Hi NataleeRose. It's unfortunate that you couldn't each have a dog to love in your current home. Sorry to hear that. I know you said you'd love the opportunity to nurture some "fur babies."

Are you able to meet with a psychologist? Even if your hub is not interested in going, you could go for 1:1 therapy. I think support and insight from a professional therapist would be really valuable at this point to help you work through this issue with your husband. As you may already know, PC folks are only providing their personal opinions as opposed to professional advice or diagnosis etc. I think the professional route will be very useful to you at this point. Though hugs and kind regards are always available here Take good care of yourself. Peace to you and your hub
