Just for fun

I just wanted to share this with all you guys. It is a paper that i wrote today. EnJoY!!

It is true when people say that a dog is man’s best friend. They have protected us, helped us, and watched over and kept in line our farm animals. Dogs are a big part of a human’s life.

The first category that I’m going to talk about is the hunting dogs.
There are many different kinds of hunting dogs each for different purposes in the world. But I only have two dogs that I am going to talk about.
Labrador retriever is one of the world’s top 5 best dogs you could ever own. Along with their amazing temperament they are great hunting dogs. Usually they only go and retrieve (hence the name) the animal that their owner has already killed, but they do fish. It is actually quite funny to watch. The dog just stares into the water and suddenly dives his head into the water and when you least expect it he pops his head back out with a fish in his mouth. If you ever have a chance to see a dog go fishing I suggest you go and enjoy it.
A Scottish deer hound, I think you can guess what they hunt. If you can’t then I will tell you now, they hunt deer. My mom owns a dog boarding business and has actually taken care of two Scottish deer hounds. They are so tall! Picture this, my mom is five foot eight inches and the Scottish deer hound goes to her waist. These dogs are amazing dogs.

Herding dogs is the next category.
A Collie is better known as Lassie. That is the kind of dog Lassie was. They are amazing herders. You almost don’t have to teach them how to herd because they seem to already know what they are meant to do. That’s how it seems to be with Border collies and Australian shepherds too. It seems that God has put something in them that tells them what they are supposed to do. It is so amazing that He would do that!

The third and final category is the dogs that are here to protect us.
A Pitbull is a protective dog. But it’s not entirely true how people portray them to be. Pitbulls are very sweet dogs. Even though everyone says and thinks that they are some vicious animal, they are not. The only time that you can say that they are vicious is when the pitbull thinks that his owner is in some sort of danger and needs help.
German Shepherds, Dobermans, Bullmastiffs, Malamutes (sled dogs), and Boxers are just some of the dogs that are said to be mean and vicious but really aren’t. I’m not saying that there aren’t any vicious dogs there are always going at least one dog from a breed that will be a mean dog.
I hope that all of the things that I have stated in my paper make you think of dogs in a better way. Every person should have a dog. After all a man’s best friend is a dog.
