I don't know what to do. I'm hopeless. There is this puppy i'm attached to. It's up for adoption.
I'm more attached to her than my other dogs.
My mom and me want to keep her, but my dad doesn't seem like he wants to.
My brother likes her, and my other brother doesnt. But my 3 sisters like her. We all want her except 2 people.
Well, here is my point: If I don't have that puppy, I will have NO reason to live. I don't know what to do.

Please keep in mind that pets are already expensive. And I'm not sure how many you already have but adding another is going to mean more money.
You have to keep the dog on monthly flea and heartworm prevention, regular vet visits, puppy vaccines (Distemper/Parvo is a series of 4 vaccines 3 weeks apart from each vaccine plus rabies, bordetella, etc). And have to have funds readily available for emergencies.
Not including the daily care of the puppy is a lot. I know puppies are all cute and everything... trust me, I know... but you have to be realistic at the same time. Good luck! ]
i went through the same exact thing. i wanted a dog for sooo long. my dad was the only one who was keeping me from getting one. i finally won him over after persuading him and doing things to prove i deserve the dog by doing chores and helping out around the house. if your dad sees you have motivation and that your are NOT giving up he might see how hard you're working and feel you deserve the puppy. i thought my dad would never give in but one day...my hard work paid off! if you have your mom on board, maybe she could talk to your dad and it will help. DONT GIVE UP!
good luck:)
p.s. make an aggreement that you will take care of the puppy. ]
