Nearly snapped at sister in law - vent

Don't want to be too outing so details will be vague. Basically I need to vent somewhere.

We are currently staying with my in-laws while some major work happens to our house. We are paying board and husband and I are taking on as much of the household upkeep as MiL is allowing. We have our two kids there as well and are not asking for any childcare support from them.

My sil is also staying temporarily with a puppy she acquired in lockdown. Lovely dog. She is staying because she has no garden in her flat and wanted him to be crate and toilet trained before taking him home.

Oh.my.god! This woman is in her mid 30s and is like a teenager. She never cleans up after herself, doesn't get up with the dog, expects everyone else to look after it, then complains we aren't doing it right, seems to have a major blind spot when it comes to keys, expects everyone to dance to her tune ...

I nearly lost it today after one too many immature actions from her.

How bad would it be if I told her the truth? Everyone else just pussy foots around her

According to DH there was actually a show down between PIL and SiL yesterday while I was out with the kids. They made their displeasure with the dog situation known.

I don't know all the details though and obviously it didn't change her mind.
