"NO pets in the house!": 14 people who now can no longer do without their four-legged friends

There are people who categorically refuse to have pets in the house, considering the environment unsuitable for coexistence, both for the animal and for themselves. "I don't want a dog in the house!" - is a phrase that is often heard from all those who are uncompromising on this position. However, it's these same people who, in the face of a puppy's pleading eyes, melt along with their beliefs. If, before hand, they could not bear the idea of having a dog or a kitten under their feet, now they just can't go anywhere without their four-legged friend following them in their every activity. This is the path of every uncompromising father or mother, who would never have thought they would adopt an animal. See for yourself:
