INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Most signs of arthritis are related to mobility. Often one particular joint is affected more than the others, and this can lead to your dog limping or standing with less weight on the sore leg than his other legs. However, in the early stages, your dog can often run freely and forget about the discomfort when he sees something to chase after. Therefore, it can appear that the lameness comes and goes and is worse before a walk than during the walk. A dog with arthritis has a tendency to be worse the day after vigorous exercise. He may chase happily after a ball one day, but the next day when the joint is still inflamed, he will often limp more than before. Arthritis can cause your dog to avoid activities she once enjoyed. Your dog may be reluctant to go for her favorite walk or refuse to jump into your vehicle or on furniture. Arthritis causes pain for your dog. Look for whining when he walks. Your dog may also nip at you or seem upset when you touch the affected area. If your dog has an early stage of arthritis, she will often be stiff when she has been resting for a while, such as first thing in the morning or after sleeping. She may spend time stretching and padding around in a stilted way before her joints and muscles warm up and she can move more freely. Pain and discomfort can also affect your dog's mood. Pain can make an animal withdrawn or depressed and change his habits. Pain can also make your dog short-tempered and prone to snapping or aggressive behavior, so a change in his behavior should trigger you to look for an underlying problem, like arthritis.

SUMMARY: Take notice of any limping. Watch for avoidance of activities. Look for signs of pain. Watch for stiffness. Watch for mood changes.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: When using third person omniscient perspective, the narrative jumps around from person to person instead of following the thoughts, actions, and words of a single character. The narrator knows everything about each character and the world. The narrator can reveal or withhold any thoughts, feelings, or actions. For instance, a story may include four major characters: William, Bob, Erika, and Samantha. At various points throughout the story, the thoughts and actions of each character should be portrayed. These thoughts can occur within the same chapter or block of narration. Example: "William thought that Erika was lying, but he still wanted to believe that she had a good reason for doing so. On the other hand, Samantha believed that Erika was lying and felt jealous about the fact that Tony wanted to think well of the other girl at all." Writers of omniscient narratives should be conscious of "head-hopping" that is, shifting character perspectives within a scene. While this does not technically break the rules of Third Person Omniscience, it is widely considered a hallmark of narrative laziness. With third person omniscient view, the narration is not limited the inner thoughts and feelings of any character. Along with inner thoughts and feelings, third person omniscient point of view also permits the writer to reveal parts of the future or past within the story. The narrator can also hold an opinion, give a moral perspective, or discuss animals or nature scenes where the characters are not present. In a sense, the writer of a third person omniscient story is somewhat like the "god" of that story. The writer can observe the external actions of any character at any time, but unlike a limited human observer, the writer can also peek into the inner workings of that character at will, as well. Know when to hold back. Even though a writer can reveal any information he or she chooses to reveal, it may be more beneficial to reveal some things gradually. For instance, if one character is supposed to have a mysterious aura, it would be wise to limit access to that character's inner feelings for a while before revealing his or her true motives. Active dialog should be the only time that first person pronouns like "I" and "we" should appear. The same goes for second person pronouns like "you." Do not use first person and second person points of view in the narrative or descriptive portions of the text. Correct example: Bob said to Erika, "I think this is creepy. What do you think?" Incorrect example: I thought this was creepy, and Bob and Erika thought so, too. What do you think?

SUMMARY:
Shift your focus from character to character. Reveal any information you want. Avoid use of the first person and second person pronouns.
