Why do people get puppies in the first place, if they aren't going to treat them like a member of their family? They are no different than having a child, they depend on us for everything, forever, cause unlike children, they don't ever grow up and move away. Owning a dog is a commitment of love, they love you unconditionally, it means you are responsible for the life of that dog, not just when their cute puppies, it means you have to get up at 6 am, no more sleeping in, it means you might have things damaged or chewed by your new puppy, don't get mad at your puppy, put away things you don't want damaged, puppy proof your home before you bring puppy home, and until you know if they are chewers or not, and what their personalities are you have to supervise your pup. Don't get mad at your puppy when they do stuff, they are just babies, and its the owners responsibility to protect them from harm. You wouldn't leave poisons, cleaners, plants, small toys and objects, or matches etc if you had a small child in your house, and you wouldn't leave that small child unsupervised even for a second, accidents can happen in a blink of an eye, and you have to protect all your babies human and dog, they rely on us, without us they are helpless, so unless you are willing to do all these things, and love and spoil them for the next 10 or more years, then you shouldn't get or buy a dog or animal of any kind.
