Teenager's master plan for dad to let her get puppy goes viral

'Princess Clara' as her Twitter name goes, has dedicated herself to reaching the mythical figure.

Huston: A teenager from Huston, Texas went all the way to convince her father to let her get a puppy. Clara Foster took her appeal for a puppy all the way to the social networking site Twitter following a bet with her father.

One of Clara’s cousin’s bitch had a litter from which Clara desperately wanted one of the puppies, who she calls Olly, but her father refused to budge from his decision.

It was then that Cara came up with the master plan of using Twitter to her advantage. One fine day she texted her father, "How many retweets do I need for you to say yes to the puppy?"

When his response was one million, she was undeterred, and asked: "Let's be realistic - 100,000?"

He agreed, but that's still setting a high bar for someone who started the project with just 800 Twitter followers.

So 'Princess Clara' as her Twitter name goes, has dedicated herself to reaching the mythical figure.

As of March 16, 13 days into her quest, she had secured 49,000 retweets of her message: "I would really appreciate some retweets".
