I agree that these little fur babies are a terrific alternative to a baby!! I was wanting another baby....and my youngest is almost 18, so we'd really be starting over. However, I got a puppy, and then last week got another! They are the girls I never had!
I don't know your relationship with your hubby, but mine also told me no, twice - lol! But he didn't really mean it, cause he would never tell me I couldn't have or do something
And he is so attached to them, just like I knew he would be, that he would never trade them in at this point!!
I think what convinced me that I could have another, was when I puppy sat for 6 nights....it was fun and hubby became really attached to that puppy
I guess I didn't help any. For me, hubby said no and I just brought one home and knew he'd accept her....
