Whether you are a parent or not, you must admit that it has to be hard to look into those hopeful little eyes and tell them no. It is a hard thing to do but it has to be done. Many of these small children are excited about the idea of having a dog as they do not recognize the responsibilities that come along with them.
Whether you are a parent or not, you must admit that it has to be hard to look into those hopeful little eyes and tell them no. It is a hard thing to do but it has to be done. Many of these small children are excited about the idea of having a dog as they do not recognize the responsibilities that come along with them. The child does not recognize everything that goes into caring for a puppy. All they can think of is the little fur-ball that they can play with and try to feed their vegetables to. They do not understand that the dog must also be potty trained, cleaned up after, taught to stay and sit and obey other commands. The parent will be the one doing this, not the child. Assuming things would turn out in favor of the puppy, you would indeed care for him. Or he could end up handed off to a shelter or to the side of the road. Prior to taking one in, be sure you are ready. Do not allow a little life to suffer because you gave in to your child's desire at the time. Be sure everybody in the family knows that the dog belongs to everybody. Set out planned roles for each person in your family for the upbringing and care of the dog. If you aren't sure of all the above instruction, then do not give in to your child's sweet little desire.
