Woman Refuses To Let Her Sister-In-Law Inside Her House With Her Dog After She Drove For Three Hours, Asks If She’s Wrong
People are expected to observe certain courtesy guidelines when they are at friends’ or family’s residences. If the hosts, for instance, don’t like animals, they should not bring their pets with them or allow them to eat at the same table as the guests, which will sour others’ appetites. This is unacceptable behavior, and it may result in their exclusion from future events.
OP told a similar experience of not allowing her sister-in-law to enter her home since she brought her dog despite numerous warnings. OP’s sister-in-law brought her dog to their last Thanksgiving dinner and let her sit on her lap at the table. She spoon-fed turkey to her pet and allowed him to lick her fingers. She did not wash her hands before taking additional food, which caused OP and others to lose their appetite. OP and her husband agreed never to let her back in their house with the dog and informed his sister of their decision. Read the full tale to find out what happened at the next family dinner.

OP was correct in locking her house door on her sister-in-law’s face after she and her husband warned her twice that she was not allowed to enter their home with her dog. She brought her pet to OP’s house, hoping to persuade OP to let her in because she had driven three hours and other family members would be supportive. OP knew that if she gave her permission this time after reminding her twice not to bring her dog, there would be no turning back, and she would bring the dog every time with a different excuse. If OP’s mother-in-law wanted to see her daughter, she should invite her to her home and enjoy her dog licking and devouring other people’s meals. What is your perspective on the OP’s actions?
