Me again - I think we all realize that a lot of people are not totally neurotic about dogs and other pets the way we are. Most of us totally spoil our little Yorkies - mine has more clothes than I do - he has enough toys to fill a nursery - I spend more at the grocery store on him and my other pets than I spend on myself, and I want him with me as much as possible. Now -- I know most people are not like this - but a lot are!
It's kind of hard to expect everyone to be like "lucky us." I think it's a "gene." People are either born with it or without it.
So -- if your husband gets to where he can "tolerate" your pets, I would call this "good enough." It may be all he has in him.......as far as caring for pets goes.
**** My brother is a psychologist - and his wife is the worst yet (I won't even go into how she is with her pets -- somewhat totally crazy - even for me.) But my brother could care less. He thinks she's "nuts," but it doesn't bother him. He even laughs about it. So - I would say that he "tolerates" her pets very well, and it works out great for both of them.
Good luck - again - Carol Jean |
