    But as they can speak, and some of them can speak well, speech incurs dissatisfaction within the pack, which complicates dogs’ purposes of living. From “It wasn’t just that Prince was twisting their clear, noble language, it was that Prince has gone beyond the canine” (Alexis 26), it can be inferred that the superfluous use of language incurs antipathy, and this kind of antipathy later magnifies to be a conspiracy of eliminating those who enjoy new language. If they lived in a pattern of hunting and gathering, and communicated by merely barking, who would have felt so bad and would have planned such a scheme to get rid of pack members? It is the infusion of language as well as human intelligence that makes them so different.…

    Once upon a time, there was a small, seaside town, along the coast of the vast Pacific Ocean, called Arcadia, and in that small seaside town, there lived a girl named Parker Garcia, who, with the help of some friends and maybe just a little magic, started a revolution that brought love and acceptance to the small town. The small town of Arcadia over looked the pacific ocean from a glorious cliff side that was carved with one of the only freeways in the town. Almost every morning the citizens of Arcadia were awoken at an early hour by the sound of a motor bike ripping along the freeway. Now most people didn’t mind the noise so much as they minded the rider. Parker Garcia was the town’s resident rebel and disliked by a fair few in Arcadia, especially…
