[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't buy into MIL's argument. She doesn't want a second dog at her house, period (along with human guests). But she needs to be honest about the reason rather than pegging it to a safety concern which she thought she could use to shut you down (sort of a shaming technique). Don't take your dog to her house. She does not want it there. But DH needs to make her admit her reasoning because what she's now done is make you guys feel like your somehow bad parents and that's not fair. [/quote] Agree with this. It is DHs issue to work out with her but she picked a terrible way of trying to prevent you from bringing your dog. Telling you your dog is a danger to your child is a recipe for defensiveness, hurt feelings, and anger. She should have just been honest about not wanting both dogs there, which is totally appropriate and reasonable. [/quote]
