Policy Development : Pet Policy

The evaluation stage will help to discover any problems that have developed through the implementation process and changes in the policy by helping to solve any of the problems if necessary. Below is a picture that will show you and indicate the six processes of evaluation that will help identify the probability of the policy that

The Jake’s Pet Land case study is an example of leadership and follower situations, highlighting the key points of each role within an organization. This case is a study on how the leader-member exchange (LMX) impacts the outcomes of workplaces. According to Daft, LMX is individualized leader model that explores how the relationship between leader and follower develops over time and how the quality of the exchange relationship affects outcomes (Daft, 2015, p. 54). The LMX in many cases is the foundation an organization is built upon, because of this comes a great understanding between management and subordinates. There is a massive difference between being a manager and an effective leader, and throughout Jake’s Pet Land case study this notion is very evident.

Pet owners have a wide variety of views about their responsibilities. Some feel that just providing food and water is enough and therefore do not provide a secure environment which is essential for all pets. Without this secure environment, a female in heat is a target for every male around. The males will go to great lengths to get to a female in heat. Her scent is a driving force. Some owners will allow their females to continue to come into heat over and over again, making her a target for every un-neutered male around, without trying to solve the problem. The males' owners will allow their animals to continue to roam freely because they feel they are not the responsible party to the unwanted pregnancies. Homes may be found for some of the offspring, some may die, and some may just wander off. Of those to survive, the breeding cycle can start all over again. Also, many owners do not realize that having a pet is a commitment for the life of the pet. When some owners get tired of their current pet, want a new pet, or get irritated because the pet does not meet their expectations, they will dump the pet thinking it will fend for itself or find a new home. Of the animals taken into shelters, 47% of the cats and 55% of the dogs are not spayed or neutered (Patelis).

Attention Getter: We all see them, those sad little faces that look up at us with their sad eyes. They need homes and families that love them, they are stray animals.

In order to first start a policy process, the problem for which a policy is to be created must be identified and the policy holding a solution to the problem. Researchers and stakeholders will investigate the problem to identify if the policy will reach the policy making agenda. Policies must be to improve society’s health and wellbeing. In the United States (U.S.) public health related issues that require a formulation of a new policy and come from local, state, or federal legislations which ruling govern the provision of health care services and regulations. In this

The first big reason why pets should be allowed in schools is because it teaches the students good skills. According to the article “Pets Enhance Learning” pets can teach kids responsibility. One way pets teach kids responsibility is by teaching the kids to perform tasks that help the animal survive. This shows that kids will learn to be able to take care of another living thing. To add on to this, it also proves that kids will be taught how to do a job from a young age which will help them when they are older. The other piece of evidence I have as to why pets in the classroom will teach kids valuable skills is because it will teach them empathy. Empathy the ability to understand and share the feelings of another and pets in the classroom will make kids learn this. For example, as stated in the article “Should You Have A Pet in Your Classroom?” building empathy will enhance the desire to show animals with respect. Not only does this goes towards animals its also true towards humans. Most kids who have pets are more kind and empathetic towards both humans and animals. Also this proves empathy is important to other kids is because kids who are more empathetic have a way lower chance of bullying another human. This without a doubt shows that empathy is a great thing all students should learn and the easiest way to do that is with a classroom pet. Having a classroom pet would also motivate the students.

Canines are extremely messy, needy and smelly. They slobber, stink and need to be taken on walks. A dog will slobber on you and your things like a non-stop waterfall. They’re slobber, like the rest of their body reeks. Their smell will not only be on them but on you, your house and in your car. Wouldn’t you rather have an animal that keeps its saliva inside its mouth and hardly smells of anything? Unlike cats, dogs also have to be taken outside on walks to use the bathroom. A cat on the other hand will quietly use the litter box without your help. You could always let your dog out in

There are 1.5 dogs and cats put to sleep every second & 4-6 million dogs and cats are euthanized every year, states the Humane Society. The pet overpopulation epidemic has become more than overwhelming. But who is at fault for the ever increasing number of homeless and euthanized pets each year? The public, government and breeders all have their hand in this catastrophic epidemic. So who is to blame for this

In recent years our newspapers, televisions, and radios have been inundated with news stories about sexual offenders and sexual predators. Stories such as the kidnapping and murder of Polly Klass, Carlie Brucia, Amber Hagerman, and Jessica Lunsford have shocked the nation. Sex offenders and predators commit despicable acts; however, their acts seem more despicable when they are committed upon the most venerable members of our society, our children. Even with the new Jessica Lunsford legislation in Florida some citizens feel that it is not enough to keep their communities safe. Many cities are now looking at limiting the areas in which sex offenders and predators can live in hopes of protecting children. Many

In the United States, Veteran’s health care at an economical rate is a continuous debate. It is warranted that the health care should improve at a constant rate to uphold the health needs of veterans, new and old. Government has the veterans association (VA) and with all the help it has available for veterans there are still times when that care is not enough. There are so many individuals that are without health care because of one reason for another and it leaves many injured and hurt veterans without the care they need and deserve. Better access to health for veterans, men and women is important since many new problems such as PTSD have become better understood and need more focus and to be better

The law now holds both the owner and landlords accountable for just the one specific breed of dog creating complications for many families and many animal shelters. Families are being torn apart under this new law causing them to have to make

Purpose of / Need for the Policy: Our school has high expectations for academic success and conduct, that are clearly outlined, assessable, and no excuses are made because of the upbringing of students. Students, teachers, parents, and staff initiate and reinforce a culture of achievement and encouragement with a range of formal rewards and consequences for behavior and academic performance.

Many would argue that people do not always know what is best for their animals. Often, the owners of pets act out of self-interest rather than considering how the modification they are doing to their animal will affect it. Although declawing a cat may save the owner 's walls, couches, and skin from destruction, it also puts the cat through severe joint and back pain, depression, increased biting behavior, and disfigurement (Associated Press). These serious physiological and psychological side-effects of the modification should be taken more seriously than they are now and better considered

This Act has for the first time introduced legislation for pet owners meaning that the owners have a legal duty of care to meet the five welfare needs of their pets. The welfare needs are also known as the five freedoms and they are the basic needs of any animal. The law also applies to people who are responsible for animals, such as breeders and those who keep working animals. (APGAW. No Date)
