I used to beg and beg and beg my parents to get a dog. Finally, when I was 14, they gave in. Then, after I went to college, got married, etc, they got to more! They made me wait 14 years and now they have 3! Little irony there...

What are their reasons for not wanting you to have another dog? You are obviuosly respensible and take very good care of Simba. How would he tolerate a puppy?

Good luck. I hope they give in
