Since the domestication of dogs over ten thousand years ago, companion animals have held a special place in the hearts of people. For many people, owning a companion animal is a rewarding and enjoyable affair. Pets will offer unconditional love and support that may otherwise be unobtainable to people in today's cold-hearted, "dog-eat-dog" society. This paper shows, however, that owning a pet of any species, much like having a human child, is an endeavor that calls for a great deal of commitment and responsibility on the part of the human companion.
From the Paper:
"Companion animals have shown humans unmeasurable amounts of loyalty and dedication over the centuries, and in turn it has become common practice among most people in our society to have a pet. However, as rewarding as pet ownership can be, people must be willing and able to dedicate themselves to properly providing for their pet's every physical and emotional need. There are people who are not able to make the often selfless decisions necessary when caring for an animal due to circumstances beyond their control, as well as people who will consistently make the most selfish decision possible due to their personal disrespectful view of animals. Those individuals who would not provide a safe, secure, and healthy home for an animal should not become pet owners."
