If he is not gonna deal with the dog and its problems, then the baby deserves to be in a home where he is cared for by all of the members of the household.
I AM NOT CRITICIZING YOU OR ANY MEMBER OF YOUR FAMILY! I have given this advice on many occasions. Sometimes the timing is wrong, the finances, the schooling, the job, the location -all sorts of things can spring up that you had no way of knowing about.
Do not beat yourself up! If need be, interview people and place him in a home that deals with the issues that are causing you to have to re-home him. Then, move on and work out what your and hubby's issues are and the next time you both will be ready and happy for a puppy.
Good Luck in resolving this situation..If you need to chat, please PM me....

Very well said
