[NAGDU] Thanksgiving

[Dan Weiner]

And be prepared for a whelter of bs questions and excuses and accusations:
"well you don't really need the dog" "your husband will be there?" "why are
you being so obstinant, are you passive aggressive" and so on and so on I
heard it all.

Warmest regards,

Dan

She could also wander off if the fence isn't secure or gate isn't closed. If
she gets anxious out there in a strange yard, strange place, and strange
lots of things without you, she could get into serious trouble. 

The first words that came to mind when I read the original posts were
"Awwwww, hell no!" Sadly, be prepared for a flat out refusal should she not
be willing to let you have Becky with you on leash in her house, and be also
prepared to react accordingly. Some people may be willing to give once they
understand that your dog will not be running around the house breaking
things, but some people are just absolutely adamant, no dogs, period amen.
Which is their right, but they can't be too upset or think you're being
unreasonable or what have you if you choose not to participate.
