[quote=Anonymous]Regardless of OP owning the house, she’s clearly consented to the dog living in this house. Which is her parents’ and sister’s home. They may not own it but it is their home. It is unfair of OP to allow a dog (if she’s acting in a landlord capacity) and then say well, here’s a surprise expense and condition. It sounds like OP owns the house in name only. Which doesn’t give her the right, in my opinion, to micromanage this situation.

I agree that OP is well within her right to not go to the house or stay there as it sounds like her child can’t act properly around dogs (yet). OP’s child is the intervening condition here though. The dog didn’t do anything wrong and didn’t act aggressively. It’s the dog’s home turf (again, assuming OP basically owns the home in name only). As OP, I would not expect special accommodations at the house for her family as one of her family members was the reason for the dog scratch.

I am not a crazy dog person, I just recognize that OP’s child can’t understand how to act around dogs and I don’t expect the world to bow down and accommodate my child in every situation. [/quote]
