My parents both love the dogs but they are very strict about allowing pets into the house. It's not a go get a pet and bring it home situation, at ALL. They complain about the dog hair and the the dirt the dogs track in etc. often, but they do love and enjoy them....I wish they'd just love them enough to let me get another husky.

As for my betta neither wanted me to get it but allowed it as the tank is in my room and they don't have to do anything with it. I don't think they like or dislike him really. I've tried to convince them another husky would mostly stay in my room but it hasn't worked lol.

When my brother and sister lived at home neither were too interested in the dogs much, but now they both have dogs of their own, go figure.
