Persuasive Writing - Why we should have pets

We have been having a go at writing a piece of persuasive writing. Here is my piece of writing about why we should have pets.

eg. ‘Rugby League Is A Great Sport’

IT IS A GOOD IS A GOOD IDEA TO HAVE PETS!!!!!

Series of Arguments
Reasons
Your points supporting your view about the topic.  Your arguments to support your statement and information to support these arguments.

Remember

Firstly, we should have pets because pets can be trained to do special jobs. For example, they can do Search and Rescue and they can go with people to look for lost people. Also dogs can be guard dogs and they watch their owners properties for burglars or robbers. Also there can be airport dogs which can see if people are carrying drugs to a place.




Secondly, pets can comfort you and keep you company. For example, people that live alone usually have pets to keep them company. Also if people are sad or unhappy pets can make them feel better by doing tricks or jumping and licking the people which people really love!




Thirdly, pets can help people with disabilities. For example, people can be sick and their pets can make them feel better. Also pets can remind people to take their medicine. Sometimes if people are blind they use dogs that can show them the way to go.




Finally, pets can produce food and resources for people. For example, cows and goats produce milk. Chickens produce eggs and sheep produce wool. Also if you have a special machine you can get bacon from pigs.




Concluding statement
Summing it up.  A summary of your arguments and your view on the topic.

In conclusion I believe that people should have pets because pets can be trained to do special jobs, pets can comfort you and keep you company, pets can help people with disabilities, and pets can produce food and resources for people. I strongly believe that people should have pets.
