Can Pit Bulls become service dogs? No they can not . Some believe that the breed pit bulls are naturally vicious and can hurt people in the public surrounds. They believe if the Pit Bulls goes in public it will attack the people surrounding them but that is not true pit bulls for hundreds of years has been bred to have a human friendly disposition and a sense of owner loyalty. Unfortunately because of the way society ignorance toward pit bulls they have went from being highly respected to now a vicious breed. Some people still use Pit Bulls for many service things as in drug detection, emergency rescue, service and therapy work, military work and more.I feel as though Pit Bulls should be allowed to become service dogs because they are not born vicious the owners make them that way. With the right training any dog can do anything just like humans. I understand fearing for people's lives but what if the dog was certified to become a service dog would you let the dog into public places? All dogs aren't mean joust like people aren't mean but just like people they get hurt and become that way. If a woman/man walked into a place with an attitude yelling at people would you to give them service as well. Why is it that they can't help others either ? Police men train their dogs to become vicious to others isn't that bad as well shouldn't that breed be banded too? Why can't they just let Pit Bulls be used for certain service needs. All people who get bit by a Pit Bill is not always the victim. This would be good in my documentary to talk about what restrictions are on dogs becoming service dogs and why are their restrictions on the breed of the dog. I found this article athttp://pitbullregistry.com/unwaranted%20negative%20stigma.htm this website had no publisher or date published

Reflection Blog
Wow as I write my last blog of the semester I realize that I have improved on my research skills and my writing skills. I feel like since I have been writing blogs it makes me express the way I feel by writing/typing it down in a better way. I have noticed that when you are analyzing articles you need to provide where the article can be found so other can read it and analyze it themselves. What worked really well for me throughout the process was the fact that i had a topic to write about and I had to focus on certain blogs to write about. Sometimes it did have its down falls because trying to find different articles about one topic sometimes can be hard but it also helped me to learn how to search everywhere not just one place. You have to go out and find difference thinks to acknowledge yourself and that I did I learned more about my topic just from looking in other places for my research. I ran into writer's block because I didn't want to keep repeating myself in each blog I wanted to keep it different and interesting but I caught myself repeating some of the same things in my old blogs to my new blogs. I can honestly say that making blogs every week has helped me a lot it expanded my knowledge on researching and on different strategies on how to write. I think i will create my own blog for personal things just to have somewhere to let all my emotions out.

Survey Blog
Survey Blog
My documentary is on 4 Paws for Ability and as a group many of us are doing different things. Two of the members of the group decided to do interviews while the rest of us three decided to do surveys. I decided to do a survey which includes a minimum of fifty people. My survey questions consist of three questions. Question number one is are you female or male? Question number two is do you think college student are capable of training a dog to become a service dog? Question number three was do you think Pit bulls are able to be service dogs? Well so far I have gotten thirty four people to complete my survey. I asked them also if they could tell why or why not. I picked these questions because I wanted to get a view from the people if they think college kids can handle training a dog on their own. I also chose to ask what the people think about pitbulls becoming service dogs because they are restricted on becoming one. The result of my survey so far is that I have received twenty seven females and seven males so far to complete the survey. My next question I received sixteen yes that college student can train dogs to become service dogs, six answered no and eleven said maybe. Those who said yes believe that people can do anything if they put their mine to it and if they really want to do it they can with the proper training. Those who said no believe that college student have a lot on there plate already with focusing on school. Those who said maybe believe that it depends on if the person can handle the responsibilities of taking care of a dog and training the dog to become a service dog. For my last question surprisingly twenty four people said yes to letting pit bulls become service dogs and 10 said no. Those who said yes believe that you can train any dog to become a service dog with the right training but those who said no claim that the dogs are too vicious. I will continue one with my survey so I can find the people's answer because I question why pit bulls are restricted when there are a lot out there that are not vicious.

I found this article titled Access Rights and Access Wrongs: Ethical Issues and Ethical Solutions for Service Dog Use by Deni Elliott and Pamela S. Hogle. People with a variety of disabilities benefit from the ADA for easy public access with their service dogs. The problem is that people with non-disabilitiy are passing off their pets as service dog. Some people are threatened by the dogs that come in public places. When people bring in their dogs that aren't service dogs in public places they are putting the people who really can in a bad position. They put them in a bad position because if something was to happen like a dog bite a child and they thought it was a service dog that will give the service dogs a bad look on going into public places with children. Some places require for you to have a certificate ready to be shown which i think is good but a little bit to much because why should you bring out a paper to show maybe they should just look at the dogs collar and can tell by that .This will be good to go in the documentary because it shows what are some of the bad things that are stoping service dogs. I don't understand why people would think it is okay to put others in danger? I think others believe that they know that he managers won ask if t is a service dog because they think it might be rude but with problems like this they all should be checked.

