    By earning it. You have to prove you are responsible and that it's worth their money for them to spend on a living creature that you will have to take care of.

    If you've already tried all of that, and they aren't willing to buy you a dog, then you're unfortunately going to have to wait. They must have their reasons to not get you the dog.

    Good luck!!! Someday, you can get that dog.

      Yes like the other person answered.  You have to show you are responsible enough.  If you have some money saved you might want to offer to give it to your parents to help with the cost.  It is not just the cost of the puppy but the vet appointments and food cost quite a bit afterwords.  Also I would read as much info about the breed of dog you want and how to go about training them so when you talk to your parent you sound knowledgeable.  You could also just ask your parents out right what do I have to do so they would consider getting a dog.

        You have to show you are responsible, are willing to get a job to help pay, as dogs are expensive, shots, food, etc. And as well, a willingness to walk and care for. These are not easy. And if your parents minds are made up, there is nothing you can do. They may have many practical reasons why you should not have one, and maybe wait until you are on your own. Having a dog is like having a baby and this is a LOT of responsibility

        Annoy them. A lot. Write a journal full of reasons to get a dog, facts that make dogs sound great, and put pictures in. I have been asking for 2 1/2 years. I'm not done with my journal yet. Wish for it every night. Sleep with your parents for 1 night. When everyone's done brushing their teeth and stuff, go into the bedroom about the same time. When they're in bed, tell them that you can't go to sleep yet because you wish for a dog every night. That might do it.

        Dog stories. True ones that feature all sorts of dogs, big and small. It worked for me.
