Noone in my family admits they like my dog so I'm running a week long campaign to raise appreciation for her and need some fun ideas!?

This is a law of your municipality (or development if you have deed restrictions or by-laws) and not one for the entire state. Generally though in all but the most rural areas, you are required to pick up after your dog. In addition to being the law it's also common courtesy.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
