I just got a new puppy. My parents told me I could get one, but they also told me that I had to take responsibility for it. I had to take it outside to go to the bathroom, and I had to clean up any messes that it made inside the house. I had to feed it and give it water. They didn’t think I could do it, but I showed them that I could be a responsible pet owner. I learned about crate training puppies on the internet. I bought a crate with the babysitting money that I had earned. I began using the crate as soon as I brought the puppy home. He is house trained, and he doesn’t chew up shoes or slippers while I am at school. My parents are very proud of me, and I am very proud of my puppy.
