Hi everyone, Me and my sisters dad made a bet. The bet is about if I can talk my mom ( Who is not a dog person ) into letting him get me my dream dog aka a Golden Retriever. Btw I forgot to mention hes getting it for me if I do talk her into it for my birthday, which is in 2 weeks and 4 days so I only have that much longer TO talk her into it. So far I have written 6 paragraphs to her on how I would take care of it, 3 paragraphs on why its a good dog and another 3 paragraphs on why I should get it. When it was morning yesterday I asked her " On a scale 0 - 10 whats my chance on getting it? " She said " 0 " then in the middle of the day I asked again..she said " 1/10 " so last night I asked her one more time and she said " 1 and a half/10 " So I am making progress. Does anyone else know of any ideas on how I can talk her into it? Btw I'm gonna name it Bentley and it will be a boy if I do get it, it will also be a puppie when I 1st get it!
