Justified in my annoyance?

Bit of background:
DH and I have 2 young DCs (aged 2 & 3), a pampered 6yo house cat, I’m pregnant with DC3 and was diagnosed with a pretty nasty illness this week and am feeling beyond rough.
DH has taken the DCs out for a woodland walk this morning with a friend and their dogs, and has just called me to say he’s on his way home with one of the dogs in tow to be a house guest Hmm Apparently because the female dog is in season and the male dog won’t leave her alone and keeps trying to have his way with her.
Now, I’m annoyed because:
A) my DCs will be excited and riled up the whole time this dog is in the house
B) my cat will now be upset, on edge and stressed in her own home because of this unwelcome guest
C) Dog hair everywhere - it’s a breed known for shedding
D) I think if you don’t want puppies, then you be a responsible dog owner and get either or both dogs spayed/neutered! Not my dog, not my problem!

Would you be annoyed too?!

You are totally NOT U!

I love dogs and cats, but in your situation it is just not practical. It feels a bit like your friend set this up ahead of schedule tbh.

It is not your monkey and you are not the only solution to this issue.
Set aside the fact he could have at least checked in with you before saying yes to the dog!

Direct dh to the hoover when he gets home.
Make a mental note you are a favour owed. By cf and dh!!

Let's hope he hasn't got the girl dog to bring home. Add blood and hormones to the mess and lead walks only so they can be "difficult" at times.

What did they expect if they don’t get their dogs neutered/spayed.

Is this going to happen every time.

Your dh has been the willing patsy to their stupidity

It’s the male dog who has arrived Hmm

Make sure dh does ALL care for the dog. If he works, make him take ddog to work.

What’s the first thing the dog has done?
Come in and tried to jump up on my sofa Hmm
I don’t think so pal! Off you fuck!
