Uhh! Please help me choose a topic!

Ok... I have to do a paper on a thesis statement... and a thesis is a statement that you have to prove. Example: People who walk their dogs, are more physically fit than people who dont.

But that is not what Im going to do... and I dont know exactly what I want to do! Which is why I need you guy's hhelp! :D

Ok... my two choices are:

1. Husky/(certain breed of dog)'s are the easiest and smartest dogs to train.

Or:

2. Pitbulls are not bad dogs, it just depends on their training.(I wouldnt word it like that... just to give you a general idea tho.)

Ok...thats All I can think of! :confused: Can anyone think of anything else I could do? If not please vote number 1 or two, or other... and please tell me what you chose! Thank you so much!

I would do #2 I think, I did a project thing like that last year about Rottweilers and it went over very well.

ok thank you... but do you think there will be enough research to fill up 3 pages? That is the requirement by my teacher...

I was thiinking if I did that... that maybe I could study training methods(obviously) brain setup (dont know where Id find any info on that tho) and.. dog breeds.

What about the pure bred vs shelter dog debate? Health of shelter/mixed dogs is sometimes a lot better because of no inbreeding. Look at all the lives saved for taking a shelter dog.

I would go with #2.

From people I know whom have Huskies, i've heard many times that they certainly aren't the EASIEST dog to train.

Val's idea is very good as well -- You could go over the many dogs whom die a day in shelters because there isn't room for them and all of the irresponsible breeders there are who create this problem. Then possibly go over what a responsible breeder is.

Those are good ideas. I did a report on Puppy Mills, I got a really good grade on it too.

I chose # 2 for you

Because I own a Husky and they are no where near easy to train

:D

I think a paper on how inportant a good dog neighbor is. You could explain how plesant having a obediand dog can be for you (the owner) ,and neighbors. Stress the importance of care of the dog spaying and nutering.
