I personally think he feels you are stressed. That will only push him away. Give him some time and try to relax. Most boys are mammas boys. It is that way here. Winstin just adores me and follows me everywhere. When my husband comes home he does give him kisses but then it's right back to where is my mom. Now, our black lab is a daddies girl. She had emergency surgery in August. My husband was out of town so I picked her up. When the vet brought her into the room, she did not even show she knew I was there.I called her name and everything. I got her to the car. I was talking to her and even trying to pet her, she would ignore me. Once we pulled in the drive she got all excited and came in looking for her daddy. He was not here but when he arrived she was so happy. I know she is his girl and I am ok with that. I do 99% of feeding taking out potty and cleaning up the messes. She is till his girl. She could care less when I get up in the morning but when he does she becomes very vocal.
Give yourself time to bond with him. It started off on a rough note so just try to relax and enjoy him. Give that bond a chance to happen. If he likes your SO, who cares as long as he gets the love he needs. I would almost bet in no time he will love you as much if you give it a chance. Poor thing has been moved around enough and just needs a chance to settle and see that you love him. Two days is hardly enough time for him to figure out where he is,let alone who he loves. Just love on him, do special things with him. Let him know you do like him and love him.
If you do not like him then he needs a new home. |
