 An alternate view
Before Yorkies - I was not a "dog" person. I thought it was disgusting and nasty for a dog to be in the bed. All that hair, all that smell, I would have never allowed that. I have two good friends that slept with their dogs and I would not allow them in the bed when they spent the night with me. Their dogs had to sleep elsewhere. Actually one of them WAS a Yorkie and I have since apologized repeatedly to my friend. When I discovered, by being around a few, that Yorkies really don't shed and don't smell and were so loving, I was gradually won over. We got our first Yorkie in Dec 2010. As soon as I could trust him not to pee on my bed - he was in! He goes to sleep and usually doesn't move til morning. There is nothing I love more than waking up to him wanting his morning back massage and tummy rub. When my dds were little we called this morning time "snugging and loving".
So what I am saying is. . . give the guy a chance to see how different and lovable Yorkies are. He may change his mind if it is presented well with no demands or ultimatums. |
