I still remember when I was little, I keep bugging my dad to buy me a dog. My dad automatically rejects my request and keeps saying no. My wish was finally granted, thanks to my mom! A few weeks later my dad and my dog were much closer to each other than I do.

Having a pet is no easy task, dads surely do not want to add another responsibility because they are busy with their job and taking care of the family. This reason is enough for us to understand that dads are the number one person in the family who will decline the request of having a pet at home.

Dads need a lot of convincing to do before they can finally say yes, little do we know that deep inside lies a fur parent blood within him.
