LOL, good advice! I haven't even brought it up, he would have to agree wholeheartedly, and decide it was HIS idea for me to go along with it. With something like this, I just throw it out and see what the response is, if it's like "oh, cute dog, hope someone adopts it" then I would know he wasn't interested - LOL! But, if I sent the picture and said "oh look at this cute dog" and he seemed interested without me saying anything about us getting it, then I would probably persue it ... I definately don't want an uptight hubby! That is usually how I feel him out to see what he really wants, not what I think he thinks I WANT. We flip each other pictures of cute animals all of the time, so it's not an obvious - he lets get this dog. Shell

Careful Shell, when I brought home a third dog (we had two cats and two chihuahuas and this new one is a Pomeranian-Poodle mix) my husband asked me very seriously if he should pack his bags because there was no longer room for him in the house. The Pom-Poo is still with us a year later but my DH has never really warmed up to him, I know he still resents my getting him. My youngest daughter and her Chihuahua have just moved into a mobile home with two friends (2nd year college) and one cat is moving to my next older daughter's boyfriend's house in July so maybe he'll finally forgive me.

I did fall in love with her picture - she's the right size, gets along with dogs, cats, kids ... never had 3 dogs before though - LOL! My hubby probably would hate the idea though ... hmmmmmm. Shell
