[quote=Anonymous]I didn't originally want a dog, but my husband really wanted to realize a childhood dream so I agreed. He was a great dog and I really loved him. Took care of him to his dying day. But I was constantly at odds with DH as to how attentive he was to "his" dog. I vowed never to own another animal with him, and have stuck with it even though he applied a lot of pressure during the pandemic (we have kids and he wanted them to experience a pet.) Just because people want a dog doesn't make them a good dog owner. Usually the person who has reservations is the one stuck with caring for the dog as they are more introspective as to what a dog needs. If you can't see your DH caring for the dog entirely by himself, then do your mental health a favor and say "no." By the way I love dogs now. They are great animals; I just don't want to be responsible for one anymore.[/quote]
