Be a man about it. That was your problem.


You put a bullet right through that dog next time. They'll get the hint.

You just can't leave a toddler at home alone.

You see, this is where we disagree. You put a fresh diaper on them, you leave them in their baby cage, and you make sure the Crib Dribbler is full, and they'll be fine for like 12 hours.

It should be assumed today that dogs are always welcomed. As a host, you should have made it clear otherwise. You know who is happy right now? The Golden’s Doodle and his owner. You know who is not? The OP.


Well, that's just a dumb arse assumption. As a courteous guest, it is incumbent upon you to not make assumptions that just because you're invited to someone's house, that includes your fricking dog too.

It has happened to me once, and only once. One of my nephews showed up to my house when I had 20+ other folks here and had his golden lab in tow. I told him to put the dog in the yard as it was a secure area and couldn't get out. He replied that his dog was a house dog and didn't like being in the yard, so I told him to bring the dog back home to his house. Problem solved.


ETA: My lone downvoter must be one of those people that likes to express their dogs anal glands, or looks forward to the day they can do that.

You’re an inconsiderate a-hole if you really believe this.

A troll, more likely.

Went to a wedding last weekend in Pensacola we stayed in a huge rental with the families. The granddad and wife brought their dog without asking. The bride told them to go get a hotel room and not to bring the dog back to the house again. The bride was pissed but at her granddad but it smoothed over after the confrontation.

The bride and groom had their dog in the wedding ceremony, so they are dog people but the rental had a no pet policy so they had to make alternate plans for their dog.

This was an issue in our friend network a few years ago but it has ceased after 1 incident. It would drive me nuts too. Take Fido do doggy day care, not my house.

Up against a screaming baby, I'm on team Dog.

Why did you have a toddler at a party?

Did they train him to say *Woof Woof* at an appropriate point in the vows, thus affirming the sacred bond being forged?

Nah. It was more of a legal and social ceremony vs a religious one.

I will not be dog shamed by anyone. If you can't love my dog at his worst, then you don't deserve me at my best.

Only a true POS would show up with a dog much less a big dog.

Larry David wouldn’t roll his eyes and take the dog. He’d stand there at the door asking things like.

“So you brought your dog?”

“Why?”

“What about the invitation made you think it was ok to bring your dog?”

“Where don’t you bring your dog? Where do you draw the line? A funeral? Do you draw the line at bringing your dog to a funeral? Honestly, I’m just curious.”


Susie: "Shut the frick up Larry!"

I can see that scene.

We have many friends with dogs, none of them have ever brought them to our house, or even asked if they could. IMO, it would be weird to even ask someone who doesn’t have a dog if you could bring your dog to their house.



Yep. I don't bring my dog anywhere.

She got really sick this past winter and we almost lost her. After 7 days in ICU, she was put on numerous medications. We got invited to a party at a friend's house in Lafayette and I was going to stay behind so I could stay home and take care of the dog instead. They insisted I bring the pup with me, so I did, but I felt so weird. Kept her on a leash for the first hour because one child was afraid of dogs. My friend insisted I let her off the leash and that everything is fine.

I just can't fathom bringing her without having been convinced like that.
