Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My car is a 2006 Cadillac DTS.  I was having a difficult time starting it.  I was
told to try to start my t in neutral, no luck.  I recharged the battery until fully
charged.  There is no clicking noise, lights are very bright, everything else
seems to work fine.  It won't start.  It will, HOWEVER, START IF
JUMPED....ANY THOUGHTS!  ( if you got a picture of the car & a surprise, e
joy it.....I think I may have sent a picture of the dog)
