[quote=Anonymous]My parents got a dog when they thought they were not getting grandchildren. Now they bring the dog everywhere.(and: surprise! they got grandchildren. One of whom--mine, natch--is not too thrilled with the dog.) No one's allergies are too awful and the dog is not a jerk, but the dog's antics and needs are a constant attention drain on my parents (especially my mom)--I think she kind of uses the dog as an excuse for being distracted and anxious a lot of the time. I wish she didn't. We don't have pets so I have no idea how easy or difficult it would be to board them, and my sister is the same way about her dog, so they're getting reinforcement from the other side for the view that it would be outrageously expensive or even abusive to board the dog. I'm just not a dog person and not going to be. I don't really want the dog in my house. Ugh. Anyway, OP: you have a really good reason, not just for now but for keeps. Don't back down. [/quote]
