Karl grew up in an unstable home environment with a mother struggling with alcoholism and drug abuse. He was removed from her care at age 3 and bounced between 10 different foster homes. As a result, Karl struggles with anger issues and does not trust authority figures. He recently aged out of foster care at 18 and is now homeless. Karl is interested in playing a mobile game mentioned by his social workers that could provide opportunities, but he is frustrated by the need for a code from his case worker to access it.
Igor Malenko refuses to allow unsupervised visits between Mila and her mother Lori, citing Lori's abusive behavior and false accusations against him. He accuses Lori of prioritizing destroying him over spending time with Mila. Lori maintains she misses Mila and wants to see her per the court order. Their dispute over visitation continues without resolution.
This document provides examples of behaviors in relationships and asks the reader to determine if each example constitutes domestic abuse. It then provides responses of "yes", "no", or "depends" for each example. Some key behaviors identified as domestic abuse include name calling, financial control, excessive texting or calling to monitor another's location, threats of violence, physical violence, isolation from friends, and emotional abuse through put-downs. Context is important, as some behaviors could depend on factors like frequency, impact on the other person, and respecting boundaries.

Fertility refers to the natural ability to produce offspring, while fecundity refers to the potential for reproduction. Factors like age, nutrition, hormones, and lifestyle influence human fertility. Women's fertility peaks in their early 20s and declines after 35, while men's sperm quality also declines with age starting in their 30s. Both men and women experience hormonal cycles that determine periods of higher fertility.

Photosynthesis is the process by which plants, algae, and cyanobacteria use sunlight, water and carbon dioxide to produce oxygen and energy in the form of ATP and NADPH. It occurs in two phases: the light-dependent reactions and the light-independent reactions. The light reactions capture energy from sunlight and use it to make ATP and NADPH. The Calvin cycle uses these products to incorporate carbon from carbon dioxide into organic compounds to fuel the plant. Some plants use alternative pathways like C4 or CAM photosynthesis that help reduce photorespiration and increase water use efficiency.

The document provides information from a veterinarian on selecting the right breed of dog. It discusses various breed traits like reactivity, trainability, aggression, coat type, size and more. It also includes a puppy aptitude test to evaluate temperament. The veterinarian recommends certain breeds based on experience but notes no breed is perfect and temperament depends on socialization and training. Prospective owners are advised to consider their lifestyle and what traits they want or can handle in a dog.
Athena is an 8-month old pit bull terrier mix who is energetic, friendly, and people-oriented. She pulls on the leash but is manageable. Athena is enthusiastic when greeting strangers and will jump up if not trained. She is easily distracted by other people. The assessment recommends Athena for a home with older children rather than young ones due to her tendency to jump when excited. Overall, Athena seems like a happy, well-socialized dog who loves attention and should be easy to train.

