Imagine living in a small house with two kids, two cats, and a small dog, struggling to make ends meet. Now picture your partner bringing home a high-energy, potentially dangerous dog without your consent. That’s exactly what happened to a 35-year-old woman when her husband decided to rescue a pit bull that had just bitten someone. Despite her concerns for their children’s safety, he refused to listen and brought the dog home anyway. This led to a heated confrontation, with the wife giving her husband an ultimatum: it’s me or the dog.
