DH got a dog when he lived with his parents before we got together. When he moved out, first with friends, then with me, the fog stayed at his parents but he diligently continued to go back there once a day to walk it. Fast forward 8 years and this ridiculous arrangement still continues.
Now to the AIBU bit...
when FiL and MiL go away the dog often stays with us. However twice in the last couple of years he's had fleas so bad they've stayed in the Capet after he's gone and I've had to pay for an exterminator to get rid of them. On another occasion I bought flea treatment and treated him myself because I couldn't bear to see him scratching.
MiL came over to our new house yesterday and bought the dog who scratched a lot while he was here. Now I have bites on my feet and I'm worried the house has fleas again!
MiL struggles to treat him because he's a big dog with a thick coat and she's frail, FiL isn't really interested at all in the dog and DH sees his responsibilities as ending firmly with the walks.
AIBU to think that for the sake of the dog and my sanity , one of them should bloody step up and get him regularly treated???
