I want to get a western hog nose snake as my first snake, my dad is iffy on the snake. I have laid out reasons why snakes are good, is there any other ways to convince him? Thank you in advance!
 
Find out first why your dad is "iffy" about it so you know what issues you need to address. If you don't address those specific issues, you will be wasting your time with your defense.

Thank you, he is iffy because he just isn’t a reptile person. Is there any general educational reasons please?
 
Sometimes the most truthful and down to earth response can be the best reason. And that probably is that you really want one and it would really make you happy to have it. :)

Truth be known, there is not any solid winning argument, other than just plain old simple companionship, for anyone to have any sort of pet.

Obviously you are on the young side, so you just need to be certain that you have enough responsibility to FULLY care for your new pet. That might really be your dad's main concern.
