I have always had a love for dogs and was finally able to convince my parents to get me one when I was 7. They only allowed this under the stipulation that I would be completely responsible for the dog which I thought would be great, I mean who doesn't love to cuddle with dogs, feed them, and take them on walks. Unfortunately my 7-year-old self didn't consider the messier parts of owning a dog, such as poop-duty. However, I rose to the challenge and by the time I was 15 I was able to convince my parents that we needed to have a second dog. Since then they refuse any more which is why I have turned to dogs siting to get my fix.
