Meet Amy, a 23-year-old who recently moved back home with her beloved pooch, Max, a medium-sized spaniel mix. Amy’s mother, however, had one rule – no pets. Despite this, Amy assured her mom that she would handle everything related to Max, and so, the furry friend was welcomed into the family home. But what happens when Max’s behavior starts to disrupt the household, affecting everyone’s sleep schedules and even causing physical harm?

A Mother’s Plea or a Daughter’s Defiance? The Doggone Drama Continues
In a household turned upside down by a mischievous spaniel mix named Max, a mother is at her wits’ end. From sleepless nights to classroom struggles and even physical harm, Max’s antics have pushed the family to breaking point. Amy, Max’s owner, seems to find humor in the chaos, leaving her mom to issue an ultimatum – re-home Max or move out with him. As Amy and Max take temporary refuge at her boyfriend’s house, family and friends weigh in, defending Amy and blaming the mother for not training Max. But who’s really at fault here? And what will become of Max? Let’s see what the internet has to say about this fur-flying fiasco…

Max, the dog, causing family drama. Who will he choose?

“NTA
Why the hell would it be your responsibility to train HER dog?
And the ‘she’s been a great houseguest other than Max’ is like saying Gacey was a great party clown, other than the bodies in the basement–it’s a thing so big it eclipses and erases the rest.
Look at the people chiding you as if they have paper heads and say 1) it seems to be working out great with Amy and the dog at her boyfriend’s, so that all worked out, and 2) Amy is employed and able to afford her own housing, and this was never meant to be permanent, so with those two things in mind, who cares?
I’m betting Amy is going to get dumped by her boyfriend over Max pretty soon, at which time you can say ‘see, not just me!’ Or stay mum and suggest these oh-so-worried friends and relatives take Amy and her amazing dog in. I’m guessing they don’t want to, which is why they’re trying to guilt you into it.”
