My BF and i have been together 4 years and are in a similar situation....BUT at first he didnt like dogs because he had never had one....can you believe that? no pets? no dog? id die.....but anyway we started dating and he learned to like my two babies...he has horrible horrible allergies and was worried they would aggrivate them, but he hasnt had one flare up with these guys! When i finally move out and we get a place together he "thinks" they wont sleep in the bed with us and will stay in their own designated lil room....psh boy does he have another one coming! haha My point is....try to make him learn to love your lil guys and compromise.....i wouldnt survive if i had to leave my babies at my parents house....good luck!
