Answer 1

dont say anything just make her be aware what it did she will keep an eye out.

Answer 2

If you don't have a dog, ask her if she could kindly not bring the dog to your house as you are afraid you are developing allergies. A little lie, but painless, entirely unoffensive, and very effective.

If you do have a dog, tell her you're worried about the dogs not getting along...same with any other kind of pet. Say it stresses your pet out, could she please not bring hers around the next time?

Good luck, hope you find a way to tell her!

Answer 3

Why no longer placed the toddler away once you're vacationing instead? If his autism is truly that undesirable, then you want to keep a watch on him 24/7. There are all forms of issues that a baby can get themselves into at the same time as father and mom are not round. as far because the dogs is going, s/he behaved as any dogs evidently will. the toddler pestered him/her for a lengthy time period, and he or she gave him a caution to "lower back off." as far as dogs "turning," 9 cases out of ten it is circumstances like those. father and mom who do not understand the thanks to administration their youthful ones who think of their dogs ought to easily sit down there and take even if abuse and nagging their youthful ones dish out, who're then shocked at the same time as the dogs get bored to death with it.

Answer 4

Have your spouse tell her. Your spouse can say something to the effect that "although we love you and we know you love your dog we would really appreciate it if you kept the dog at home. We found it very gross that the dog used our living room as a rest area. Please understand that we love you and don't want to upset you, but we also do not want to spend money on new carpeting because of the dog used it to relieve itself."

She will get upset but your spouse needs to handle this one.

Answer 5

Tell your husband to ask her not to bring the dog over any more. Or asking for a solution. You don't want to "punish" your mother-in-law, let him take care of his family and you take care of yours. Whatever you do, make sure it's taken care of before she comes over with the dog again. One solution is, have your husband enplane to her what happened (tell him not to bring you into it) and ask that she keeps the dog outside while she's over the house.

Answer 6

I'm sure if she saw the poop she was embarresed. If you want it to be an issue, say something. If not, the next time she visits, suggest that she put the dog in your yard ( if you have one), or she should leave it at home.

Answer 7

You have to just come out and tell her...there is no easier way. It is your house and it is great that you are concerned about hurting her feelings...but bottom line is that it is your house so you get to call the shots. Just tell her in a nice and non threatening way...a good mom-in-law will respect you for having the ability to talk to her openly and candidly. I am hoping she cleaned up the dog poop and didn't expect you to do it!! : )

Answer 8

Politely ask her if she wouldn't mind letting the dog play in the backyard while we visit. If she has a problem with that then ask if she could please leave the dog at home. After all it is your house and beside if you want a dog to crap in your house you would have a dog too.

Answer 9

You will have to be extra careful so you don’t hurt her feelings. Here is what I would say in a similar situation…

Hey Mom, please keep a closer eye on your dog while you’re here visiting. Because if that little motherf*cker sh*ts in my house again. I’m going to rub your nose in it, and then smack you in the azz with a rolled up newspaper. I love you Mom, and just want you to know, that you and Fluffy are always welcome here…

Answer 10

you can tell her that you simply don't care for the dog in the house.because you really don't need the expense of a professional carpet cleaner.be honest be direct otherwise it will never end. she should respect your desires in your home.you work WAY to hard trying to keep it nice.

Answer 11

JUST BE UP FRONT AND HONEST WITH HER,SHE SHOULD UNDERSTAND EXPLAIN TO HER THAT EVERYTIME HER DOG HAS AN ACCIDENT THAT IT ENDS COSTING YOU MONEY TO CLEAN THE CARPET,AND WITH CLEANING THE CARPET OVER TIME WILL ROT THE CARPET BECAUSE OF IT GETTING WET.IF SHE INSISTS ON BRINGING THE POOCH BUY A KENNEL TO PUT IT IN DURING HER STAY.
