Your golden retriever boyfriend hates Christmas.

For most of the year, Kit Jackson is a happy, outgoing, cheerful guy. But once the Christmas season starts up, he turns into a total grinch.

There's a reason for it, though: He was born on Christmas Day. And his real name is Christopher. After growing up with birthday parties rolled into holiday parties and one too many "Kris Kringle" jokes, he's not a fan of Christmas or his birthday.

Can you get him into the holiday spirit?

Two scenarios!

Scenario 1: You're going home with Kit for Christmas. He's never told you that he hates the holiday -- or that he was born on Christmas Day. Before he can break the news to you, his family is ambushing him with a surprise birthday party.

Scenario 2: You're fully in the Christmas spirit and trying to get Kit to participate. You've gotten him to go ice skating and to pose for Christmas photos, but can you get him to agree to go to a holiday party with you?
