because he wants to get rid of our new dog?
We agreed last week that we were in a financial position to be able to have one, and that i am a SAHM so will have plenty of time to take it for walks with the girls, train it etc..He then phoned our landlady to check it was okay and she said yes.
So 4 days ago we got our dog, an 8 month old staffie/lab cross. She had a few accidents the first day but i pretty much had her housetrained by the third day something her fosterers hadnt achieved in 2 months. She is already really quie obediant, fantastic in the car, good with the kids, very affectionate, i honestly can hardly fault her.
But hubby seems to have been getting more and more uptight with her, and it resulted in a row last night, where i got it from him that in his mind he had pictured himself as the dogs 'master' being lovingly followed everywhere and adored. of course its me at home all day with her, doing her training, so its me that has got this honour. He is jealous quite frankly.
He thinks we should return her, as its not what he expected and also he flung in some reservations about not having so much freedom as we had pre dog (erm perhaps he should have thought of that before saying he wanted one?!) and i think he should grow up, stop being a wanker and appreciate what a lovely dog we do have.
A part of me feels resentful, so the dog adores me, whats wrong with that? our two daughters are TOTAL daddies girls, is it a crime for us to have an animal that might just prefer me?!
