DEAR AMY: 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.DEAR AMY: I met my biological father only two times, both times briefly, when he came to visit me.My mother never told me of him nor talked about him.I wonder often about who I am, about my biological father’s other children, and health information. I’m now 77.
