    I would say that if you always had your dog the jack a-- has no right to tell you anything.

    Does not sound like he has a loving personality. If he can not love an animal, How the hell is he going to be able to show love to you or others.

    I have never had a boyfriend, so its hard to say in your case. But I had that same thing said to me from my wife. So being the big tuff guy that I am I cryed and called my mum. I had to tell her how successful my relationship is. She said listin up you sissy, remember the time we drove back from Brissy and stopped for fuel. You saw a dead magpie and brought um back to the car and said mum pop the boot I need me book bag. The boot opens, I get out my glue to put the dead magpies leg and wing back on. ( I was 6years old) She said being that type of person is bloody mad and waist of glue, but boy there is something about you and animals. I knew way back then you would always care for them and too bad you married a woman and not a Bit***. You were always better with dogs. So I have been single ever since. I am a good Vet, just ask me. I am no person to help you with relationships. So get rid of him the dog probably kisses better anyway. When he leaves make sure to remind him you are a one dog home anyway. Lol

    The dog loves you more and is a better conversationalist. It's a no-brainer.

    I agree with everyone here, and of course want to add my 2 cents. I think your boyfriend is jealous 'cause the dog can lick his own butt.

    Oh, and someone that truly cares about you would never ask you to rid yourself of the things that make you happy.

    No, Jessy I couldn't get rid of my dog. The guy would get kicked to the curb the moment he started complaining about my dog. If he can't accept all the aspects of my lifestyle, he ain't worth my time. Men may come and go, but a dog will always love you for you and doesn't try to pick an argument over stupid crap or play head games with you. A dog is happy with whatever food you serve, and doesn't have to be asked to cuddle with you. Without a dog, who do you blame the silent but deadly smelling farts on when you have company over for dinner?

    I don't know how long you have been seeing this man, but, if you had the dog prior to the relationship with the guy, for him to ask you to get rid of the dog is very controlling behavior. What else will he expect from you down the road?

    Keep the dog, send the boyfriend to the curb. A good dog is very hard to find.

    Nobody has discussed making and keeping commitments. Getting a dog is a 10-20 year commitment. Getting a boyfriend can be a far longer commitment. There is untold misery in this world due to people that don't keep their commitments. If he doesn't see your commitment to the dog, what sort of commitment will he have for you?

    It may be too soon for you to be looking at 50-70 year commitments to a boy friend. I know they are much less common these days, but I think life was much better when it was the norm. Keep the dog until it dies. Look for a boy friend that you can do the same with.

    Dr. Kevorkian is out. Maybe we can show the same mercy to people again, that we do to dogs.

    Note, watch yourself, Ordinary guy, I got a reddie here for suggesting spaying a dog was a no brainer.

    Don't let him tell you what to do. Tell him he better get moving because the dog stays and there's no room for 2 dogs in your house. If you do this he will run your life for the rest of the time your with him

    My sister had a Chihuahua, When she got married, It use to sleep with her and everything.
    He told her flat out, to get rid of the damn Dog or he would leave, Well she cried and Cried,
    (If someone truly loves you, for you, then he should love everything about you (past & present) after all, it is the accumulation of all these things that has made you the person you are, The Dog was a part of you when he married you.
    However I will warn you of trying to keep a Loved Dog and a Dog hater together.
    It didn't turn out well with my sister.
    He husband threw this tiny chihuahua out in the barn to fend for itself. A few days after being moved to the Barn the Dog was found by my sister Deathly ill,
    He husband refused her access to the vehicles to take it to the vets,
    She called my mum, Who came got her & the Dog. (Much to her husbands disapproval)
    The vet upon seeing the Dog, Stated flat out, that hands had to do to this dog, what had been done, A hugh spike was driven through the roof of it's throat up through the head. (he "her husband" figured she'd never see what he did and just find the dog dead. Anyway, to put a long story short, his undying love for my sister ended in yrs of terror and torment, Having been shot at in the mix as well.

    DON'T marry anyone who doesn't respect your desires, joys, wants and needs,
    He's selfish, controlling and not worth the time of day. (he ain't worth the risk).
    Your dog will always love you no matter what,
    There is many Dog/animal lovers out there, Find one worthy and put this trush where he belongs, The GARBAGE!

    Yes, but if you leave the lid up, the dog will drink out of it. I am having trouble training my wife to put the lid down.
