My husband has a little love hate relationship with my Bunny.. he loves her till she chews up his army leather stuff.

when I was 1st potty training her, he would play with her and love on her!! Well till she peed on the carpet then he got up set.

He "says" he is more of a cat person, but why would he to get me to get a nother one? My husband is a biscuit.. all hard a tuff on the out side and soft on the inside. Thats why I love him

well I'm glad my husband is not the only one with the yorkie attitude! I tell my hubby, she makes me happy and I would think that if she makes me happy that would make you happy!

My boyfriend was very unaccepting when I first got Kelsey. He didn't want me to "waste my money on a dog" and he was just mad at me at the time b/c i didn't really have the money and I got her anyway..But NOW...he calls himself "Daddy" and is forever asking me how she's doing, what she's doing, if she went #1 and #2 when I take her potty it's so funny! So he has changed his ways..thank god!

Well this is my first post....and I have to say that my hubby ADORES Schatzi! He plays with her endlessly, and she usually cuddles up with him at night. A few days ago she dashed across the street when I opened the door, and I caught her right before a truck ran her over. My hubby got teary when I told him we almost lost her.....so anyway, yes, my guy loves his baby

txshopper73 · 03-15-2006, 12:55 PM

Hubby was SOOO mad when I got my first yorkie...then again, I didn't ask his input, just went and got him. Hubby was REALLLLY mad when I got my second yorkie...once again, didn't ask him what he thought of it. Have puppies...a whole new guy. He gets on the floor and plays with them. Now, to ask him, he doesn't like them but I know better when he pets them, talks to them...when he thinks I'm out of the room!

I get the "Why don't you get a real dog" all the time, but I'm so far gone over Yorkies that it doesn't bother me for a second. Besides, the people who tease me can't stop playing with him when I bring him around.

Of course, all you have to do to shut them up is ask them about the size of their big dog's turds and how much fun it is cleaning up their yard.

He gets no respect in obedience classes either, but by the end of the 8 weeks, he's everybody's favorite, including the instructor's.

shelbysmom · 03-15-2006, 01:05 PM

My husband and 2 adult age sons LOVE Shelby. She is the one that gets all the hello and goodbye kisses around here.

My husband is out of town and he called last night to tell me how much he misses Shelby.

Then he added "oh yeah, I miss you too."

Claire · 03-15-2006, 01:12 PM

My x husband was against getting a yorkie, he said that if I got a yorkie then he would get a snake so that it would eat the yorkie (see why I divorced him, he's mean!!) But then one day I came home from work and he had been calling around all day trying to find a yorkie for me and we drove 2 hours away to get Gracie. He fell in love with her at first glance and they were inseparable!!!

mylittletigger · 03-15-2006, 01:39 PM

Ok.... Here's what happened with my boyfriend and I

I wasn't really into yorkies. I thought they were cute and liked all breeds of dog but favored the larger breeds. My boyfriend was very adament about a yorkie, he stated that he had grown up with one and wanted another one since the last was long gone. Well Since I didn't hate yorkies and relationships are all about compromise, I decided to make an exception and begin looking on the internet for them. I came across Nextdaypets and found our little Tigger. We weren't looking at getting a dog for awhile, but just looking at little five week old Tigger melted my heart and when he came home I begged and pleaded and finally won him over. I had to work that day so he said he'd think about it and then called me at work and asked me to pick a number (1 or 2). I asked if it had anything to do with the dog I pointed out and he said, I believe, Yes. He may have said maybe. I then asked if the dog I pointed out was one of the two he was looking at again he said yes. I said one and then he tried to keep it a secret, but when my curiousity comes into play I found out what It is, then a few weeks later Tigger came home. On the website she listed him as not being able to come home for another few weeks, But my boyfriend talked her into letting us get her a week early. He was going to drive to OK meet the breeder and get the dog that day and then have it waiting for me when I got home from work. But I spoiled the surprise, but was eagerly waiting to go home to see our precious.

Needless to say, Tigger has completly won me over. I still love big dogs, but oh my goodness Yorkies are the best. What a total cuddlebunny.