I found a book called Nuzzle:Love Between a Boy and His Service Dog by James Rebecca. This book is showing how the service dog can really make a change on a child's life and because the child's best friend. This boo is based on a true story about a Golden Retriever named Chancer who was the first certified service dog to be used with a boy diagnosed with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder and is a brain injury behaviors . this book was mostly narrated by Donnie Kanter Winokur his son had the disorder. Chancer always knew he was suppose to be a boys best friend but he had to go through some rough times before he can meet his best friend. Chancer was a dog who was isolated by a couple who chained him outside. after his first birthday he was rescued by 4 Paws for Ability. They gave him special training and made him into service dog which then he became Iyal Winokur's companion. This will be good for our documentary because we are working on the organization 4 Paws for Ability and this is a true story how the rescued a dog and gave him a safe home to stay. This story is heart warming because the dog really connected with the boy and the boy really connected with the dog. They help each other out in many ways for one example companionship. Their family also was happy to see their son happy and has someone else to help them out.
I found an article called Service Dogs and the Rights of the Disabled by William D. Goren
This article is discusses the use of service dogs by people with disabilities. Their are certain breeds of dogs protected while the use of other breeds are not. Service dogs by law are allowed to go with you into public places. their definition of service dogs are any dog individually trained to do work or preform tasks for the benefit of an individual with a disability, including a physical, sensory psychiatric intellectual or other mental disability. If a service dog enter a public place the personnel at the public place can make the decision on whether to call or not and see if the dogs is accepted because even though the dog is there for service it is also their for emotional support. if the person with disability misrepresents the dog as a service animal when it is not that federal crime. Some issue related to service dogs is the legality of breed restrictions. some ordinances restrict which breeds of dog can reside in a town and which can not. The breed restriction is often pit bulls. This would be great in our documentary because it gives us more federal information and what is allowed world wide not just in our organizations. If you train your dog to become a service dog because you can't afford a service dog why can't it be a service dog also?Service dogs are expensive and some people with a lot of medical problems bills can't afford it so they have to what they have to do...http://eds.a.ebscohost.com/ehost/detail/detail?vid=4&sid=d615dd00-bea1-451e-a8fb-6e8e66bba306%40sessionmgr4004&hid=4208&bdata=JnNpdGU9ZWhvc3QtbGl2ZSZzY29wZT1zaXRl#db=a9h&AN=95611342

4 paws for ability gives service dog to many different types of disability people in need. Depending on your disability is how you receive the dog. Some dogs are train to specialize in one thing to help others but other dogs can do more like for example if you have seizures and you are hard at hearing they can give you a dog that alerts you in both ways. 4 Paws for Ability have hearing ear dogs, autism assistance dogs, mobility assistance dogs, seizure assistance dogs, diabetic alert dogs, fetal alcohol spectrum/ drug exposure assistance dogs, guide dogs, food allergen detection and alert dogs, multipurpose assistance dogs, and dogs for veterans. They are the only ones who don’t have a minimum age requirement. They never turn down a child who doesn't fit into one of the traditional service dog categories. They place almost every type of service dog with a person in need. a little bit about the dog are hearing ear dogs are to become your ears or you and her things you can't. Autism dogs help the children connect with their environment. 4 Paws for ability was the first agency in the United Staes to begin placing skilled autism assistance dogs and the first known to lace these assistance dogs with tracking skills.
This article found at 4pawsforability.org under service will be a good use in the documentary because it gives you information on what all the service dogs do for each group of service dogs. They also provide feed back on how it helped a child in need in each group so you get a good idea on how it helps children in need. Even though it started in 1998 which is not that far back I question why the traditional organizations didn't think about these different groups ? did they not want to help others like that ? did they not care about others to help them in many ways?

