How do you get your mom to get you a new puppy?

Answer 1

How to Convince Your Parents to Let You Have a Dog
Find out your parents' objections and overcome them. Point out the benefits that the dog can bring to your family.

Talk to your parents. Be honest about your intentions. Let them know that you are definitely old enough to handle the responsibility of owning a pet. Be ready to demonstrate that by volunteering to be tested. A good test is the egg test. Have your parents mark an egg in indelible ink, and then give it to you to take care of for one week. Take it with you everywhere. Keep it clean and, most importantly, don't break it! If at the end of the week you still have the egg, it just might help you in your begging for a pet.
List the benefits of having a dog:


It will help you to be responsible.
The dog may alert the family if there is a burglar in the house.
The dog can become a companion for the whole family.
Offer to help with the extra housecleaning and vacuuming. Dogs can be messy. They shed their hairs. Since it is you who wants a dog, you should make the extra effort. You should explain to your parents that you are willing to do this before the dog gets there to prove your sincerity.
Learn how to house-train a dog so that it will not poop in the house. Books on the subject can be found and borrowed free from your local library.
Take a friend or relative's dog for a weekend as a "test run" to show your parents that you are ready for the responsibility.
Offer to help pay for the dog food by doing extra chores or contributing some of your pocket money.

If your parents, after all you have done to convince your parents that you are responsible enough to have a dog and really take care of it, still decide that they don't want to or cannot have a dog, here are some more things you can do:
You can find out where the animal shelters are in your neighborhood and go volunteer there to help take care of some homeless dogs.
You can find out if there are elderly neighbors who have dogs and cannot walk them regularly. You could volunteer to walk their dogs for them.
Dogs, especially puppies, need a lot of things to chew on while they are developing their teeth. You can also find suggestions on how to keep your dog from chewing your shoes and clothes. You must be prepared to get them rawhide or bones to chew.
Dogs need regular exercise. You will have to sacrifice some of your personal time with friends or hobbies to walk your dog. It may help to convince your parents that you are willing to do this if you announce daily that you are now going for a 'pretend walk' with your dog so they believe you. You will have to do this regularly once the dog gets there, and more than once a day.
Dogs cannot be left behind while the family goes on vacation. If you leave for a family vacation, you must either find a friend to take care of your dog while you are gone or take the dog to a kennel. You should find a friend whose parents are willing to do this, or you should find a kennel. Find out how much it costs to board your dog and prepare to save up some money so you can be responsible for your dog's care.
You could keep going "Please, please, please, please..." It is better to say "I love you and you know I'm responsible."

Warnings
You should really read at least one book on the proper care of dogs before you go any further. Dogs are real living creatures who have needs similar to those of children.
There are laws that state that you must pick up the poop from your dog. Decide if you are willing and able to do this
Remember a dog needs to be walked a few times a day, sometimes very early in the morning, and/or late at night. Are you able to do this?

A good collar and a leash. A well-trained dog is a safe dog.
You will need the names and phone numbers of veterinarians and kennels in case the dog needs health care or needs to be boarded.
Patience. It takes a lot of patience to train a puppy. You must never get mad at the dog and hit it.
Money. You will need money for dog food, toys and treats
People to take care of your dog while you are away.

Answer 2

Well I know you may hate to hear this but it does work. It worked for me. First clean your room and keep it cleaned, don't back talk. Do everything she asks without complaints. Help her as much as you can. Do things you should do without being asked. Like brush your teeth make your bed things like that.This will show her that you are becoming very responsible. Then in a couple of weeks after doing this start hinting how nice it would be to have a puppy. Make her a list of the good and the bad so that she knows you are thinking seriously about it. Then write to Santa and ask him for a cute puppy under the tree come Christmas morning. This should help you convience your mom you can handle a puppy.

Answer 3

By proving that you are a very responsible caretaker. In the past have you taken care of a kitten or pup? Have you done the work to feed them and take them out for walks? Or have your parents done it? If you show that you are responsible, you have a better change of convincing your mom and dad that you would take care of the pup, and have a good argument on your side of the coin. But, listen to the reasons why mom and dad don't want a puppy. If no one is home for the pup, or rarely there due to commitments of work, school, or activities, that is a powerful reason NOT to have a puppy. Puppies need time and caring and people around to love them as much as they love their people. It isn't fair to a puppy to be alone all day. Hope everything works out.

Answer 4

Tell her that if you can't the dog, you'll start smoking crack. Really, as a Mother of five I don't appreciate one bit a kid like you trying to be manipulative. If your Mother said no, there must be a reason why. Are you willing to take 100% care of a puppy? Are you going to play dog mommy and potty-train the animal? Can you have a pet where you live? I have had so many pets and I have been their caregiver and NOT the kids. I don't blame your Mom and I hope she doesn't fall for some ruse you've concocted.

Answer 5

The exact same way i got my mom to get me a new kitten. But remember: only use my advice if your willing to be in charge.
You should write a letter. Stae how responsible you are. tell her you feel that you could handle another life, and that you want to prove it. tell her that you know that its a hard job, and your willing to do the work.ask about an allowance so you can learn about budgets and purchasing along the way. reminde her about the wonderfull learning experience. Then do some reserch. Find a dog you like, add picture, facts, an adress of a shelter near you, and print it out with the letter. Also, tell her about saving a life. get a shelter dog and you can save a life! I hope this helps, tell about your to-be-puppy!

Answer 6

If you've never had a pet before then forget it. Wait until you grow up and buy your own.

If you have had a dog before just let her see it and she'll get it. Also, you can prove you're responsible enough to have a puppy by helping her around the house before you get the puppy and don't let her down afterwards by not continuing to be responsible.

Answer 7

tell your mom you really want a puppy and make her a deal. show her how responsible you are in school and at home to prove youre mature enough to have a puppy. make sure ur still responsible when u get the puppy tho. :)

Answer 8

Getting a puppy is like having a baby. So just tell her you'll pay for it and pay for the food and take care of it when it starts howling in the middle of the night and clean up its messes, and pay for the shots and the vet bills and the food every couple of weeks.

Answer 9

New puppy? What happened with old one?

Answer 10

JUST BRING HOME A PUPPY AND ASK YOUR MOM 2 LET YOU KEEP IT FOR A WEEK.
FURTHER TELL HER THAT IF AFTER A WEEK SHE'S UNHAPPY, YOU'LL GET RID OF IT.
THIS IS WHAT I DID AND AFTER COUPLE OF DAYS, MY MOM STARTED TAKING CARE OF MY PET MUCH MORE THAN I DO. SHE STARTED LIKING IT AND GREW SOFT CORNER FOR HIM.
ONCE YOU BRING IT YOUR MOM WILL INITIALLY HAVE NO OTHER OPTION AND LATER WILL START LIKING IT TOO...
