Okay i need help convinceing my mom to let me get
#lovepuppies
Getting a puppy is a big responsibility and sometimes convincing parents can be challenging. From my experience, addressing their concerns clearly helps a lot. For example, your mom worries about the dog's size and shedding. You can research dog breeds that are smaller and known for less shedding to present options that fit her preferences. Also, showing readiness by explaining how you will care for the puppy daily—like feeding, walking, and cleaning—can demonstrate your commitment. You could even prepare a schedule so your mom sees how responsible you plan to be. Since the puppy is free but cannot be kept by the original owner, it's important to clarify the adoption details and ensure that getting the puppy is the best decision for your family. Sharing how much you have already thought about names like Dash, Pex, Derten, or Leo also shows you are serious about making this puppy part of your life. Finally, involving your mom in the selection process might help her feel more comfortable and included. Taking her to meet the puppy or sharing pictures regularly could ease her concerns and build excitement. Patience and respect for her perspective go a long way in these situations.



if you live in a shady area/neighborhood tell her you could train it, protection AND scary dog privilege (I assume so anyway since you said it would be a big dog)
