[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are you planning to pay for the 2 weeks boarding?[/quote]

This isn’t necessary. The dog is a responsibility that the ILs took on willingly. They can’t expect to foist the expense and inconvenience on everyone else.[/quote]

They can when OP is expecting free help for 2 weeks. I doubt they find it convenient to decamp for somewhere else without their pet and now with added expense.[/quote]

If you read the OP, you’ll see it’s actually very convenient for the ILs. If they couldn’t stay at OP’s would they have to board the dog?[/quote]

But suddenly not being able to bring the dog might be a deal breaker. And maybe they wouldn't be gone for 2 weeks or more if it was just to be out for some house work and the chance meeting with a friend. OP can ask them and find out. But it's not so easy to find someone to drop everything and race to your house when you go into labor. So, the upside is mostly on OPs side here.[/quote]
