So my DD is nearly 2 well will be 2 in Feb and she's not yet stayed at my mothers.

1st she still smokes in the house which I don't like as I don't smoke never have done etc

2nd she has two dogs a Rottweiler and an akikta

I can handle the smoking maybe for a night but I'm just scared stiff of anything happening to DD whilst she's there obviously I know the dogs they have never been aggressive towards me or any of the family etc they are large dogs I have a dog myself, but I don't know I'm just petrified of DD staying you hear about all these stories etc am I being ridiculous?

Oh no way especially because of the dogs, trust your instincts.

The Akita is a massive worry. Don’t do it.

We had 2 big ddogs when ds was born - still have 5 years later... BUT - they know my dc. They have a relationship - they are supervised. None of these points could be said about her ddogs and your dc.
It's a no from me op.
And my dm smoked 20 odd years ago when she saw my dc. Never smoked around them but they still smelled of smoke. Grim imo. Obviously the danger of second hand smoke can support your no sleep overs regardless of ddog issue.

No fucking way.

Nope. You are not being ridiculous. Also, I think it is unnecessary. Do all children need sleepovers? No.
Do they need them before a certain time? No.

No way.
If your DM was thinking about your child she would realise it's a bad idea. She's thinking about herself. She's not entitled to have your child in her house anyway.

If something happened your DD ... Well... It's not a risk I would take
