I'm very sorry to hear that your boyfriend doesn't take interest in Coco and Cainan like you do. I feel your pain. I care so much about my pet's needs i.e. making them feel important, playing with them, praising them regularly, and generally letting them know how much I love them. I know all of us here at PT are like that. I would find it very difficult to have a partner that didn't have the same or similar ideals that I have. I'm also a huge stickler on not giving our pets mixed signals. Everything should be constantly loving and always consistent. I sincerely hope your BF gets better with your dogs(and you). You sound like too nice of a person to go through what you're experiencing. Best wishes on seeing improvements soon
