AIBU to expect a bit of help with the dog?
We have a cocker spaniel who has lots of energy and needs lots of walking. DH injured himself 18 months ago so it’s been up to me to do all the dog walking since then. Even if he’s helped, it’s just been a drive to the park, 10 minutes throwing a ball for her in a morning. I’ve then had to walk her in the evening. I’ve walked her whilst dragging a toddler through winter mud, whilst pregnant and constantly retching, with a debilitating pregnancy related vitamin deficiency that left me exhausted, and now I’m expected to walk her with a baby in tow
Today she covered me and DS in drool whilst shaking, then pulled me so hard that the pram was pulled onto the road. That was the final straw. I asked DH to ask PIL if they’d have her for a week to give me a break (they’re retired and have had her before) but he refused. He also refused to try walking her before work. Apparently, what I should do is set my alarm an hour early and walk the dog before he goes to work at 7, so it avoids the problem of walking her with the baby. If he was walking her, that’s what he’d have to do. The only other solution he offered was to get rid of her
AIBU to expect him to provide / arrange some help for me, just 1 day a week / a week off?
