I wouldn't insist that he love Ellie. He would have to be very kind and compassionate to her. I'd say he would have to love animals in general though, or he is going to get really bored talking to me. lol.

Also, more than loving my pets, I retain control of medical and behavioral issues. None of this, "My husband brough home a shock collar for my Yorkie and I don't want to tell him no". Or, "My husband wants to wait XYZ sickness out. He doesn't think we need to go to the vet/doesn't want to spend the money". Absolutely would never tolerate those types of things.
