You might be obsessed with beagles and just can't wait to get one of these cuddle monsters
0:06
But it can sometimes be challenging to convince your parents to get a dog. I cannot tell you how
0:13
many emails I get every month from people asking for advice to get their parents on board. So
0:19
I finally decided to make this video on how you can convince your parents to get a beagle
0:25
Step 1. Give them some fun facts about dogs. Before you ask them to get a beagle, let them know the benefits of having a family dog
0:35
Throw some fun facts at them, like how dogs can help guard the house or reduce stress in us
0:41
This will create a positive mindset about dogs in your parents. Step 2. Send them cute beagle videos
0:48
Forward some cute and funny beagle videos in your family WhatsApp group
0:53
Let them understand how adorable and smart beagles are. Step 3. Introduce the idea of getting a family dog
1:01
Now it's time to put forward the idea of getting a family dog
1:06
Tell them how getting a dog will complete your family. Explain to them that having a dog can be fun for the whole family
1:13
Step 4. List down solutions to their concerns. It's not that your parents do not want you to have a dog
1:21
However, they have their own concerns. While you imagine a beagle being your best friend your parents see it as additional work to their busy daily routine So assure them that you will take full responsibility for the dog Tell them you will take your dog outside for walks
1:39
every day. Look after their feeding schedule and train them to be disciplined in the house
1:45
Address all the possible concerns that your parents may have and give them the solution
1:50
Number 5. Make a contract. You can take this a step further and write down all the duties that
1:57
you'll do, like walking the dog, cleaning all the accidents, and feeding it on time
2:03
and sign it and give it to your parents. This will show how serious you are about getting a dog
2:10
Step 6. Give them time to think about it. Don't force them to make a decision. Don't ask them
2:17
over and over every day. This will just annoy them, and they will end up saying no
2:24
Step 7. Be mature. Most probably, they should agree to get a dog. But if they say no
2:32
be mature about it. Be helpful around the house. Be a good child. And occasionally
2:39
ask them again politely when they are in a good mood. Being patient will show them how committed
2:44
you are. Raising a dog comes with a lot of responsibility, and if you can show your parents
2:51
that you can handle responsibilities, I'm sure they will agree to get you a beagle
