Should There Be A Parent's Argument For Not Getting A Dog?

329 Words1 Page

Everyone at one point in their life has either seen advertisements or argued for a furry, four-legged animal around the Christmas time. A parent’s main argument is usually that it is a lot of responsibility, and that it is a big decision. From a parent’s point of view, it is very costly, can require time to train, and commitment to keep up with a dog’s necessities. Although it is a big decision, a dog would be a great animal to have in a household because they improve mental and physical health, as well as improving a child’s responsibility.
A parent’s argument for not getting a dog is a very valid reason, but the statistics say otherwise. Purina says that, “Children who have a furry friend have fewer days off school due to sickness” (www.purina.co.uk).
