My story shows my hubby is a softie though he will not admit it.
In December our only dtr got married. Though they lived with us, to me my baby was grown up (19 yrs old). I had a long talk with hubby that I had a hole in my heart that a small puppy would fill. This is a man who has always hated animals in the house though we have had them all our married life. He told me to research small breeds so I could carry a full grown dog around. I have disabilities which limit my physical activities including carrying heavy stuff.
So I looked at small poodles and we had agreed that was what I was getting. Then we went to the flea market. There was a breedeer there who had 2 beautiful full grown females. Dh sent me and my son in law back to his booth several times with questions. He was having a litter due in another week and hubby said I could get one and dtr and sil decided to get one also.
When we next talked to him he had 1 male pup unspoken for so I told dtr to get it and I would continue looking. The sat before she brought hers home I found Gypsy. We fell in love. I wanted a female anyway and now dh has fallen in love also.
Nothing like a 300 lb man cuddling a 4 lb yorkie. He is not even arguing about the vet bills like I thought he would!

edited to add: before we got her dh had made a list of what payments would go out of our tax refund, and budgeted was a d&^n puppy! I thought it was funny.
