I am really disgusted at husband's attitude toward animals.

Christmas time last year, husb fellin love with a Walmart parking lot free puppy. Turns out, they grow into dogs and require time, money, and attention. Who'd ever have thought?

He refused to get rid of the dog unless I got rid of one of my cats (that I brought into the relationship). The only one that was re-homable was my savannah.

Husb just fell I'm love with another puppy.

Oh hell no.

My DH begged for a dog. Hence, the hound. Not four months later he was talking about rehoming him because 'it wasn't fair to him' and the dog was too much work. I refused. A year and a half later, we adopted a puppy as a companion. Six months later, DH wanted to give her up because she was too difficult. I refused. Those dogs are now 6 and 8, snoozing in the living room and sleeping with me when they can.

DH is a lazy parent. It doesn't matter if it's kids or dogs, when the going gets tough, he gives up.

Don't have children with this man. He will dump everything on you (as I'm sure you already suspected)

I'm really just beside myself right now. Nothing I say will dissuade him once he makes up his mind. We've been going through a rough patch already for over a year now. At this point I feel like he's purposely hammering nails into the coffin.
