Get them to do walkies, most dogs’ favourite activity is going for a walk. If your partner hardly ever walks your dog, but you do, then it’s only natural your dog will favour you. Your other half could try and take your pet out more often, or at least join you on walks. Your other half could feed your dog, one of your dog’s other favourite things to do is eat, naturally, they will look up to the person that delivers them their dinners. Get your partner involved with preparing the meal as well as handing it over to your pet. Get your other half to play with your dog, playing frisbee on the beach, ball in the park or tug of war in the garden are all excellent ways to play with your dog. He will start to see your other half as good fun and look to them for more interaction. Simply being affectionate to a dog will help, try stroking them, fussing them and praising them.

To get your dog to like your partner more, it's a good idea to tailor your new dating itinerary to maintain the schedule your dog is used to, gradually working up to extended away periods if needed. For example, skittish dogs that don’t typically enjoy visitors, will require a slow and steady introduction plan that might even take weeks to months before they are comfortable with one another. Other happy go lucky pooches will bond to anyone that has a pulse. If your pooch is treat responsive and loves special treats or toys, this is a great tactic for bonding your boyfriend and pup. A can of special treats close to the door, or even in the most cooperative boyfriend’s car, is a great idea. Each time your new love interest comes to visit, Fido gets a special treat and presto, boyfriend visits are now a super exciting event. Incorporate your dog as an integral part of date night, taking Fido and your new man to the lake for a picnic, going for a hike together and even brief games of Frisbee are great ways to interact with these two. While time together is great, there’s nothing like one on one time for your boyfriend and pooch to truly bond, so the next time a girls’ night out presents itself, take the opportunity to leave and have your guy come over to keep your pup company.

To get your dog to like your partner more, win the dog over with the three A’s: affection, attention, and positive associations. Create special moments through things like playtime, massages, and treats. Look for ways to participate or engage by examining your own attributes honestly. If one person spends more time at home with the dog, naturally the dog will want to see and spend time with the other partner, too. When the absent partner rewards that behavior by handing out treats upon return, reinforcement and hardwiring occurs. The fragrance of fond friendliness usually does the trick. Sometimes, they make you feel like they’re punishing you for your influence over their lives, by preferring someone else. As with children, don’t let this little game bother you. Be grateful that you found a dog that meshes so well with at least one of you.
