But she is only like that for a short time until she does her greetings and then she's on about her business , so I told hubby I was no longer going to do that if they didn't like dogs then they could stay home this was her home and they were the visitors After some cooling down time maybe you two could get together and talk. |
I agree with you. My friends and family know how I am about my girls. And if they don't like them then I can't help that. I will not punish my girls when they have done nothing wrong by locking them away. But I must add, how could they not love Miss Phoebe?!
OP you are not over reacting at all and I am so sorry you had to deal with this. As a matter of fact, I think you handle the situation very nicely. The 2 year old has to be taught not to do this because at that age they don't know any better. I would have a talk with your cousin and let her know how you feel. Explain to her that Princess is your family. Hopefully the situation will never present itself again.