4 Paws for Ability started at University of Kentucky in 2009 by Logan Bright. She transferred to University of Kentucky and started a chapter here because she was so surprised we didn't have one started at University of Kentucky already. She wanted to show college students how community service can be fun but also help you have something on your record that you have done to help out others. 4 Paws for Ability shows you how you can benefit other people in the community so much. the goal for having this organization at University of Kentucky is to socialize and reinforce training with service puppies. Because of Logan and her bright idea it has became common to see a lot of students with a dog walking around campus. Students are suppose to train the dogs to become socialized and adapt to their surroundings . They can take the dogs everywhere they go like for example to class, mall, restaurant and more. Logan fell in love with 4 Paws for Ability because she has a passion in helping children through community service.She wants to become a teacher so she tries to involve herself with helping children. In 2012 University of Kentucky gave 4 paws for Ability 60,000 dollars
This will be good to go in the documentary because it shows how much University of Kentucky supports 4 Paws for Ability. 4 Paws for Ability has also helped University of Kentucky because it became the biggest hit on the campus which draws more students to get involved. I question why we haven't been started a service dog organization? I found this article at http://uknow.uky.edu/content/uk-students-train-service-dogs-through-4-paws-ability. The publisher was Jenny Wells on May 1, 2012

4 paws for ability is an organization that students get to train dogs and the dogs become service dogs for the special need. This organization was based off a little girl named Karen Shirk. she tried for several of years to get a service dog but was denied by traditional service dogs agencies. She was using a ventilator to breathe and they said she was too disabled to receive a service dog. After being denied she dreamed of a organization where all children can get a service dog and not have limits on who receives one and who doesn't. No child should be denied because they are too disabled and she wanted to help the children who was getting denied because they didn't meet the standard acquirements. Karen as came long way but her dream is now completed. After she felt her calling and she went on the internet helping others and telling them she will help the get a service dog with no restrictions, 4 paws began to grow as much as 300% in a years time. Many years after starting 4 Paws for Ability the first facility was purchased in Xenia, Ohio. As of today they have 90% success rate in the placement of service dogs to alert seizures when they happen minutes or hours beforehand. This can really save someones life which it has even though some organization think you can't train a dog to be alert for seizures but you can.
This information will be a good use in a documentary because it is giving facts about how it started and over the years how they proceed to grow every years and they also talk about how it was a struggle but each year they would find something to help them get out of that struggle. Every time i ear this i question why they turned her down because she was too disable??? that isn't right since she is so disabled she should receive one not denied one

Topic: University of Kentucky Dining Services I found this article at http://uky.campusdish.com.this article didn't have a publisher and gets update on a regular bases to inform you what is new to the dining services.
Summary: University of Kentucky Dining Services is for students to experience apart of the college life. Student would receive a meal plan that will get them a meal at anywhere on campus they would like. You get to meet new people at different places that you may have in commons and you might also run into a friend so you won't eat alone. University of Kentucky has a lot of places on campus that you might really enjoy. The thing about it is that you have to pick between several meal plans that might fit you the best. The dining Service tries to make the students eat green. They support farmers because they feel that is important. They also change the menu according to the season so the students can eat the best local and fresh foods
Questions/Reflections:University of Kentucky Dining Services. Why do some places have a time when you can use your meal plan?? I feel like we pay a lot of money already to eat so we should be able to use our meal swipes when ever and save the flex for the pantry.Why isn't food included in our tuition? University of Kentucky tuition is a lot for us the students to also have to pay for food sometimes i think they just get us for anything like laundry we have to also pay for that and we can't use our flex dollars or plus .... don't you think that is a little crazy i mean we are still college students trying to stay in college. I feel like because of these cost is one reason why people don't go to college because it cost a lot.

