This is also a good place to put a PSA that no one wants you to bring your dog over to their house. No, he is not “the goodest boy.”


BIL drove in from out of state today. He showed up at our house to drop off his dog and then went to his hotel.

No request, no call, no heads up on even bringing the dog, much less it staying with us. BIL just did not want to pay to board the dog and decided he didn’t want it to stay in the hotel with him, so he made it our problem.

Wife is pissed. I’m pretty floored.

Why didn’t you tell him no?

So you gave your BIL your nuts at the door? Did you offer a reach around?

“No” is a complete answer.

I would tell my BIL that his dog was welcome to stay on my front porch with no collar or fence to contain him. If he is there when my BIL gets back - good. If he is not there when my BIL gets back - good.

I don’t care either way.

One of the things my military father taught me is to “calmly mean what you say” and don’t make any threats. Just explain what your actions will be.

It’s not a discussion. It’s a simple statement.

If my BIL started making comments past that, I walk away.
