Well the whole story kinda happened to me. DH said no dog at all. Kids asked numerous times, he got upset and said NO! Rehomed the DH... just kidding
. I asked him every few weeks, finally he saw the pictures, asked me if I really wanted a puppy and I said YES! He surprised the kids after school one day and they were so excited for our Bailey to come home! 1 1/2 later... Bailey and him are BFF's for life. Every day, shes the one who is most excited to see, dances for him, listens to him the best, snuggles him... I could go on. He also calls her "puppa" because he says she can't pernounce puppy; what ever that means
. Bailey is wrapped around his little finger so well. I hope all works out for u, but I would wait for a while to get another one. You had to put 2 dogs through enough... wouldn't want to hurt another one
. Especially a
. But, I don't know what is best for you, and I hope you choose the best option right for your family.
