Bringing a new family pet home isn't always an easy decision, especially when someone in the household isn't on board - we're looking at you, Dad. These cute puppies, however, managed to win over their reluctant masters in no time.
Most people who claim not to like these adorable animals will tell you a million reasons why, but sometimes they just need the right family dog to come along, and that's precisely what happened to the Dads you see here. Whether they disagreed with a particular breed or size, or just insisted on not having pets altogether, they each found themselves in love with their unlikely furry companions eventually.
Follow these tail-wagging triumphs of cute dogs below, and share this story with anyone who might need a little 'convincing.' Oh, and the joke's on you, Dad!

My Dad is a hard man. A labourer all his life, hard work and tough as boots. But my 3yr old Black Lab has him wrapped around his little dew claw and each time he visits, the cuddles and pats are getting longer... :) Big love for them both.....
Stijn Vlasselaer 7 years ago
Maybe they don't want them because they know they'll love them almost as much as a kid but eventually have to see them grow old and die.

True. Love and loss is hard, really hard. Especially when the pure love a dog gives is unconditional x
