When I first met my husband Mitzi was already 4 years old and never took to another person but him. Even his ex-girlfriend for 2 years never had a chance with her. It took about half a year until Mitzi warmed up to me but still daddie is number 1 in her life (6 years later.) If I would be a jealous person it would drive me nuts b/c I love her with all my heart. She is just "daddies little girl" and I accept and respect that. Maybe it would make sense for you to learn about the breed and just give it time... a lot of time... and maybe a second dog just for you. You can't force a dog (or anybody to love you) but you still can love "it" and respect and accept "it's" preferences. Love is to feel good about what you give and not about what you get in return. |
