LOL thank you for your encouragement! Bucky is beautiful and large!!!! I love him and I have not met him in the least!
Luckily boyfriend really is looking after our best interests in this case, while I would get a Newfoundlander if I had the chance we do live in a fairly large apartment space which, while large is still an apartment. He capped us at 90lbs so those giant breeds of my heart will have to wait for more room. My doggo who is three months now will probably be between 70-90lbs based on his growth so far so I’m satisfied. Luckily my uncle at a farm has a big dopey Bernese so I can get my giant doggo fix just by visiting!!
On a serious note I appreciate your concern and advice! It’s such a red flag to hear about women’s boyfriends trying to control their dog choices and in a lot of instances is a sign of abuse and manipulation. I’m extremely lucky with my guy, and we’ve been together for twelve years strong, and are each other’s very best friends. He just has a little anxiety about picturing me dragged five miles on the end of a leash by an excited horse dog. While we both know that would never happen, I am not without the ability to compromise to save his heart.
