(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Carrie Underwood's husband Mike Fisher is reportedly jealous of his wife's relationship with their dogs.

The country singer and the NHL star, who have been married for two years, are owners of pet pooches Ace and Penny.

Star magazine claims that Carrie is so enamoured with her pets that her husband sometimes feels sidelined.

"With their busy schedules, they go weeks sometimes without seeing each other," a source told the publication.

"But when Carrie calls, she immediately begs him to put the dogs on the phone. Carrie will give Mike about a minute, but she coos with the dogs forever!"

Carrie, 29, is currently preparing for her upcoming tour. While Mike, 32, will stay home in Nashville, her pooches will be joining her on the road.

"He is really bummed," the insider said. "He wants to have a baby with Carrie, but she won't even consider it right now." (C) Cover Media