Slide for my persuasive speech and critical thinking. WARNING THIS PRESENTATION IS EXTREMELY GRAPHIC AND CAN BE DISTURBING. Having adopted rescue animals, I cringe when I see the attrocities done to animals we have a responsibility to as their stewards. They have been domesticated and are trusting, and this is how they are treated. Non of the material belongs to me, this is just a compilation from the web, imagery collected to drive the point home. I want to make EVERY person aware of what goes on. I suggest researching my claims. Google "Letter from a Shelter Manager"
The document describes various dogs available for adoption from Hopes Haven Hopefuls, including their breeds, ages, sizes, temperaments, and whether they are good with kids, other dogs, and cats. It provides information on over 30 different dogs, with descriptions ranging from 1-4 sentences each.
Australian dogs such as Labradoodles are becoming more popular due to their hypoallergenic and non-shedding coat. While puppies can be challenging to train as they chew, bark and have accidents as they learn, they are intelligent dogs that form loyal bonds with their families. Owners must socialize puppies, provide toys to encourage appropriate behavior, and curb excessive barking through positive reinforcement training. The Australian Labradoodle Association supports owners and breeders to ensure the well-being and proper breeding of these dogs.
The document discusses the author's experience taking her shy dog Katie to the dog park for the first time. Katie became agitated by other dogs sniffing her and trying to take her balls. When a larger dog approached her while she was guarding her pile of balls, Katie growled and showed her teeth in a threatening manner. The author realized she had misread Katie's temperament and lack of interest in other dogs, and quickly left the park. The moral is that owners must understand their dog's behaviors and needs before going to the dog park to avoid potential conflicts.
Volunteers in Buffalo, NY helped shovel out residents after a lake-effect snowstorm dumped over 7 feet of snow in some areas. Hundreds of volunteers helped clear snow from homes, especially for elderly residents. The city was working to clear streets before warmer temperatures and rain caused potential flooding. In Lorain, OH, the city treasurer announced she would run for city auditor in an upcoming election after the current auditor announced his retirement. A man also remained missing after disappearing from a park in Lorain over a week ago.
A grand jury decided not to indict Darren Wilson, the white police officer who fatally shot Michael Brown, an unarmed black teenager, in Ferguson, Missouri. Within minutes of the announcement, protests erupted in Ferguson with some demonstrators vandalizing police cars and buildings. The prosecuting attorney said the grand jury heard over 70 hours of testimony from about 60 witnesses over 25 days before making their decision.
Judge James Burge lifted his own order recusing himself from cases involving Assistant County Prosecutor Tony Cillo. In January, Burge had removed himself from several of Cillo's cases, including a capital murder case, to focus on his duties as administrative judge and due to concerns about wasting county resources. On Thursday, Burge said his January order did not have the intended effect, so he was lifting the recusal.

living with a professional trainer.
Caramel is crate trained and has all of
her house manners including being
house trained. Caramel does OK with
other dogs after a proper introduction
and we feel the same about cats. She
should be fine with children at least
10-12 years of age. Caramel would
prefer a fenced in yard to be able to
explore at her leisure. Caramel also
comes with a free training session to
a new adopter. She’s a friendly,
happy girl.

Carol 440-774-
1071 or Peggy
440-984-7014
Personality: Misty
is one beautiful girl
who is waiting for
the right caregiver.
She was originally adopted from the Lorain County Dog Kennel
and lived in a home for a few years. Her petite caregiver was
unable to handle her on walks — Misty was simply too strong.
Misty needs to go to a home with a strong leader, both mentally
and physically. We believe Misty would benefit from any type of
training so she may build the self confidence she may be
missing. She would do great with any type of job to do. Misty is
housetrained and has all of her house manners. She definitely
would do best as the only dog. She did live with cats in her
other home. We think any children should be older, at least
teenagers. Misty enjoys car rides and does great in the car. We
would prefer a secure fenced in yard for her to be able to enjoy
at her leisure. Misty will make a wonderful best friend to the
right person. She’s a very devoted dog.
Have you ever wondered why
wet dogs shake or cats knead?
Pets do strange (sometimes
even gross) things that we own-
ers wonder about.
I consulted with Dr. Alex
O’Roark of Elyria Animal Hos-
pital to answer some of the age-
old questions we have about
our pets. Here are his answers.
(Okay, let’s get this one out of
the way first!)
Q.Why do dogs eat poop?
A. Because they like the taste.
Studies have been done to see if
the offender had a nutritional
deficiency or parasites that
would compete for nutrients,
but neither is the case. There
are at least two commercial
products that can be added to
the dogs’ food that taste good,
but change the stool so the
dogs no longer desire it.
Q.Why do cats howl in the
middle of the night?
A. First, see a veterinarian to
rule out any medical problems.
They like attention; cats are
active at night, but every per-
son is sleeping. Cats also see
and hear things people can’t or
don’t, such as another cat wan-
dering outside.
Q.Why do cats purr?
A. Studies have failed to
definitively answer that ques-
tion, but it is assumed that it
means they are happy.
Q.Why do cats knead?
A. It is a left-over infantile
behavior. Kittens knead the
queen’s mammary glands to
stimulate milk let-down.
Q.Why do dogs shake when
they are wet?
A. They feel the weight of
the water and its stimulus on
their skin. If dogs are in snow,
they usually leave it on them-
selves until body heat melts
the snow, when the water
builds up and reaches the
skin.
Q.Why do dogs shake their
heads when they wake up?
A. Probably part of their
routine, similar to stretching
or back scratching.
Q. Do hamsters really eat
their young?
A. Yes, as do many other ani-
mals. The cause is unknown,
but probably an ingrained
behavior. Other animals may
eat the unhealthy, or because
of bad parenting, and possibly
survival and competition for
food.
Q. Why do cats like catnip?
A. It has a stimulating, then
calming, effect. It acts like a
drug in their bodies.
Q. Can dogs really smile?
A. Some dogs show what
looks like a smile, but it is not
due to happiness or joy. It can
happen from stress or be a
learned behavior.
Q. Why do cats like to
scratch things such as furni-
ture, but dogs do not?
A. Cats have retractable
claws; dogs have constantly
exposed nails. Cats do it to
sharpen the nail and exercise
the toes. It feels good, like
stretching.
Q.Why are some dogs fas-
tidious about keeping their
private parts clean?
A. Many dogs just have that
habit. It can also be due to a
medical problem or a psycho-
logical problem such as Obses-
sive Compulsive Disorder or
boredom. Check for drainage
from or a build-up on the spe-
cific area. It may just feel good.
If you have a question that
you’d like to see answered by
O’Roark in an upcoming col-
umn, please email me at cham-
comm@aol.com and I will ask
him. Of course, your own vet-
erinarian should also be con-
sulted to rule out any potential
medical problems.

