My boyfriend and I were together for 3 years before we got our first dog, Belle. He has allergies too, and didn't want a dog as well. But, I kept persuading him that I wanted a dog, and he eventually caved in. He was distant towards her at first, but he has learned to love her (those puppy kisses works wonders
) We've been together for 5 years now, and recently got Ariel. He spoils them rotten! He has been truly converted to a dog lover
I say give your boyfriend some time ~ a lot can change from now till marriage. If your boyfriend truly loves you, he'll see that those dogs make you HAPPY, and that it's not fair of him to ask you to give up something that you love.
