kittensmittens Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 Anyone have any advice? And what do you girls think of a guy that has a small dog? Honestly, my exbf loved small animals, including small dogs, and I thought this was one of the absloute most attractive things EVER. We would both react the same when we saw some adorable little dog being walked or riding in a car or something. My impression of a guy with a small dog (or especially a cat) would be that he's sensitive. He's not obnoxiously macho and he's not hung up on appearances. He'll be the type to tell a girl that he loves her openly (or any other gesture of affection) without caring about judgement from other guys. Not saying that a guy with a big dog insn't capable of these things as well, just that I think it's really endearing and attractive when a guy doesn't feel the need to conform to every standard of masculinity that society expects out of him. That, to me seems, shallow. Jmho.
Fun2BMe Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 Your thread caught my attention since recently I was in the opposite predicament where some of my new neighbors who I had befriended were pressuring me to get a dog. First they wanted me to get a big one and after I kept making excuses they switched it to a small dog thinking thatwould get me to say yes. I finally flat out said no adamently instead of giving in. If you want a small dog, then get one. Your friends may or may not grow to like it but at the end of the day it will be you and the dog in the home, not your friends. Also, I think the dog will do more to help you feel better about your ex and what you have gone through, than any joking grief your friends will give you here and there. In fact they'll have more good times with the dog than sitting around giving you a hard time about it.
