To be really pissed off?!

We went to my MIL house the other day for a cup of tea and to see their new puppy. I was sitting on the sofa and the dog kept on jumping on me, I made it clear I wasn't impressed. They told him off but didn't really bother to much. Then he jumped up again and bit a hole in my brand new tights. The little shit! My MIL saw it happen and told him off, she saw I was annoyed and said " oh where they expensive" to which I said, actually yes!
But then that was it, it wasn't mentioned again. AIBU to be pissed off about this?

Did you just call a puppy a little shit? Do you think rainbows and cuddles are arseholes too? Grin

Welshmaenad · 28/03/2015 22:01

You went to see the puppy but didn't want to be exposed to the puppy?

Were you anticipating it would be caged?

PuggyMum · 28/03/2015 22:02

You went round to 'see the new puppy'....

YABU

"WHERE they expensive"??

I presume you mean "WERE they expensive"?

Feckeggblue · 28/03/2015 22:03

I would be annoyed but it's just one of those things.

I get quite annoyed at the ease by which tights joke actually, it's frustrating

msgrinch · 28/03/2015 22:03

puppy acts like a puppy Shock call the daily mail. perfect your Sad face. Primark do good tights.

Joyfulldeathsquad · 28/03/2015 22:03

My dd2 kneed me in the throat today.

Feckeggblue · 28/03/2015 22:03

Hole, not joke!

MrsFlannel · 28/03/2015 22:04

YANBU. My sister's dog ravaged my DDs expensive new hat. She then offered to pay for it which I accepted.

Later, I was branded a tight fisted cow for accepting the money!

My sil brought a puppy to my house once uninvited. Mega bouncy little thing that rampaged round my living room. Little fucker bit my tit in excitement.

If you go see a puppy on purpose then expect damage imo Grin

Don't go see a puppy

DutchMummy88 · 28/03/2015 22:08

@Whitephantom
Thanks for pointing out my mistake, I know my English is so shit for someone who's just moved here..

I suppose I should have worn a wetsuit or something similar to protect myself. Still sucks though!

Puppies are cuter than tights. Puppies win.

susiedaisy · 28/03/2015 22:11

Yabu op, puppies kittens babies all require messy clothes and getting hands on.

Alisvolatpropiis · 28/03/2015 22:14

It's a pair of tights...why are you making it such a big deal. I'd understand if the puppy had chewed your shoes and your MIL failed to offer to pay for them.

ThroughThickandThin · 28/03/2015 22:15

Puppy side here OP. Sorry of course YABU.

TripTrapTripTrapOverTheBridge · 28/03/2015 22:17

It's a puppy,it happens. Pup could have easily have ripped your rights with claws.

It's a pair of tights,I'm sure you'll get over it,they're practically disposable!

Charlotte3333 · 28/03/2015 22:18

I think when you have a dog you get a little bit immune to them; when you don't have one you're much more aware of their irritating behaviour. I'm not sure your MIL ought to have offered you the money for your tights, but perhaps a little 'sorry' wouldn't have hurt. But if you're going to visit a puppy ever again wear chain mail.

Our dog is an idiot and pees herself when people visit. Sometimes on their shoes. Sometimes not. It's a constant delight.

BabyOnBoob · 28/03/2015 22:20

You should have strangled it with them.

BabyOnBoob · 28/03/2015 22:22

Joke btw

FarFromAnyRoad · 28/03/2015 22:23

You must be devastated. Sympathies.

AnotherGirlsParadise · 28/03/2015 22:23

My mother treated herself to a miniature wirehaired dachshund. He's an utter arsehole. Even so, YABU to wear tights around a puppy/small arsehole.

BabyOnBoob · 28/03/2015 22:32

Op I wasn't taking the piss, I'd be really annoyed.
