Wife won't let me have a dog

It’s sad bc DH and I are huge dog people and we will always have dogs because they are amazing. But, yes they are a ton of work and you need to both be willing to bare the burden.

Just because someone doesn't think the same way as you do about dogs doesn't make it sad.

I LOVE dogs but will not get another when our current one dies, even though he is small, very low maintenance and much loved. It makes travel or even day-long outings much more of a problem and is becoming quite expensive. They do bring a lot of allergens into the house.
