[quote=Anonymous]It's up to your MIL whether having the dogs in the house is okay. It's up to your BIL whether having the dogs in the bed is okay.

It's up to you if the dogs licking, and humping you & the baby are okay. If you're not okay with it, you can kindly request that some doggie gates go up while the baby is visiting. If you don't get a friendly reply, then offer to meet up with the ILs at other locations but put a hold on spending time at the ILs house until the dogs are out of the house.

I get it, OP. I do. My entire side of the family loves animals and has as many pets as there are people in the house. I'm not a dog, or a pet, person. My parents' dog, who is generally sweet, scratched my daughter in the face. Doggie gates are up when we visit. The dog is accompanied by one of my parents or siblings at all times. I carry my daughter the first 20 minutes when the dogs are allowed into common areas - making sure everyone has settled down before the dogs can even come up to sniff her. If my parents weren't accommodating of my requests, we'd stay at a hotel. [/quote]
