Show this one to your kids! Kids BEWARE!! This is why you don't want a puppy - YouTube They may change their mind on getting a puppy |
selfish human being...when he is going to be old probably his kids will treat and talk about him the same as he treats his dog, and he will be so surprised about it... |
copy past what Marioana say he is not worth the love of his dog |
Sheez that guy is an A$$$$&^%&*^%&.. I just have to wonder if the person who posted this, is that guy? OP is a 1st time poster and this is what is posted!!!! Again what an A$&$&*$*&^%&* |
This is not even an legitimate argument... I got two shih-tzu puppies when I was around 10 and they are living happy lives with my parents. When you get your child a puppy, you have to take care of it... I was 21 when I got my first dog and I enjoy him more than I could have ever imagined... So if he uses this argument, should people never have kids? They are a LOT of responsibility and you can't go on as many vacations. Some people... |
omg people it is a joke, I love my dog relax. If I didn't love my dog why would he still be as happy and healthy as ever. |
I didnt think it was you and although the guy was a little crude he is young and there is truth to what he is saying. I gave my 26 yr old a cat and she was too much responsibility for him. Young people usually like to go out with friends and stuff and dont want the responsibility of a pet especially an aging pet that is expensive and requires more care |

I could only get halfway through this, it just disgusted me. The only thing I kept thinking is that this guy has commitment issues, since he can't even commit to finishing his tattoos:laugh: |
I can't take him seriously when he has a tatoo of a palm tree on his arm. |

The parents definitely messed up by giving him the puppy and expecting him to spend his early adulthood taking care of the puppy. This video is surely NOT going to get him any girls! :eek: |
I think his intentions are good but his delivery is poor. No parent should get a pupy or any animal for their child unless they really intend to take full responsibility for the pet themselves. Most kids lose interest in a pet after a certain amount of time or as their lives and interests change. It's just wrong to get a pet and then re-home it because the child has lost interest. It happens way too often. They either re-home the pet or it gets tied out back to a dog house. Kids are going to want pets but the parents are the ones that need to be responsible. If they are not willing for the commitment then they need to say no. Pets are not disposable. All animals are going to get old if they are blessed enough to live that long and anyone who gets a pet should be prepared to deal with that. |

I think whoever said that the message is good, but delivery is poor is right. I actually do agree with him a bit. I had horses since the age of 12, and like we're talking my mom built a 22 horse indoor riding arena for me when I was 14, thinking I'd compete and teach forever... yes totally greatful for it, but really when I left for college I didn't want them any more and I owned half the business, I was stuck. I'm 23 years old now and haven't been on a horse in over a year because I was saddled with these pets and now can't stand them. Ok that's an extreme example, but I know exactly what that guy is saying. So realistically parents who expect their kids to take on the pets once they leave... that's just not fair. Now on the flip side, I bought Harley when I was 21. I absolutely love him, but he is a huge responsibility. There is no partying, there is no going on vacation unless we are at a pet friendly location. It's difficult, but the benefits out weigh the difficulties. |
Bottom line, and we all know it, is that when you get your child a puppy ~ you are actually getting yourself a puppy. I don't care how many times they swear they will walk the dog; play with; feed; water, etc. They soon get busy with their own lives and most are in that phase where they are utterly self-absorbed. Puppy needs will not be first on their mind. I tease Matt that he is going to have to take Ringo to college with him :). I think he's a little scared about it ~ because he knows I want to get a Condo and Ringo is definitely NOT a condo or apartment dog. Of course, I won't make him but it's still fun to watch him squirm. |
hmmm.... My kids have had dogs since they were 2. My kids are now 15 and 17. Both of their first dogs died of old age a couple of years ago (rescues). They both have new babies (a one year old and a 7 month old). I have already informed them that when they leave for college (just a year away for my oldest), the babies will stay behind..forever! This is their home. I believe it is unfair to not let a child experience a pet just because it will eventually pass away. But, at the same time, as parents of these children, we have to take full responsibility for the animal..after all, we are the adults! |
