[quote=Anonymous]To be 12 again! Hopefully my advice will make sense to some. 12 year olds can't be trusted with a puppy, sorry, learned from my own kids. Wanted the puppy, wanted, wanted.... and then just played with the puppy for the first 2 months and done, just like another toy. Now, that dog is mine and mine to walk, DD never learned how to control a high energy dog since she didn't walk him from early on, nor did DS, but he is older and stronger so he can manage it. DH overseas now so I walk the dog, all the time. Fights about who will walk the dog when I work too late and tell DS to walk him. "Why isn't sister walking" whining even at 17. Sometimes I think I like my dog better than my kids! Just joking, but half serious. Homework gets done on their own, they do clean upon my orders, but for me dog was a losing battle. Wish you better luck with your DS and your puppy! I can't give advice since I clearly didn't do it right.[/quote]
