken care of: his coat was shiny and he never looked like he was being starved. However, the look of abandonment and loss of love in his eyes is something that will stay with me forever. It showed me that animals need more from their owners than money; ...

True happiness can come from the most unexpected directions and not always arise from situations or events that you might expect, (such as having a lovely time on vacation or getting promoted in your job). Mine came out of what I thought was simply an act of charity on my part. I was surfing the internet and came across one of those animal rescue websites.
Then I saw Kali! She’s a long-haired German Shepherd dog, about a year old then, and had been found wandering the city streets with a chain around her neck that had worn away her fur leaving a ...

Single-subject designs are a research method that test for an independent variable in a small number of subjects, typically one. The method is thought to have originated from behavioral psychology and is preferred for experiments involving behavioral change or modification because the outcomes are tested periodically from the beginning of the experiment to the end. Single-subject designs include at least one phase where there is no treatment and one phase where there is treatment. The test subjects, therefore, act as their own control. Single-subject designs are relevant where behavioral change needs to be observed, as one can not only measure the ...

Introduction

What generally defines poetry connects a number of poems in terms of thematic concerns, stylistic devices employed, mood and the language. According to one of the earliest definition of poetry, William Wordsworth says that poetry is an unprompted flow of feeling recollected in stillness. Themes are connected to the mood of the poem and different authors may fall victims of such impulsive composition environment and themes speak louder that decorative styles like alliterations, assonance, rhymes. In this paper I will discuss the connection between three poems; Noh’s Raven, dog dreaming and the drunken in the furnace by W.S. Merwin.

If you would be a rabbit, or a dog, or a caw how would communicate your sorrow? How would you persuade the others to treat you well? They have no voice of their own; they are able of no formal communication, other than their gestures and their onomatopoeic sounds. But that does not mean that they feel nothing. PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of the Animals) knows the hardships the animals go through and it develops consistent programs for assuring the animals’ wellbeing. Although its efforts are massive, it cannot do it on its own. Human involvement is needed for further ...

It is important that a dog kept as a domestic pet is properly trained, for a number of reasons. The first and important one is to get a puppy “house-trained.” Because puppies need to urinate frequently, beginning when they wake up in the morning, the owner will need to be up early each day to take the dog outside, and then take it out frequently during the day. The puppy will soon learn the routine, so that it does not use the house as its toilet.
A dog must also be taught to recognize its owner as its master or pack leader ...

For ages, humans have used shaping procedures for training their young ones, people around them, as well as their pet animals. Shaping procedure (operant conditioning) in animals and humans uses rewards as stimulants to induce the idea and behavior while targeting the result, which is behavior change. Shaping procedure is the idea of emphasizing on the successive guesses to the final response. The procedure allows a trainer to move from an ‘it cannot be done’ situation to a ‘done’ position. In Most cases, the trainer is forced to shape a behavior pattern in an animal where it does not frequently occur or ...

Keeping and raising a pet is a full time commitment. It needs your attention, care and responsibility towards the pet. Dog keeping is also a big responsibility. You train it fully so that it adapts to your lifestyle and enjoy your company. It is only possible when you train it appropriately. Dog training is always done in several steps. It is because you cannot train it at once to become a fully capable household pet. Several stages of training a dog are as follows: -
Step Two: Name you dog, it is crucial. It will enhance the training process. Use that name frequently ...

I am writing this personal experience that reinforced my belief in God and also shook me from within and even made me laugh! We all fear accidents as they involve serious injuries and may cause a threat to life. I am no different. Thoughts about a severe accident send shivers up my spine.

This experience made me ponder about the importance of human life and also about its uncertainty. The incident became even more complicated with the addition of a dog ...

When deciding to adopt a pet, a person usually needs to consider his or her preferences, as well as the possible changes in the lifestyle. While many people know whether they like cats or dogs more and are, thus, guided by this factor in their decision, there are also those, who do not have a preference, and this is the time when such people need to consider cons and pros of owning one or another. Although both cats and dogs are both the most popular choices among other pets, they differ greatly in their attitude toward the owners, their habits, as well ...

I cannot say that I am a careless or egoistic person. I am always ready to give a piece of advice, to share things, to come to the rescue or just to support a person.

Some activists against infringement of animal rights have castigated the issue terming it cruelty to animals. However, there are those people who love eating dog’s meat and have their own justifications as to why ...

