Welome to ERWC online Discussion Board. Each week I will post a discussion question here. Part of your grade will be based upon your response to the question as well as on your responses to other students' posts.
Please maintain a professional manner when posting. Do not engage in put downs or use inappropriate language. This is an English course and yes, grammar, spelling, all that "English stuff" does matter.
The question will be posted on Monday each week. You must respond to the discussion question by Wednesday, before 10 p.m. You must also respond to a minimum of three other posts during the week. These responses must be spread out over the week showing a minimum of three days that you visited and posted on the discussion board.
When the question refers to a specific reading be sure to include information from that reading in your response. All responses (to the DQ) must be thorough and answer all parts of the question.
Enjoy your interaction with your classmates.

After reading "The Last Meow" do you agree or disagree with Bilger's argument that American's have gone too far in their love affair with their pets? Explain your position and include evidence from the article to support your position.
