What are his reasons for not wanting a dog? Does he have valid points? Are you both working long hours, do you have the time for one? Has he ever had a dog in his life..childhood? Im just curious to why he is so against it? My hubby is away for a few months and I just put a deposit down on number 4..I was talking to him via instant messanger and told him and hes was so excited too...I couldnt ever have a non-dog man.
Maybe you two could sit down together and write a pro/con list and see which one is bigger? Does he think hes going to get stuck doing the work with the dog? I dont think I would go behind his back..but also I dont think he should forbid you..your a grown woman not his child. Find out the valid reasons he has and listen to his concerns, maybe if he could see the other side of things he will agree?? Do you know anyone with a yorkie that you could 'babysit' for??
