Welcome to YT, and thank you for rescuing.

Because you are home all day with her and hubby is not, she is excited to see him when he comes home and wants to spend time with daddy. 99% the person that feeds and walks the dog is who the dog bonds with, there are 1% that chooses the person that does not do that, I guess you fall into that 1%. I would feel hurt to if my dog chose someone over me.

Aside from feeding, walking, vet and groomer which btw are not happy events for any dog lol, do you play with her, have you trained her basic commands, sit, stay, down, drop I, leave it. Training basic commands build a strong bond between owner and dog.

If you don't know how to train for basic commands, take your pup for a training course, there you will be taught how to train a dog, you take these tools home with you and work with your dog giving her treats when she does what you want plus lots of phrase, clap hands, made a big fuss, show her how happy she has made you. Dogs love to please their humans.

Time and lots of patience is needed, show no frustration if she is not catching on to certain commands. Teach one command at time, when she has that one command down pat then move on to a new command. Training your dog builds a strong bond.
