  1. well, i'd say to show your parents that u are responsible, and then they might change their mind. that's all i got. hope it helps :D
  2. Your parents said no. If you live under their roof, you live with their rules. Why don't you search the gazillion other questions from kids wanting a dog when their parents say no? You'll find all the same answers you're going to get here in there, too.
  3. SHOW that you are responsible. Get a job, babysit, or take care of other peoples pets. Try to show them you can take care of a pet.
  4. u should get a pembroke welsh corgi! they r very cute, and have very short and cute little stubby legs!
  5. Their house their rules Suck it up and yes you can live without a dog. You've done it for 3 years.
  6. Your plan & any attempts to show you're responsible will be taking by your parents for what they're worth..... an attempt by you to do what's necessary just to get a dog. If you were in fact responsible, and they believed that you would take care of all your new dog's needs BEYOND the honeymoon period, then they might feel differently. They know you, we don't. You can't expect them with such a young baby to have to care for & train a puppy when you're not around. School will start soon enough, then guess who gets stuck with ALL the responsibility?
  7. GET YOUR own puppy that wont get to big and wont be to small i prefer you get a Pomeranian or a jack Russel terrier they both are very calm and quit and are easy to take care of trust me on this one i know what going on. I had this prob many times i have a jack Russel terrier now and she is a great dog with younger kids~!!! and people. Good Luck!
  8. Well for starters, how about trying the following: #1 Cleaning your room and making sure that it STAYS clean and tidy. #2 Making sure that your homework is done and handed in on time. #3 Sweep the floors in the living room and kitchen without your parents asking you to. #4 Wash and/or dry the dishes. #5 Do not fight and argue with your sisters & brothers. #6 Eat what you are given and don't whine or make "yuck" faces when given it. #7 Don't talk rudly to adults #8 Always share with other kids. #9 Go to bed when you are told to. #10 Research the pet and breed you want to be 100% certain that it is the right one for you. # 11 Ask them about getting this new pet in a nice way and don't beg and whine about it. I'm 100% sure that if you give those a try, they will see that you are serious about wanting to add a this pet to your life and family. :)
