| UGGh Has anyone ever had a problem with their significant other not wanting another dog?! lol im running into that problem! He thinks that huxtyn (our yorkie) doesnt want another dog. hux loves to be around other dogs he is so playful. i think a little brother would be perrrfect for him! What do yall think? sorry to vent! lol

| Heck, I had a hard enough time talking my DH into getting one Yorkie! It took a lot of persistence, a bribe, and the help of some friends to finally talk him into it...... Now, he loves her so much he calls her his daughter! LOL! Good luck! |

| I think timing is everything.... If I were you, I'd just let it go for now... maybe once you stop wanting one, he'll give in. Sometimes you have to make it "their idea". Good luck.

| I have always worked it this way. It is easier to get forgiveness than permission. |

| I keep saying Rosie needs a sister. And my hubby keeps saying no she don't. I like Lil Sis's idea, just bring it home. Hmmmmm. Lil Sis you are going to get me in trouble. I just keep looking on Petfinder.com. I found one I really wanted but she was gone by the time I contacted them. So, I am still looking.

| Well, my dh thought my baby was ridiculous, but since we have a new baby, he has adopted him as his own! That is his baby! I'd say just get one.... Cuz you never know what will happen! Perhaps your significant other will bond to it just like mine did! Then you get to make fun of them!

| We have 5dogs,our sixth passed away and he was MY baby. My sweet man has told me to get another baby,because I have been so sad. He is the reason that I am on YT,still a mommy in waiting. But soon I hope to find my next littleone. So I'm probably not a good person to give advice on this,but you have my support. Babies should not be only children,even furbabies. |

very true... but getting that forgiveness was tough!!! I think he has given up on me.. I heard of a friend who wants to rehome her yorkie (all I can see in my minds eye is that little baby being crated all day and night) and he didn't yell too much when I said I wanted it. We will see. The first dog was the most difficult .. I slept on the floor next to his crate for almost a month. I honestly didn't think he would notice the dog in the house- that is how much I knew about dogs then (he was a sweet YAPPIE pom)

| Having animals was a prenuptial agreement for me. They are my baggage. The day my hubby says no, is the day HE goes! LOL. Well that may be exaggerating (a tiny bit) but you get the idea.
