DD was 12 when we brought the puppy home. When she was your son's age, we still had my rottie, full grown, who was just like Good Dog Carl with Em. She loved the dog at 2, but wasn't able to understand the concept of care or responsibility.

But if YOU want the dog, that's another matter.

And BSG - that is a hideous story about the kitten. People thinking animals are THINGS.
OMG, I'd forgotten all about Carl. I suppose there's a slew of those books now. It's been years.
