My name is iana and I'm 11, me and my mom and sister really want this cute puppy he is a Lhasapoo we REALLY WANT HIM! But my dad keeps saying no I tried telling him I would walk him and crap but he keeps saying no! BUT THE WORST PART IS THAT THE DOG WILL GET SENT BACK TO THE BREEDER AND THE DOG WILL GET KILLED! PLEASE
ANSWER ASAP SO I CAN SAVE
HIS LIFE!
You need to show him you're responsible enough to look after one. Usually parents start with a pet that needs less attention. Goldfish, then rodent, then something a bit more time consuming.
But if your dad simply doesn't want one, I'm afraid that's how it is. I wasn't allowed pets in my home growing up.

Why is the breeder going to "kill" the dog?
Tell your dad that you would like to save the dogs life and also tell him that you will help care for him/her.one more point is that its lovley to have dogs but when you get older you might not be there as much and dogs do get lonely as well. If you do want a dog you should sponsor one first and see if you really want one.

People adopting animals are well aware the dog has been "adopted" once and brought back.
It's not fair and it can destroy totally "good" dogs.
I think this is irresponsible advice. Dogs are not toys you return when they break or you get sick of them.
I agree 100% with Judy...