Topics: University of Kentucky Wildcat Service Dogs. I found this article at http://www.kentucky.com/2012/12/31/2460542/students-make-university-of-kentucky.html. The publisher is Linda B. Blackford on December 31, 2012. I decided to blog about thous article and find more information after hearing a classmate talk about it.
Summary-Topic:University of Kentucky Wildcat Service Dogs. I found this article to be very interesting because they decided to do their own dog care organization. Students are to train the dog to become a service dog. The students must take the dog everywhere they go. The dogs have to learn how to be serious that it isn't really time to play and they learn this as a puppy. The trainers don't cuddle or get the dogs excited for things because they have to learn to adapt to their surrounding and not get overly excited to new things. Katie Sharvan was a sophomore at University of Kentucky and decided how she wanted to be more involved with training them. University of Kentucky approved here organization and they now have 6 trainers and 20 students to help. The Wildcat dogs usually stay with their student trainers for 12-18 months. The train dogs are really valuable. Katie once sold a dog for 20,000 dollars.Service dogs are not guide dog. Service dogs help the sick or disabled with a multitude of problems for example physical disabilities, illnesses or disorders such as autism.
Questions/Reflection:University of Kentucky Wildcat Service Dogs. After really reading this article this has made me really wish people would show equal attention to both organizations. 4 Paws for Ability mostly focuses on children while Wildcat Service Dogs focuses on all ages. Why don't they just come together as one? I feel as if they come together as one it would be a more profit organization because even though they both are similar they still have different focuses on things. Is it harder keeping up with organization because of 4 Paws for Ability? I feel like this organization would be harder to keep up with because they most people really don't know about them as well as 4 Paws for Ability so they would get less help and less funding. I feel as if they should come together so they can get the same help and they can also split the funding .

My reflection on my documentary. When I begin to right I find myself really getting involved in my writing and really expressing how I feel. My writing process for the formal proposal was to really hit the key point so that the readers would be informed but also interested. I use the strategy for mostly all my papers but now that I am in college it is time to switch things up. Writing this paper has made me learned more things from my teacher and peers that would really help me in the future with more papers. I feel like that way I adapted to turning it into the Shark Tank presentation was just okay it wasn't what I would have liked it to be so I give myself and okay job. It was a little awkward because two people has done the same organization so I really didn't want to bore them. I feel like my strengths in the writing proposal is that I had a good introduction and I gave good information to the readers about that organization and the history of the organization. The strength in my presentation was my visual I believe that I had good pictures. I also believe I was really good on eye contact I wasn't always looking down and very good on speaking I wasn't quite I was just right. My weakness in my paper I'm really not that sure because I haven't heard back from my teacher but I hope it isn't a lot. I recognized my weakness in my presentation which was that I went to fast and I didn't give a lot of information like I should have but that is because for the first time I got nervous which really isn't like me because I love presentation but then again I also had a rough morning but I was disappointed at myself because I was really nervous for no reason but since I know what I messed up at now so for my next presentation I WILL ACE ITTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!

Topic:Campus Kitchen at University of Kentucky I found this article at www2.ca.uky.edu. it doesn't have a true publisher but it is created by the college of agriculture. This website is updated regularly. I found this website my looking into what Kentucky had to offer for students to give back.
Summary-Topic:Campus Kitchen at University of Kentucky
After researching mrs about Campus Kitchen at University of Kentucky I found that this organization is a great way to give back to the homeless. Their main purpose is to recover food and donate it back to those in need. They deliver meals through the community and across the globe. Donating food to all the local food charities in lexington is a big thing. Since the recession peoples income has went down and some became homeless so for them to tie food back helps a lot because food cost a lot to a big family. This organization started in 2003 but didn't start until April,2014 at University of Kentucky. The Department of Dietetics and Human Nutrition helped start this organization with faculty support. They are partners with on- campus hunger organizations and also with the Big Blue Pantry which is a food pantry for students.
Question/Reflection-Topic:Campus Kitchen at University of Kentucky
I feel like their is a lot of children and adults out her starving because they don't have money to eat for them to give food back is a big way to help. Homeless people always ask for money to eat and this is way to know that they are really eating and not wasting the money on something else. The food pantry helps a lot of people in my eyes because I have seen people beg for food and now they can just go to the pantry. Why did this organization just start this year?? Did hunger not matter as much?

I feel like their is a lot of children and adults out her starving because they don't have money to eat for them to give food back is a big way to help. Homeless people always ask for money to eat and this is way to know that they are really eating and not wasting the money on something else. The food pantry helps a lot of people in my eyes because I have seen people beg for food and now they can just go to the pantry. Why did this organization just start this year?? Did hunger not matter as much?

