How Can I Convince My Husband . . .

[Samson]

Why ask him?

Just get the dog.

If he says anything, say, "what dog, I don't see a dog?" The stare at him until he believes he's going nuts.

Better to ask forgiveness than permission.

There ya go.

 

[Zoom-boing]

Don't torment your husband. Relent. My wife/daughter are nagging me for another dog and there's just no way. I told them either when the dog dies or kid goes off to college or wherever.

I haven't lived in a pet-free household for 30 years.

What would you do if you came home from work one day and there was this dog, all big-eyed and scared just wanting a home? Would you make them take it back?

Tell him it is either another dog or another kid.

Not a chance in hell!!!

Well, now you know how he feels about another dog!

Ooooo, I like this. I'd rather have him on board but . . . . I do like this way of thinking.

Yep that usually works on us weak minded males.

Always.

You guys make me laugh.

I'll get you a dog for sex.

Dogs are waaaaay easier than kids. When the dog is in the middle of doing something she shouldn't I firmly tell her 'NO' and she stops. I then look at the kids and say 'see how that works?'

Always.

No thanks, I'd rather have sex with a man.

Hmmmm, I asked for that one. Let's try this again. I'll get you a new dog if you'll have sex with ME!!! Although, I am an animal.

How could I argue with that LOL.

It did happen several years ago. We lived in the country and folks were dumping pets all the time. I came home to discover we "inherited" another dog. But we're in the city now and I just could not handle it. Nope that's where I put the foot down.

Tell him if you don't get the dog, you'll put him in the dog house.

After all, he's barking up the wrong tree and giving you a ruff time over this.

You are a lucky man. I can't imagine living without them.

. . . that we should get another dog? We (the kids and I) all want another dog but the hubs is nixing it. He says when the cat dies.

There's a 10 year old white German Shepard at the spca that needs a home. I want to go adopt her, hubs would be pissed. Hmmmm, what to do . . . .

This is my whole issue with the concept of 'marriage'.... why do you need his permission? Just go get it and say 'unlucky'.

Food is the key. As he is tasting his favorite food you tell him and by the way honey I found this dog earlier (have dog in the back yard when you do this). Suckup for days and you will be home free with a new pup.

I was speaking of bluffing. Not boffing.
We males are not good at figuring out what cards women are holding.

Speak for yourself, after twenty years I know what my wife wants, bluffing doesn't work.

Up till that post I had you figured for a pretty smart feller

It was funny. I can't rep you at the moment but it was funny..

German Shepards are good for home defense. Use that angle.

Forget keeping the dog, send it to me, that way I can tell my husband it was a gift and I can't take it back....we've been without a cat for over a year and without a dog for a couple of months now. I'm starting to look around but, well, hubby says "no".

I hope we get "THE REST OF THE STORY."