A phobia is an irrational fear to natural phenomenon such that it is abnormal as compared to the behavior of normal people. It is normally triggered by a specific stimulus and hence is a consequence of conditioning. An addiction is a dependence on a substance or action for acquisition of pleasure with little regard for the possible negative effects. Conditioning is the training of the human, or any animal’s, system to respond in a specific manner when exposed to a specific stimulus. It can be voluntary or involuntary on the part of the subject hence the two types of conditioning: operant and classical.

This is an ethical dilemma that I have faced recently. I had a friend whose pet dog was very sick. If the vet were able to perform an operation, but there was only a small chance that the dog would recover. This surgery was very expensive, though. They didn't have the money, but they could take out a personal loan in order to save their dog. Money was already tight, and my friend was having trouble paying their bills as it was.

Culinary Flap Dogs S. Korea by Barbara Demick

The traditional practice of eating dogs has become such a controversial issue. This is because of the animal rights activism and the increasing culture and the appeal of having these animals as pets instead. In some of the restaurants at Seoul dogs have been completely accommodated such that besides offering food for the customers, it also offers dog food. On the other hand, other restaurants offer dog meat as a specialty. The customers of these restaurants believe that dog meat gives a person strength and vigor.

In the modern time where domestication of animals has been greatly appreciated, human beings have gone a step higher to treat the animals in a closer manner. It is not uncommon to spot people with either a dog or cat that they closely associate and identify themselves with; creating a closer relationship than the one they would have with ordinary dogs or cats. Despite the facts that these animals do not perform their ideal purpose, such as providing security in case of dogs, people have kept them for company. As such, the animals are kept for a completely different purpose. Pets have ...

A narrative poem “Dog’s Death” by John Updike tells us a story about the loss of a loved one, about the feelings that people experience while going through such a process. In this case the author writes about losing a dog, for the depiction of which he chooses to use the narrative form that is appropriate on such occasions.
John Updike in his poem treats the dog as a human being, part of his family, therefore, personifies an animal, maybe to stress the impact of the loss. The attitude towards the member of the family can be followed in the third line ...

Since the advent of horror literature, horror novels were not taken seriously by critics and scholarly reviews were usually not associated with horror literature. Nevertheless avid readers always were drawn like magnets to books categorized under the ‘thriller’ or ‘horror’ sections in bookstores. But the history of literature has time and again reiterated the fact that, there are novels in every genre, that deserves a high place in terms of literary merit and Richard Matheson’s “I Am legend”, is an example to this fact.

Ivan Pavlov, a Russian Psychologist, is credited with the introduction of classical conditioning after he decided to shift his attention from digestion to learning. He had observed an interesting phenomenon during his study of the digestive system. That is, a dog starts salivating at the sight of the food. This means that the dog had learnt to associate the sight of food as the same thing as having it in its mouth; because when food was placed in its mouth the same thing happened. Indeed, this phenomenon is not unique to dogs. If one has been used to taking lunch ...

The bond between man and dog is unconditional that explains why the love between them is deep. The relationship of humans and dogs is based on trust and purest form of love. The loyalty of the dog to his or her master is incorrigible. A dog will not think twice in saving the life of his or her master and will not hesitate to do it over again. The more time spent together by the dog and the master will build a stronger bond. A bonded dog is one which listens to the basic obedience cues without having ...

The rat was taken suddenly from a basket and presented to Albert. Two months after pretesting had been done, Albert was shown a white rat and any time when he touched the rat steel bar was banged behind his head (Watson & Rayner.1920. para 9). When seven trials were over, Albert cried and avoided the rat- this was a situation of conditioned stimulus. Albert had associated the white rat with the disturbing banging sound which changed neutral stimulus to conditioned stimulus. The loud noise was the unconditioned stimulus which caused the child to cry any time he saw the rat. The emotional response ...

Behavior enables one to act in their own best interests without infringing or denying the rights, thoughts, beliefs and feelings of other people. “It is the expression of one’s thoughts, beliefs and feelings in an honest, appropriate and direct way” (Wilks, 2012, p. 138). Assertiveness enables an individual to critically stand up for themselves and act in their own best interests without undue anxiety. There are instances when you really have to act in your best interests in order to make life decisions for instance in your career, lifestyle, relationships and daily activities. The first step is setting ...

