Dog is a domestical form of the gray wolf, a member of the Canidae family of the order Carnivora. The term is used for both feral and pet varieties. Dogs also have been the most widely kept working, hunting and companion animal in human history. The word “dog” may also mean the male of canine species, as opposed to the word “bitch” for the female of the species. For me, to have a dog is to have a friend. Like what they say, dogs are truly “man’s best friend”. I agree because some of the people say we have some characteristics that are the same with dogs. But, dogs can also be a disadvantage for us. First, dogs have a disease called “rabies”. This rabies from dogs can be transferred to the people by a bite of a dog; this disease can lead you to death. I also experienced to be bitten when I was young, and this dog is unfortunately has a rabies. So, I experienced to be injected for so many days because of this. Then, the last one is it can harm. What I mean is that even though they are called “man’s best friend”, they can also harm us in ways like they can chase us when they are angry or hungry. I can say that dogs are truly an animal that can be take care of and can be treated as a family and also a friend. What is important is you have to spend time with your pet together so; you and your pet can be together forever.
