    show that you are responsible..do chores without asking, do what you're told right away, etc. puppies are a LOT of work and take a LOT of patience and need training. no puppy/dog is cheap either. AND make sure you tell your parents that you will help them out with the puppy and do it. If your parents won't go for a puppy, then I suggest that you ask them if you can get an adult dog. Good luck. also, there are a lot of adult dogs that need homes in shelters/rescues, too.

    I agree with Krista. Just what I was going to say

    iluvskipper, were you planning on buying a pup from a breeder, or rescuing from a shelter? Shelter animals always need help more than dogs that were bred. Sometimes, you can even find puppies at a shelter!

    you can also find them at rescues, too. it's puppy season, so I am sure you can find one at a shelter/rescue.

    Focus a lot of love and time and attention on any pets you have already, so your parent's know you can handle another. Of course, ideally, you've been doing all that anyway, and will continue to do so once there is a new pet there.

    Good Luck in convincing your parents!