Jack London's short story "To Build a Fire" tells the tale of a man and his dog, who attempt to survive in the Yukon. The harsh weather soon leaves them stranded, leaving them to take different methods to keep themselves alive. The attempt to build a fire takes up the majority of the story, as the man attempts to keep himself warm. The conflict between instinct and logic is told through symbolism and metaphor; the protagonist learns all too well that relying on logic is foolhardy, and that instinct must also be a component to his survival. Nature is shown to be an ...

The subject of eating dog meat has been controversial for many years and debate is still ongoing in contemporary societies. The two opposing sides argue based the traditions and culture of our ancestors that view dog eating as a source of nutrients and other theoretical benefits and the contemporary society argument considers the dog as man’s loyal companion. The arguments could however not be generalized because of people’s different point of view; some may agree, some may differ while others may stand a neutral ground. China and Korea are well known for their consideration of dog meat as a delicacy a ...

Both Jack London and John Muir were lovers of the outdoors, and this love is reflected in their writing. Both writers also utilized canines in their stories, although they addressed the relationship between dog and man in vastly different ways. Jack London's canine-human relationship recognized and even glorified the ancient wolf-like tendencies of the dog, while John Muir's dog exemplified the common classification of dog as “man's best friend.”
Both Muir and London were fascinated by the wild in the dog, and the fearless manner in which canines face their fates. London and Muir knew the wilds well: ...

Unleashed Dogs on Public Streets
I have to state right at the outset that I am totally against dogs being on public streets (or in most other public places come to that) if they are not on a leash. The first reason for my adopting that position is that it’s the law in most towns and cities in the U.S. and in many other countries in the world, too. Secondly, if a dog is on a leash, then it’s under control. Thirdly, whilst my dog or yours might be friendly, does everyone else know that? Also, I don’t ...

Introduction

The comparison between humans and animals can be done from various perspectives: biological, locomotion, consciousness, instincts or moral senses to name a few. Such a discussion would be very wide; therefore, this essay proposes to narrow the comparison between human and animal, by referring to a specific animal. Dogs are considered human’s best friends and from my experience with these animals I can state that they have developed mechanisms for adjusting their living near humans, by copying their attitudes and behaviors or by trying to communicate with them. Therefore, based on personal observation and scientific data, this essay develops a comparison between ...

Classical conditioning and operant conditioning are two concepts of learning that are integral to behavioral psychology. Although the processes differ to quite an extent, they tend to complement one another, and the ultimate result of both concepts is learning. Although both conditioning practices were pioneered by different individuals, both believed in the general principle that investigating behaviors through experiments should be the basis of psychology.
Ivan Pavlov, a Russian psychologist, was the one who unintentionally discovered the concept of classical conditioning while carrying out research on canine digestive patterns. According to his findings, His findings supported the idea that ...

Stephen Crane, the author of A Dark Brown Dog, weaves a short story filled with vast amounts of imagery and symbolism. He creates an in-depth comprehensive description of an adopted dog, a young boy, and the growth of their relationship. Although the title suggests that the story will be about a dog, it does not reveal the cycle of abuse that plays out with the characters. Therefore, the seemingly innocent title of the story does not lets the audience know that there is an underlying theme within the story. This essay will examine the various literary devices that Crane ...

The examined artwork, with the dog trapped between two surfaces and a blurry shade, produced various interpretations regarding the symbolism ...

Learned helplessness is one of the phenomena thought to be relevant in understanding depression in humans. Depression is believed to be a reaction learned by a person from events known to be stressful, but inescapable at the same time. Although the “learned helplessness” theory does not completely explain human depression, it is essential for understanding the reasons behind the feelings of depressed individuals such as being helpless and hopeless. Also, the theory explains the loss of sense of personal control over life events of many individuals. Thus, enhancing the sense of personal control may improve the situation of individuals that had ...

In psychology, there is a learning theory that states that as we learn, we adjust the manner in which we perceive our environment and the manner in which we interpret the incoming stimuli. Consequently, all this alters the way we interact, or behave. It is from this theory that one learns about behaviorism. The latter is the study or our behaviors after exposure to given stimuli within the environment. This helps us in understanding the effects given stimuli have on us.
In the learning theory, we have classical and operant conditioning. In classical conditioning, one learns to associate one ...
