Someone has to deal with it, either him or me so whose to say it has to be me. He didn't say I have to chose between him or my dogs just said he would rather not live with dogs. I'm sorry I even asked for advice now.

Don't regret asking for advise. It's just that when you are on a forum where most of us love our dogs like they were our children, you're probably not going to get many responses like you're hoping to hear. Hopefully he'll learn to love your dogs too and will realize having dogs in the house in not a bad thing. Also, please please don't get an "outside" dog. I think it's aweful for a dog to have to live outside, away from its family. Dogs are pack animals and want to be where their "pack" (family) is. Unless you spend hours and hours outside with the dog, it's not going to get the life it deserves. I don't believe in outside animals
