Dad's are the head of the household and what they say goes, right? WRONG! When faced with the ultimate crossroad of parenting, dads will often rebel against the majority rule, clinging to their semblance of control over the household. Well, Dad, we all voted and you've been overruled– we're getting the dog.

Despite how much he'll protest and despite how much he moans about feeding and caring for the dog, once there's a new pupper in the house, dad is always the first one to befriend them. Beyond that, dogs will always choose dad as their best friend before anyone else, as they know they have an audience to persuade to allow them to stay. Soon enough, all dads cave to the allure of the new doggo in the house- it's the natural course of nature. So while they may hem and haw at first, trust that the head of the house will effortlessly become the dog-dad once they see that wagging tail.
