Caring for a human baby is no comparison to a dog. Yes, you can love a pet because they are part of your family but you don't need parenting skills. I call my puppy and cat my fur babies but I would never compare raising a child to having pets. Are you actually serious asking this question?
Not probably...it IS. If you have childrenn then you would know what it cost to birth the baby and all the prenatal visits. Nevermind diapers, formula, pediatrician, keeping up with the lastest fashions and electronics, proms, cars, school tuitions. My dog is happy with an empty water bottle and an ice cube. A bag of food costs me maybe $10 a week or every other week.
I can put a puppy in a cage for 8 hours while I am at work and not be arrested for it...I think that ups the cute factor.
8 hours?? Actually, if you keep the puppy in a crate that long, it could be considered inhumane. I went to a shelter to adopt a puppy and when we told them the puppy would be alone for a maximum of 6 hours, they turned us down.

Woah...watch out for the literal police.
