Welcome New Puppy After the Holidays

Welcome New Puppy After the Holidays
Instead of giving a pet to someone for Christmas, consider instead giving them the ability to get a pet once the timing is perfect for them. Natalia Fedosova

Q: Our daughter, who recently bought her first house, has been talking about getting a puppy. She will be hosting Hanukkah this year, and we'd love to see her face when a cute little puppy sporting a big blue bow springs from the box we give her.

However, we’re nervous about giving her a pet because she may feel obligated to keep it even if she doesn’t want a puppy right now. What’s your advice?
