My mom won't let me get a dog we had 3 dogs before 1 died of parvo.. 1 ran away(it came off of its leash) and 1 we gave away
I would never feed my dog i was like 8 or 9 then but I really would take care of this dog I want it so bad how could I get my mom to let me have a dog don't tell me it'll make me responible cause i already tried it
If a year or more has passed, I would agree with some of the other answers here. Prove to your mother that you have a strong resolve. Do your chorse before they are asked. Do research online about puppy / dog health and print off the pages and put them in a notebook. Be creative, things like this will calm your mothers worry.
And please DO NOT sneak the dog into your home, and hide it in your room. It would be impossible to hide for more than a few hours, and then will put the puppy (and you) in a very awkward situation.

Show your Mom you are responsible in other ways like helping around the house, getting good grades etc. Once you have accomplished the responsibility part then ask again.

hope i helped!!

Clean your room, do some extra chores without being asked, stuff like that. I know this might sound lame, but try buying a plant and take care of it (watering it ect.) or buying a goldfish. When your mom sees how responsible you are, maybe she'll cave and let you get a dog. Hope this helps and good luck.
