I'm disappointed because my female yorkie who's 10 months seems to love my husband to no end and I don't even exist when he's in the room. She does love me a lot when we're alone where she'll sit with me, play with me and be affectionate but I think if she had her choice, she'd choose my husband over me any day.
I'm the one who wanted her so much and he swore he never wanted a dog ever and I had to argue for almost a year before he'd agree to have a dog in the house. I feed her, bathe her and groom her and do all the "heavy lifting" when it comes to dog care and I would think I'd be her number one. Tell me, does this have anything to do with her being a female and him a male; because he's the male, does she see him as the alpha dog?
I thought the one who feeds the dog is the "alpha dog".
Oh, BTW, he practically falls all over her, so much for never wanting a dog! He always plays when she wants and loves her just as much. I know I should be that happy he loves her and probably sound like a brat but I'm jealous!:twisted How can I get more lovin' here???

Yeah sometime we get jealous when someone that we prioritized makes us just an options...lol too serious....but that true right...Anyway just give her extra care and bonding time more than you usually do in order her to love you more...IMO...But that doesn't guarantee you...We can't read dogs brain so the only thing we need to do is to understand them in what ever they want too...Don't get jealous, ("...

It's hard, i completely understand.
When i got my oldest pup, i wanted her SOOO bad!!! My boyfriend bought her for my birthday, we picked her out together.
I feed her, train her, walk her, play with her...etc etc... but she wants nothing to do with me. It's always "dad" that she wants.
Dogs pick there humans, we have no control over it-i honestly think ur fighting a loosing battle because as long as the dad is in the house, he will be her human. Not saying she wont love you, but it wont be the same as what she obviously feels for him.
Sorry to be so blunt-i totally understand and it's something i've had to learn to cope with.
