SIL Expects Woman To Walk Her Dog Too When She Takes Her Dog Out, She Refuses

Since big dogs must be muzzled in order to live in her sister-in-apartment law’s complex, the OP has been taking care of her SIL’s dog for the past five years. As he had promised to take the dog in, the OP’s husband assumed responsible for the dog’s full-time care.

The dog had never been trained, and OP tried to teach it the basic minimum, but it was too difficult to train, so OP gave up for the sake of her mental health. OP and her husband fell in love with their puppy when they discovered her on the side of the road a year ago. The couple walked the dog frequently since she was simple to teach. This infuriates OP’s SIL, who asserts that OP ought to walk both dogs simultaneously or sequentially. OP doesn’t have time or wants to take two walks and is unable to manage both dogs at once. For the same reasons that OP’s SIL doesn’t walk her dog when she visits, she is violent and pulls. Then, OP’s SIL claims that OP neglects her dog because she walks it alone and not she. The OP questions whether she is wrong to refuse to walk her SIL’s dog. Read the complete account below:
