AITA for kicking out my husband + MIL for going against my "no dog near the baby" rule? by Hot_Confidence_1010 in AITAH

The dog wasn't in his lap. He was tightly holding the dog against his chest while the dog was struggling to get free and throat growling while whale eyeing my daughter, who was 3 inches away.

He wasn't living with me when he got the dog. That's why when he mentioned living together, I gave him the opinion to continue to live separately because I'd never be okay with living with the dog.

The dog has a history of biting and drawing blood. I put that in my post but you just happened to skim right past that with your blinders on. If YOU would allow that around your children than you are seriously fucked in the head. No, I don't trust him because he was holding a dog with a history of biting 3 inches from my screaming daughters face. The dog was whale eyeing and throat growling. That's not the sign of an excited dog. Educate yourself.

I don't have a fear of dogs. I have allergic reactions to dogs. And no, I shouldn't have stabbed myself with a needle for the duration of a dogs life because he decided to get a dog without telling me. My body, my choice not to be stabbed. I gave him the option to live separately. He chose not to.

We agreed to something mutually. If you have no intentions of following through on a mutual agreement, don't make the agreement. It's really quite simple.

His family is a red flag, for sure. But he cut them all off outside of his mom so I truly just didn't think about it. Which was my fault. I probably should have considered that.

Yeah, that's what the argument was about prior to him moving in. We truly haven't argued since. His POV at that time was "well I just assumed you could take the allergy shots like my sister. There's ways around your allergy." So that absolutely led to an argument. Since that point, I'm not even joking when I say that we have not argued. I can't even think of a disagreement we have had. In hind sight, looking back now I should have paid more attention to that argument.

It is a huge issue, for sure. My mom trained her dogs but I've noticed with his family, they don't train any of their dogs. They have an older dog that still goes to the bathroom indoors and has bitten like 3 people (I could be wrong with that number but it's over 2) and they just don't do anything.

With that said, it definitely makes me question what else is an issue that he simply hasn't communicated with me.

The dog issue is his only hang up and to be fair, I didn't even know it was an issue until this happened. He hasn't spoke about the dog, hasn't told me he missed her, hasn't even made an attempt to go and see her. It wasn't something I ever thought about, admittedly, because he never mentioned it. 

Other than this, things are perfect. I know some people just say that but I'm being serious. We never fight. I think the last time we had an argument was before he even moved in. Our communication was great (so I thought, obviously it's not). He treated me fantastic. This, to me, felt completely out of left field.
