Problem: Article: Cervical disc disease, also known as a slipped disc, tends to happen as dogs age. Typically discs "slip" in one of two ways: disc extrusion, in which the nucleus pulposus slips out from the center of a vertebra and causes damage to the spinal cord, or disc protrusion, in which the fibrous ring around vertebrae grow thicker, causing the spinal cord to painfully contract. Typical symptoms include: Neck pain/sensitivity Yelping or crying Rigidity of the neck Difficulty or inability to lower the head during feeding Difficulty walking Arched back Down-turned head Incontinence Paralysis A veterinarian is the only person who can diagnose cervical disc disease. He will probably take X-rays of the neck and spine to determine whether a disc extrusion or protrusion is the cause of your dog's pain. Unless your vet recommends surgery to correct the slipped disc, the best way to treat cervical disc disease is through supportive care. Keep walks relatively short. Use a harness on walks instead of locking the leash to your dog's collar, as a collar may put additional strain on your dog's neck. Administer any pain medication or muscle relaxants your vet prescribes for your dog.
Summary: Identify the symptoms of cervical disc disease. Get a diagnosis. Give your dog supportive care.

Problem: Article: Place a sheet of brown paper on a flat surface. Smooth out the paper, then set your picture frame on top of it facing down. Grab the long edges of the paper and pull them over the picture frame, securing them with artist tape. Then, fold the small edges of the paper in, pull them over the picture frame, and hold them in place with more tape. You can purchase brown shipping paper at most craft and shipping supply stores. Buy 4 protective cardboard corners, typically available at a craft supply or shipping store. If they do not come pre-built, put them together by following the instructions included with the purchase or printed on the corners themselves. Then, place a cardboard protector on every corner of your picture frame, better shielding them from impact damage. Grab a sheet of cardboard that is about the same size as your painting. Lay it over the top side of the picture frame so that the glass has an extra layer of defense. Though not necessary, you can secure it to the brown paper with artist tape if you wish. Put down a piece of bubble wrap and set your picture frame on top of it. Grab the long ends of the the protective material and wrap them tightly around your frame, securing them with masking tape. Then, fold the short ends up over the frame and tape them down. For picture frames containing particularly valuable works of art, add 1 to 2 additional layers of bubble wrap. Look for bubble wrap at discount, craft, and shipping supply stores.
Summary: Wrap brown paper around the frame. Use cardboard covers to protect the frame corners. Put a cardboard sheet on the top side of your picture frame. Cover your picture frame with bubble wrap.

Problem: Article: You should start your conclusion with the ideas you expressed in your thesis. Don't just copy-and-paste your thesis. Instead, rewrite your thesis with the weight of your argument behind it. Your reader has now read all of your points and evidence, and your thesis should reflect this. For example, you could restate your thesis like this: The poem "Raspberries" provides an allegorical representation of youth through a metaphor of ripening berries, summer blossoming, and blushing color of the fruit. If you're a beginning writer, it's okay to start your conclusion with "In conclusion." However, if you're an advanced writer, avoid starting your conclusion with statements like "In conclusion," "To conclude," or "In the end." Include a review of how each body paragraph supported your thesis, reminding the reader of your arguments. You should write two to three sentences that briefly explain what you've said. Use an authoritative tone as you restate your arguments so that your reader walks away knowing that you are correct. Providing new information in your thesis can result in lost points on your essay. This will cause your reader to walk away with questions instead of confidence in your ideas. In a conclusion, you should only be restating what you've already said. Your concluding sentence should leave the reader with a lasting impression of your topic. Use this statement to ensure that your reader keeps thinking about your essay after they have finished reading it. The following are great ideas for writing a good concluding sentence: Include a call to action. Provide a warning about what could happen if your stance is ignored. Create an image in the reader's mind. Include a quote. Make a universal statement about life.
Summary:
Restate your thesis. Summarize how your points supported your thesis. Avoid introducing new information. Tie up your essay with a concluding sentence.
