Guy Breaks-up With Partner For Not Liking Dogs

Can a dog person and a non-dog person date each other?

That is such a crucial question to ask yourself if you are a dog lover or a dog owner and you are deciding to date someone. Dogs hold a significant place in the dog owners’ life, they share their happy and sad moments with their dogs. Dogs are everything for them; a family member, a best friend and whatnot. Would you date a person who hates or doesn’t have a liking for dogs? What if your partner asks you to choose one? That’s a tricky question that requires self-analysis or maybe hours-long discussions to know who is more important and what place does a dog hold in your life?

Everyone has different deal breakers, some can not compromise their dogs for their partners and think they can never date someone who dislikes dogs and that is totally fine. If you know you guys are not compatible, it’s better not to pursue that relationship for each other’s good. Ask your partner about all the deal breakers so you do not waste your and the other person’s time. Bring your dog with yourself on the first date or simply ask what the other person thinks about dogs. This is how you can find an amazing partner who loves dogs as much as you do.
