fact or fiction
Is it fact or merely fiction? Fact or Fiction explores the myths and beliefs we hold about our pets, like why dogs wag their tails and cats purr.
Owls Are Sad Too pt. 2
Owen the Owl is still seeming to dismiss the matter that he’s a sad boy. That’s a feeling of defeat and loss. Now by living in a general centre the mask of knowledge with how other suffering somebody’s come to facts with being this hopeless and then on with the situational cause of affect that there is nothing being simply there that can be getting fit in well with whatever there is to be to understood on how to discover something better or even how to discover something meaningful in a world so cold that is caught in with the worst of a badgering concept of what we the owls do by hating ourselves and what get done by hating others.

I was a week shy of my 10th birthday, the day I broke into my neighbours’ property and absconded with their dog. It was one of the hottest summer days ever recorded; an absolutely scorching, searing heat. Everyone who could was sheltered indoors, huddled as close as possible to their air conditioners and fans.
The bear
It was the cusp of June. The air dry and cloggingly hot. Kiki, a short little black dog with one white toe on her front right paw and a splash of grey around her chest, darted in and out of the dusty green bushes that dotted along the old logging road. She was just a mutt that I rescued, who in favor rescued me. More than once, but I will never admit that to my family.
Jennisea RedfieldPublished 2 years ago in PetlifeDog Day Morning
It was a very cold January morning; one of those arctic daybreaks that one often encounters in wintry Montreal. Deciding to remain in bed at least until eight, I almost imperceptibly heard the sound of a scratch on the door. When I opened it, I found a cute cocker spaniel about to freeze to death. I let it in and thought that I heard it thank me. I brought it some warm milk and could have sworn that I heard it thank me again. I was getting ready to leave for work when I heard it wishing me a good day. I looked at the dog, it looked at me, opened its mouth and said: “Yes, you heard me! I spoke to you!” I was stunned. “I hope that you feel fine. You look quite pale. Although I am a dog, I do speak, English and French.” I regained my speech, and with extreme disbelief told it — there was no one else to speak to — that I knew that it was a prank. “My names are Honesty, Good Dog, Bad Dog, Sit, Roll Over, Jump, Fetch, Come Here, and Get Out,” it replied. Still doubtful, I mumbled my name. “I like your name,” uttered the dog and wiggled its tail. “Thanks!” I muttered. “What name do you prefer?” I added. “Yes,” said the dog. “Yes?” I asked. “Yes,” Yes replied. I smiled and was going to feed Yes, but she asked for a rain check. I sat beside her with a large coffee, feeling silly for a short while.
Patrick M. OhanaPublished 2 years ago in PetlifeHachiko-The Real and most faithful dog
Just outside one of the five exits of Tokyo's Shibuya Station is a bronze statue of a dog named Hachiko. A similar statue, erected in 2004, is in Odette, Hachiko's original hometown, where it is in front of the Akita Dog Museum. In addition to the Hachiko statue at Shibuya Station, there are statues in Hachiko's hometown outside Odate Station, and another statue is in front of the Akita Dog Museum. Not only is there a statue of Hachiko in front of Odate Station (above), you can find Hachiko Shrine on the platform and many other Akita Inu statues in the area, such as on top of the mailbox at the Town Hall (see below).
Rocky The Standard Poodle
When we were brand new at this game and had just started breeding our dogs, I was always surprised by the strange questions and strong beliefs of people who truly knew nothing about dog breeding whatsoever. Now, I’m not trying to sound pompous or superior in any way, but truly...this story reflects the fact that there are some people, no matter how much science, biology or plain fact obviously state otherwise, they continue to believe what they believe. “DAVE” is a perfect example in this humorous retelling of the tale.

This includes species such as emperor, Gentoo, Adelie, and chinstrap, which may have different partners from year to year. Of the 18 different penguin species, only two — Adélie and the emperor penguin — have actually made Antarctica their home. There are about 18 species of penguins on the planet (the exact number is being discussed), which live from Antarctica to the far north of the equator, but only 8 species of penguins can be found in and around the icy waters of Antarctica. Penguins can be found in colonies of the Antarctic continent and on sub-Antarctic islands.
Lucky Me
You may not believe this but I was born in Avon Park, Florida to my mother and I had 7 siblings. I don't have a clue who my father was and my mother never told me who he was. I guess some traveling stranger.

What if your cat was out to murder you, and you didn't know it? I swear that was the case with my two cats this particular day.
C. M. SearsPublished 3 years ago in PetlifeSpot and the “Ghost”
It was cool October afternoon, when Spot and I set out with my friends for a weekend at the cabin. Dave, Ricky, and I were all studying engineering together, and had just finished several gruelling weeks of exams. We decided to celebrate our hard work by a weekend away at my parent’s cabin, complete with s’mores, fishing, and hiking. Mom and Dad were onboard with the idea, as long as we made sure to tidy up the cabin before we came home. I even convinced them to let me bring Spot along. Spot is my family’s beloved golden retriever, who we rescued several years ago, and he is a huge fan of the cabin and the lake.
An Adventure With Brandy and Minnie
I consider myself extremely fortunate to have known some amazing dogs in my life. They were my companions, my friends, and my family.

I mean I have no way of challenging for cash prizes or recognition as usual, only this time I cannot meet the submitted photo qualification.
