I do not know the situation in your house but, my husband wasn't too keen on getting a dog either...it took myself and friends, that are dog lovers too, to convince him...He worked all kinds of hours and I was alone alot of the time (second marriage..I have grown children he hasn't any)well he fell in total love with Sadie! then we got Lillie who is an absolute baby and LOVES her pop! and NOW we have Bentley...His reasoning behind not wanting animals is that it hurts to much when that dreadful day comes...but, I told him...they give us so much happiness while they are here...My husband LOVES our furbutts...He isn't a small man...BIG biker guy...It's hilarious when we take them for walks...people just stare at him..LOL...
I would ask your husband the reason why he is so set on not having a dog...He may fall in love with him/her and he may not....If you make the decision to go ahead and get one without him knowing it could turn into a bad situation....I would sit and talk with him...I wouldn't get one behind his back.
