She lets you bring a whole big German Shepherd to her house and you can't handle a little dachshund in your house? Not even in the spirit of reciprocation?

I'd be really unhappy about this and it would change my opinion of you and our relationship forever, knowing now that you're such a self centered person.

Well then you are a complete moron who shouldn’t be trusted with a puppy. The situation proposed by MIL which you would feel entitled to as well is extremely unsafe and behaviorally inappropriate for the puppy.

This isn’t about giving a boomer her tit for tat or your entitlement . It’s about safety for the little puppy. [/quote]

No sorry, if you've been bringing your dog to my house for years, I'm going to assume you will return the favor.

How many dogs have you had? You seem completely uneducated about puppies.

Even if OP were willing to do this, it’s not appropriate for a young puppy. It’s going to end up trampled by a kid or other animal, or escaping the house when a kid accidentally lets it outside. Also, a crate is a safe, calming place for a puppy. A gathering of 23 people with no supervision is a recipe for a disaster for this dog and anyone who would insist on putting their puppy in this situation because they feel “owed” the right to do so is a crap dog owner full stop.

I've owned several dogs. So has OP's mil. Which is why I would trust mil will know how to handle and protect her dog. Op doesn't even want the dog out of the crate in the privacy of MIL's room, so it's clearly not about the safety of the dog, right?  And why do you assume mil will let her tiny puppy roam around without supervision?

If I let op bring her German Shepherd to my house it's because I assume she is responsible enough to care for the dog in our home. I'd be offended if I didn't receive the same respect and trust from op. [/quote]
