How do I convince my parents to get me a puppy?
First, how old are you? They could be skeptical you are responsible enough for such a large task.I just got my first puppy, all mine to feed and clean up after and play with. And let me tell you it is HARD.She sleeps with me, so twice a night she wakes me up to go potty. I prefer this over cleaning it out of a crate. So I sleep very poorly. Then she I wakes me up at 7 am for breakfast. There is no sleeping in. She will whine until fed. But in her defense she's just gone like 13 hrs since her last feeding (dinner).Once she is fed I must wait for her to poop before play or snuggles. Sometimes it takes 10 mins, sometimes an hr. now we got lucky to have a pup that will play with her toys at the foot of the bed if I want to nap after breakfast. You probably won't be so lucky.i don't get a lunch break at work because I spend it coming home to feed her and make sure she goes potty.When I come home from work she is fed dinner, potty, play before she finally naps around 7pm.She needs to be dewormed every 2 weeks. Vaccinations every 3 weeks til she's finished. She will need a rabies shot at 12 weeks.i must socialize her. Train her. Take her on walks.Now consider this before discussing with your parents:-who will pay the vet bill?-microchipping and neutering is important as well.-what if there's an emergency, who will pay that expense?-who will purchase the crate, toys, leashes, puppy pads, etc.-if you work or attend school, is anyone else willing to spend time with her in case you cannot for a few Hrs?you shouldnt leave a puppy in a crate for 8 hrs, that's just wrong and detrimental to their wellbeing.-do you have a fenced in yard?-electric fences are helpful, when they're older.Puppies are expensive and very time consuming.I would suggest getting a short lived pet, such as a hamster to prove you're responsible enough first.or if you can make a plan, address any issues, write them down and sit your parents down to make a proposal.This is my sweet Bella. She loves leaves, naps, and belly rubs.Good luck!
How to Convince your parents to get another dog?
Your parents probably miss the dog as much as you do. I think three months is enough time to wait before getting another dog but your parents have made a valid point in that all the work of the new dog will fall on them with you in school. This may be too much on your mom right now. A new dog needs to be a family decision. Give your mom some space and discuss getting a new dog with her again in about a month or two. Don't even mention getting another dog for the next 4-8 weeks. Then maybe make a list as to the benefits of having a dog. Do something really nice for your mom and hand her the list along with a giant hug. Then see what happens.
I am very responsible and can take care of myself well and I want to get a pet dog - how do I convince my parents to get me one?
There are several reasons why your parents may not want a dog:Dogs cost money.They are a lot of work.They need long-term commitment.Some people are allergic to dogs.Some people don't like dogs.The costs of a dog include:the original purchase priceveterinarian billsfoodobedience classesother things that the dog needs, such as leashes and toysOnce upon a time my parents are too in a category amongst the people who hate dogs or any other pets. its hard to convince them for dog …bacause its a responsibility.the thing me n my sister did was-explained my parents why we want a dog.i told them about all of the advantages of having a dog.i answer the concerns that my parents have about getting a dog.first we find out before convincing my parents to have a dog is what they think about having a dog. The more i find out what their concerns are, the better i put forward my ideas.and yes , Don't nag about getting a dog. It will only irritate your parents.Getting a dog has to be a family decision. If your parents really don't want a dog, your family should not get a dog. It would not be fair to the dog.at the end, we are able to convince our parents for pets,i have a pet now…her name is mini.and my mom loves her more than we did, or may be more than us. now the view of my parents towards having a dog is completely changed .they treat her like their own bacha…the thing my parents used to buy three..now the count is increased by +1.
What is a way to convince your parents to get another dog?
First understand dogs are expensive to raise and keep. If money is tight in your household then a dog may not be a luxury they can afford. If not, then we can part ways with this argument.Next, understand the time needed to care for a dog. They are extremely dependent and a poor choice of pet for a youth if the parents don’t want to be involved. Are you ready and willing to take the dog for his walks, rain, snow, or shine, plus play time, plus housebreaking and training time, plus conditioning time, plus grooming time? Think carefully how this will affect your social life now and in the future; a dog will live twelve years at least and you have a lot of life changes ahead of you, including a social life that will only expand. Do extensive research about dog ownership. Buy a book on dog ownership, read it. Be honest with yourself and don’t let passion make your choice.Now sit with your parents and show them how you have covered all the bases. Wow them with your knowledge of what to expect and how you have already planned to deal with the trials and obsticals of dog ownership.Honestly, your parents need to want a dog as well because they will inevitably be a part of caring for it.

How do i convince my parents to get me a 3rd dog?
Honestly, the best way to convince your parents is to not say anything at all. Parents HATE to be nagged! Try to keep up your grades, keep your room clean, and help out around the house. But don't kiss up, it's obnoxious. But you really need to try and see things from your parents point of view. Your last puppy didn't work out, that's discouraging and dissapointing. So why would they do that all over again? Puppies do cost money, not only the upfront payment but vet bills, food, and flea,tick and worm preventative. Not to mention bathroom breaks at 4:30 in the morning anf the whining and crying. As tempting as puppies are, believe me they are tempting to have, your parents might be more willing to get an older dog. That's right, adoption! There are over 2 million great dogs waiting on homes. And you don't have to go get a mutt from a shelter (although shelter dogs do make the best dogs. Many of them are put down every day!) If your looking for a specific breed you can search for breed specific dog rescues in your area. For example, my mom is the intake coordinater for a golden retriever rescue. You should at least look into it. Many of the dogs are grown, already house trained, evaluated, and have had those pricey puppy shots, and they are spayed/ neautered. If you do end up with a puppy please avoid backyard breeders and puppy mills. Find a reputable breeder and always spay/neauter your dog. Best of luck!!
Convince parents to get me a big dog?
ok I have been wanting a Newfoundland for years now but the problem is my parents don't like big dogs. The reason they don't like them is first my mom doesn't want them to scratch her floors but we only have hardwood floors on the first floor and they are mostly covered with rugs. Secondly because they shed and drool a ton but i will be willing to clean up after it. Third because one of my moms friend had 2 big Labradoodles and they were bad!! like she let them ruin her house and so my mom believes that all big dogs are like that. And lastly the cost but I am willing to get a job and pay for it. I really want one!! I have depression and i think that it would be great because I currently don't do anything all day so this will get me back into a routine and also it might help. Thank you
How can I convince my parents to buy me a dog? My parents hate dogs and I am a 12 year old guy.
Wait!!! Are you my younger self?? Look if you're then let me tell you few things,1. Don't stop eating because it'll never ever gonna work. I've already tried that. Believe me it won't change their decision.2. Don't try to argue with them unless you wanna end up with their fingerprints on your cheeks.3. If you still wanna a dog. Then try to convince your dad, not mom (if she's supportive then go for mom). When you're going to talk to your dad, make sure that you hadn't done anything wrong in past 3 weeks (including arguments with mom).And when you come up with an idea and it'll actually work, then feel free to suggest me.
How do I convince my parents to get a second dog?
A Beagle would be a good choice, they are good family dogs, don't shed that much, and relatively get along well with other dogs, most of the time. To persuade your parents, first you must show them you are responsible, do your chores, homework, and take good care of your golden retriever first. Then write a well thought out essay to your parents, telling why you want this dog and what responsibilities you will have. Leave it for them to read, hold a family meeting, or read it at the dinner table one night. If they say yes, make sure to meet the dog before getting it, and maybe get your dogs to meet to ensure that they will be a good match. If your parents say no, then that probably means that they really don't want you to have another dog, give it time, and continue showing your parents how responsible you can be! Hope this Helped!
