In today's Ask Amy column, she hears from a reader who doesn't want another pet and isn't sure how her husband will respond to that stance.
The dog I had for over 10 years recently had to be euthanized.
My husband also loved our dog, but I believed that what he loved most was having a dog — any dog. I had this dog before we got married , and I think I presented myself as a dog person, when actually I was only a “that dog” person. I believe that if I said I didn’t want other dogs, I would be asking him to make a big lifestyle change, and maybe even change who he is as a person.
Children eventually graduate from the household, while your dog’s needs increase with time. A dog’s health and happiness is completely dependent on you until the end. And the end, as you know, can be heartbreaking. If your husband feels very strongly about this, he might want to foster a dog for a few weeks to basically test the waters for both of you.About two years ago, I texted his wife to ask about him. She never replied back.I know nothing about myself other than my place of birth.