Topic: 4 Paws for ability at University of Kentucky. I found this article at uk4paws.wix.com. It didn't have a publisher and gets updated regularly. I found this program by talking to a young lady on how she got the dog and why and wanted to look more into the organization.
Summary-Topic:4 Paws for ability at University of Kentucky
After researching more about this program I found it to be very interesting and heart warming. 4 Paws for ability is a program that teaches students how to get involved in community service and also have fun while doing it. Students at University of Kentucky are allowed to take the puppies everywhere they go classes, out to eat, shopping and more. The dog already comes knowing the basic commands. Their job is to help the dogs adapt to their surroundings. I feel that letting students socialize a service dog for someone in need is a great way to give back that is why this program is so heart warming. Some people don't have the time to train a dog to become social but for this program to let students help is a great thing and helps a lot of people not just the ones in need. This program was founded in 1998 by Karen Shirk after she tried unsuccessfully for years to obtain a service dog. Karen dreamed of a place where applicants for service dogs were not judged based on severity of disability and set out to start her own organization. Her dream became the large, thriving, respected nonprofit program. They place the dogs with children and they never turn them down like traditional service dog programs.
Questions/ Reflections-Topic:4 Paws for ability
This organization really meant something to me because they don't deny any children they make sure all get what they need. I question why these traditional organizations have so many rules and where do they cut off at? How can you tell which child needs it more and which ones don't if they are all in need? It makes you think more about our world and do they really care about those in need. In my eyes Karen is a hero because she took a risk to help others in need like herself

Topic:Center for Academic Resources and Enrichment Services(CARES) at University of Kentucky, As I was going through their information page I spotted a picture that amused me. This picture can be found at http://www.uky.edu/Diversity/contacts.html. It doesn't give a photograph name or date because the site is updated daily.
Summary-Topic:Center for Academic Resources and Enrichment Services(CARES)The Center for Academic Resources and Enrichment Services is based on diversity. Diversity plays a big part in University of Kentucky it is Goal IV of University Strategic Plan: Promote Diversity and Inclusion. This picture shows what all come together to make diversity as one whole. The University of Kentucky wants all their student from all over to feel like family. Center for Academic Resources and Enrichment Services has some responsibility of making this university divers. They target people from all over the world who comes to University of Kentucky to join. They provide them with support systems to help them achieve their goals and to show others they help all. Gender, variety, religion, income, race, status,education,sexuality,unity is what diversity is about what the CARES program teaches and more. But as you can see their are a lot of things that make up diversity and people are the ones who make up diversity.
Question/Reflection-Topics:Center for Academic Resources and Enrichment Services(CARES)
Diversity means to me the world coming together as one because we are all so different but we still are one as a whole. I feel strongly on diversity because I feel as though it plays a big role in our world if you don't know how to adjust to different surrounding you will be stuck. Diversity comes into play with that because it shows you all what is out here in the world the people, places, things, and personalities. I do have a few questions about this picture. Why is Income on there? I feel like Income is separating you from others. Why should people need to know your income? Why should yo come together on your income? I would feel like a outcast because it is offensive to me because I shouldnt have to come together with others because of income that I feel is private. I feel it is private because a lot of people judge you on what kind of money you have.
Well that is all for tonight/today I hope you enjoyed but it will also be great if I you can inform me on how I did thanks......

This site gets updated daily. I am a member of this group so I thought it would be a good idea to write about it and find out more information.
Summary-Topic:Center for Academic Resources and Enrichment Services(CARES)
After Researching more about Center for Academic Resources and Enrichment Services I found it to be very interesting because this program is very focused on helping students finish college and understand their classes. They provide study groups for your classes so you can get hands on learning. I like the fact they help freshmen through seniors because most programs stop after freshmen year. they thing that students will be able to understand what is going on after the first year which isn't true because classes can get harder as you go forward in college and guidance is always helpful. History about them is that they start in 1978. They were established to address the serious concern regarding student retention. They make sure diversity is one of their priorities because hey want everyone to feel like they can get help. Over the years they strive to get diversity up and increase the graduation rates. They love to get students involved in enrichment activities to make them a better leader.
Question/Reflection-Topics:Center for Academic Resources and Enrichment Services(CARES)
This program has really helped a lot of students get better grades and become a better person. I, myself am happy that I'm in this program because I feel as though this program will open so many doors for me and other who attend. I feel as though University of Kentucky should really give more thanks to the Center for Academic Resources and Enrichment Services because they are giving the school a better look when graduations rates are going up. I do however have a few unanswered questions. Why don't they travel to other colleges in Kentucky to better help everyone? I feel like this would be a better look on the whole world and they can really make a name for themselves for helping all college student. How many members did they start off with and how much do they increase each month?
Well that is it for today I hope you enjoyed and let me know if you liked it......
