Husband hates dogs--- including Ours!

[kp&nala]

It sounds like he's just a little jealous. He may not be a dog person but I would bet money that the reason he's acting the way he is, is b/c he's not getting all of your attention anymore.

I dont know about that. If he were trying to get more time with her, then I'd agree with you on that one. But he just doesnt want any time or anything to do with the dog. I'm not a cat person, never was, and I know I never will be. Some people are just the way they are about things, you've got to respect that and move on from it.

I like to look at marriage as a compromise. I would not expect my husband to like or love everything that I do. Nor can I really appreciate some of which he finds passion in. (golf)

However, because a husband and wife love each other and have respect, I feel possibly each spouse can appreciate the affection or passion that the other one has in their life even if it isn't shared.

I hope your husband can see how much you adore Bean Sprout and because of loving you, find this a great quality about you even though he might not personally take interest as much as you do.

Best of wishes with you all.

He'll come around he said he didin't like dogs but he loved and respected that you do! and gave you your right to have a dog! So love him for that and be sure to divide your attention to both and eventually just maybe he (your baby) will accepted. Patience

My husband isn't much of a dog person either. He really doesn't pay much attention to Willy. He agreed to get Willy for me as I really wanted a dog. I love to go for walks & he agreed that I needed a walking partner (he doesn't like to go for walks)& Willy loves going to the park for walks. Willy is my shadow & I enjoy him very much. All my husband does is complain about Willy. But he complains about everything so I write off most of what he says. I tell him all the time what a really good dog Willy is & he tells me he's ok for a dog. He like our cats better because they are more independent. He feels dogs are needy & he simply cant be bothered.

Enjoy your new baby, as long as your hubby isn't abusive to the dog dont let it bother you. Some people just arent dog people. He obviousley loves you enough that he wants you to be happy, and if this baby makes you happy dont push him.

I actually really believe little Bean Sprout will grow on him -

My mother has a picture of a little dog holding a sign that says "husband for sale. .25 cents...i love it.....

I have to agree. Try to give hubby more attention. I have to say if he's not a dog person to begin with then a not-well-behaved dog would be especially hard for him to adjust to. Try working on Bean Sprout's training, and between that and how adorable he is he just might grow on hubby! Good luck
