[quote=Anonymous]You are my husband, my husband is you.  He absolutely did not want to get another dog. The kids and I wanted one. Truthfully, I felt hurt with his change, because when we dated and got married, we had a dog. And he knew that I've always had a dog, and that I love dogs. He changed after we had children. He found dogs too stressful. Anyway my situation might be different because I am the wife and caretaking typically falls on the wife, but I told him that he would not have to do anything at all for the dog, it was all on me and the kids. And I've kept my promise.  That said, because he was the one that did not wanna dog eyes consulted with him about dog breeds and what it is about the dogs he did not like, etc. etc. and his criteria was one no shedding, and he limited it to a poodle, and two dog had to have a very mellow Zen personality. With that criteria, I did a deep dive Breeder search and finally found the correct breeder all the way in Canada. I now have an 11 pound miniature poodle who does have a great personality and guess what. My husband has fallen in love with him. He even has said to me many times, thank you for doing the research because this dog is perfect for our family.  While my dog has a lot of energy and can keep up with me on walks and hikes, he knows how to relax. We just tell him that's enough, and he goes to his dog bed and lays down if he gets too much for us.

TLDR : if you find the breed that works for you and your family, you might fall in love with the dog[/quote]
