Mum slammed for forcing husband to get rid of son's pet dog over fear

Welcoming a pet into the family is a big decision and one that shouldn't be taken lightly. Despite their loving and playful nature, not everyone likes having dogs in the home and it is a huge responsibility. One woman has taken to Reddit to ask for advice after her husband brought their son a pet dog behind her back - despite knowing she is terrified of them.

The pregnant mum has argued with her partner and insisted the pooch needs to go, knowing it'll break her child's heart. The post has sparked a debate online, with many users labelling the couple "selfish" and criticising both their actions. Redditors have slammed the woman for allowing her son to form an attachment with the pup before saying goodbye.
