Semi-short version of the story:
A few years ago, we decided to adopt our first dog. Had it a week, and I was the one walking it and spending all the time with it. But eventually, the constant coddling from my wife turned the dog toward her, and it stopped hanging out with me, even though I was still the one feeding and walking it.

So, a few years later, we get a second dog so I could have a dog for myself. This dog became attached to the other dog more than any human. So, fail again.

We adopt a THIRD dog last year, and it takes to me immediately. It sleeps with me, follows me around the house wherever I go, you name it. It's MY dog. And it's a velcro dog. Awesome. About a month ago, it out of the blue stopped doing all of that. Now it just stays wherever my wife is in the house, sleeps wherever she is, and pretty much ignores me. FFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUU.

But, the second dog has now become MY dog, and stays with me wherever I am, follows me around and sleeps with me. Maybe it's because they're all female dogs, and bitches be crazy.
