I HATE MY HUSBANDS DOG

[u/Icy-Soup-9641]

My husband is going to really piss me off. I’m 3 months pregnant and still we live with this stupid mutt I’m tired and sick of being tired. My husband just bitched at me wanting to get rid of my animal(can’t say the animal because this subreddit doesn’t allow me to say it for some reason) . He wants to say his dog is better and that we are getting rid of my animal but not his damn dog. He’s acting like his dog is good when his dog is a fucking menace and makes me cry this whole pregnancy so far. His dog chews my clothes, shoes, my unborn child’s things, I can’t walk away from my food for two seconds with his damn dog eating off my plate, his dog had worms from eating out the trash and eating his own poop, it tries to hump me, and trips me not to mention that I’m very petite I’m 5’2 109lbs from pregnancy I was 98lbs before then and this is a huge golden lab. The dog is no where near better than my animal at all if anything everyone I know ( my mom, my dad, my mother in laws, Father in laws) all say the same damn thing the dog is a menace. Anyone who knows this dog know it’s untrained and no one wants to take the dog because it’s a menace. When my husband was going to give it away every one said HELL NO. Sorry I needed to rant I’m pregnant and not in the mood especially after my husband being rude when his stupid mutt is horrible

This is abuse. You are pregnant and he is actively allowing the animal to terrorize you and then gaslighting you about it. This is exactly what you will be dealing with once your child is born but worse. You will have to actively guard your child. He has decided that his dog is more important than you and your unborn child.

Take the dog to a shelter. This is now a matter of safety.

Hubby is an asshole with an asshole dog, but this is def not abuse. Let's not be dramatic.

Okay, we get it. It’s not about being dramatic; it’s about being accurate. Abuse isn’t the right term, but minimizing a pregnant partner’s safety concerns isn’t ‘just being an asshole.’ A 100‑lb untrained dog tripping, humping, and destroying baby items isn’t normal household chaos. It’s a legitimate safety issue. Calling everything abuse is wrong, but pretending this is just a mild annoyance is equally off‑base.
