Look KID be satisfied with what you have! You are TOO young to be making demands or having any Puppies because YOU obviously do NOT work, you are going to school so you cant 100% be responsible for these dogs and I bet you don't have ANY idea of what problems certain breeds have and that you are TOO little to care for a rotti which can literally pull you miles away within secs cuz that is how strong they are and are NOT dogs recommended for kids to own on thier own. You're parents obviousy don't want another dog, you should be GLAD they let you have one and until YOUR the one paying bills and living under your own roof LISTEN to your parents you spoiled BRAT! I'm in college and even I didn't make such demands on my parents. Learn some adult respect!

i agree with what people have said.
But i am 13 years old and i have a staffordshire bull terrier, she is five and is called dolly. she is really good with dogs. so i asked my parents if i could have another Dog my mum said yes but my dad said no. i want a chihuahua, i am not spoilt, as i have 10 a week and have saved 120 so far, for my dog. i have read on many sites that they only need a small amount of exersise. i have time to walk him/her before school and after scool, and play with toys. i think i am responible as i walk my Dog and i walk my neighbours Dog 3 days a week 2 times a day. my mum only works 3 days, tuesday, thursday & friday , so she said she would walk him/her with dolly those days, and then i will walk with her with the 2 dogs after scool. i did ASK my parents for MY dog.

does anyone have any ideas on how to persuade my dad?

any ideas appreciated.

that sounds pretty good so far but how about vet bills,food,boarding if you have to,have you read up on a chihaua and if they get along with the Dog you have now?maybe by doing all of this it will help convince mom/dad even more.but by all means read up on the two dogs and make sure they could be compatible.even at that personalities will still sometimes clash and they will not get along.but plse do not come home with the other Dog until both parents say ok.good luck

Quote DoggyPassion: Well if the OP's parents allowed the first one with kicking and screaming, s/he will probably do the same thing, and get their way again.

100%

A kid doesn't become spoiled rotten without crappy parents. These problems ultimately come right back to the parents. If they would stick to their guns to begin with this would have never happened. A word they need to learn is NO. If the op had learned that her parents will say no and learned respect for them before, this would have never happened. If I were the parent, I would have taken the puppy back. Raising a kid up right is more important. If the person that sold it to her was any good they would take it back. I am 22 and sick of other parents that don't raise their kids. I have a 2 year old (done the right way) that knows if she doesn't ask first she doesn't get it. Not even a piece of candy. She knows that if mommy or daddy says no, that is okay. If she throws a fit, she is in trouble. I doubt this kid ever really experienced the word NO. Crappy parents infuriate me.

i don't think it's a matter of being "crappy" parents.just that they can't say no.unfortunately it will be the puppy/Puppies that suffer.

rotweilers are certainly not a childs dog...they do require a responsible person..i certainly am not downing the breed as i have great respect for them, however, they are a breed of whom needs a mature handler and care taker..they are one of the breeds on the list to be looked at when speaking about homeowners insurance...i dont feel like getting into the parent bashing, child bashing subject..but..this child in her own suttle little way is dumb..but ahhh...not so dumb..she definately rattled our chains and we allowed this to happen...had this question not been addressed.. by anyone... she would have went away...quietly....dang!! look at me.....she got me too!!!

Quote maoseger1010: I agree,

I agree as well. You shouldn't have even brought home that other Dog in the first place. That was very wrong of you and I wouldn't let you get another Dog either.
