Its not weird b/c I (most people on this forum) understand you desire to have this connection with your T through the dog. However, the fact that you're asking us this question means there is a part of you that already knows that this is a BAD idea.

If you love dogs and want to get one, find another source. My personal recommendation is to adopt one from the shelter or if you want a pure breed, find another breeder. But forging a dual relationship with your T in this manner is a BAD idea. And as others have said, it would be unethical for your T to say "yes" to this.
