First off, if your going to be rude, please don't comment.
X There is this shelter that is closing after my birthday, (meaning all the dogs will be moved farther into another state), and i've had my eye on this one dog. I've visted her 4 times before, and she's such a sweet heart. (Shiba inu mix)
X My aunt's dog is also giving birth in a few months. (Yorkshire terrier)
How can I convince my dad to get me a dog?
My mom, sister and I want one (3>1).
I'm a female whom has been trying my complete hardest for over 6 years to convince my dad to get me a dog. My uncles,aunts,cousins, both grandmothers/grandfathers, mom, and sister wants to get one. My family members have even volunteered to get us one. We think he has the fear of getting the dog, when it passes. He does not want to deal with the grief do to past experiences with his two Yorkshire Terriers. Please note when he was younger, HE owned dogs and cats that he actually CARED for, and LOOKED after. He had three dogs and a cat during his childhood, and supposedly he took in another stray cat (however that's according to him about the stray cat that 'he took in', as my grandmother does not recall of it, nor has pictures of this mysterious cat.)
It was purely HIS idea to put me in this dog training group, he found it and everything. I've been in this club for 3 years, and it's my first week by taking in my aunt's dog. She's still a puppy, and he does not seem to show much interest in her, but he'll glance at her every once in awhile.
I live with my mom,sister, and dad by the way. I was only listing family members whom volunteered.) We currently own two birds and had fish. He did not want anything to do with neither of the animals, but he got immune to them and now he will talk to the birds, and mess around with them by making high pitched voices, and having them copy. He seems to like them - and will actually look after them, for intence, when one of the birds was regurgitating food, for the female bird. Which worried him.
Any ideas?
