I would say that if your husband can demand you get "rid of" a dog after 2 months, that speaks volumes of his feelings (rather, lack therof) towards animals. How can anyone so easily give up an animal after it has been in the family for 2 months, let alone one that was already rehomed??? What happens if/when you get one of these darling little pups with his blessing, and then there are potty training accidents and vet bills (which WILL happen)? Will he then demand you "get rid of" another puppy? As much as it sounds like you really want a pup, I don't think it would be the best environment if everyone isn't completely on board.

These babies are not returnable or disposable, they are a part of the family and deserve to be regarded as such.
