I'm going to try to keep this vague so I don't out myself.
This is also not a dog bashing thread. I have an energetic dog myself and also have some experience working with difficult dogs in a kennel environment. I am very much a dog person.
DP's parents are on holiday. I had arranged some holidays from work before they booked this. I offered to stay at their house and keep their dog company.
Dog is getting on and is quite poorly. She's a people dog and pines when she is alone. It's also less stressful than putting her in a kennels as she gets anxious around other dogs.
First couple of days are fine. Dog happy curled up sleeping.
I woke up this morning and could hear howling.
One of DP's relatives has brought their very large, boisterous dog to the house and has gone to work. Dog has also not been trained much and is causing problems now as he is massive.
DP and I go downstairs and little dog is roaming free round the house and big dog is locked in the kitchen scrabbling the door.
DP had to go to work so I'm now left with one large naughty dog and one anxious little dog trying to find somewhere to relax.
So far he's peed round the house, splintered part of the kitchen door, nipped me on the thigh and stomach and jumped all over little dog.
If DP's relative had have asked I would have said yes and been able to prepare myself beforehand.
AIBU to think I should have been asked? Sorry that this was so long. Bonios for those who made it this far!