Amber
Amber is as
sweet as can
be. Her family
had to give her
up because
they couldn’t
afford to keep
her any longer.
They said
Amber was just a big baby of a dog that
loves people of all ages including kids.
She’s an attention getter who loves to
be petted. Amber has never been
around cats. She loves car rides, playing
with her ball and she will even play
fetch. If you have kids and/or another
dog in your family and are interested in
adopting a Friendship dog please bring
them with you for a meet and greet. No
appointment is necessary. Stop by
anytime during regular business hours.

Bandit
Beat it down to Friendship for Bandit!
He is a transfer from another facility.
This handsome boy is super friendly,
strong and will need some training.
Bandit could really use an active family
that will include him in their activities. A
fenced in yard wouldn’t hurt either. With
a little guidance he’ll be a wonderful
family pet. Stop by and spend some
time with Bandit to find out more. Bandit
is with his buddy and APL Volunteer
Aaron.

everyone he meets including
kids, cats and other dogs.

hair loss at times due to flea
allergies. With a good flea
medication he is fine. Need
a new best friend? Spanky

Ronnie
I’m a friendly, good looking girl who keeps her pen
very clean. My hobbies include playing tug (with
anything resembling a rope), chasing balls in the
snow and walking people. I have lots of energy and
would like to find a loving owner who will give me
plenty of exercise. I’ve had canine playmates but am
parrticular about which dogs I’ll befriend. Please
contact Oasis and arrange to meet me at the shelter
or privately.

Snickerdoodle
Snickerdoodle
shares her name with
a cookie and she is
just as sweet.
Snickerdoodle was
rescued by
Friendship APL in
2013. Per her foster
family, she enjoys
scrambled eggs. In
December, Snickerdoodle was diagnosed
with cerebellar hypoplasia, a defect in the
brain that results in a loss of fine-motor
coordination. This affects Snickerdoodle’s
balance and walking. There is no known
cure for cerebella hypoplasia, but with a
little help from friends Snickerdoodle can
make adjustments and lead a happy life.
Due to her condition Snick would do best
in an adult household or one with older
kids.
Breed: Pekingese mix
Spayed Female: Shots up to date
Age and Weight: 2 years old and 10 lbs.
