It can be challenging to deal with your phobia of dogs at times, especially in today’s society when they are more prevalent than ever and it seems like every home has one of these furry pals. There are several reasons why people are terrified of dogs, and most often, these are people who have previously had negative interactions with dogs, such as being attacked and bitten by one. It’s critical to have compassion for those who experience such phobias and to take all reasonable measures to ensure their comfort when they visit your home. As a result, you ought to behave similarly when you visit someone who has a phobia.

This story, in which a woman asks Reddit if she did anything wrong by refusing to let dogs inside her home, was uploaded to Reddit by member u/AITA62. Due to the OP’s dread of dogs following a horrific encounter, the no-dogs policy had been in place for years at the house she shared with her fiance. The fiance suddenly wanted to let his parents bring their dog when they visited, something the OP was against, after years of adhering to this norm. Her boyfriend tried to convince her that she was the bad guy for refusing to let the dog inside her home, which enraged OP.

She believed that it wasn’t right to make her sad in order to make his mother happy and that there was no justification for blaming her for a phobia she is unable to control. To gather all the information and decide whether you agree with what the other Reddit users had to say, scroll down and read the whole narrative that was posted.

Since the OP was attacked by her friend’s dog, there are no dogs or other pets allowed on the property.

When she is a guest in a friend’s home, she is fine with dogs, but when it is her home, she feels like she has the final say on whether or not they are allowed.

Her prospective in-laws were only supposed to visit once, but they always followed their instructions and arranged for someone to look after the dog while they were gone.

While the majority of people adore dogs, not everyone wants one in their house.

In general, it is wise to abide by this rule.

Another insightful lesson that holds true for everyone.

Redditors were unmistakably on the OP’s side in this debate.

If you’re visiting someone you have to respect their home.

We should all respect other individuals, especially when visiting someone’s home. It appears that the in-laws require this. Do you agree with the Redditors who clearly supported the OP?
