Why cant i get my fiances mom to let my dogs inside?

This might be long but here it goes, I need peoples opinions on what i can do for my puppies. I don't want to find a new home for them but its looking like i might have to. Here's the story. ........................... My fiance got me two beagle puppies around 7 months ago, best gift ive ever gotten. I love animals to me they are my children. When we got them they were in the house in the room with us in a little sleep pen, almost like a baby's play pen. After a few weeks his mother Demanded they have crates. So even with a low paying job i saved and got them 2 crates which cost me around $120. I didn't complain though i wanted them so i was up for the responsibility. After weeks past she suggested a pen, the outdoor kind. Just for them to play in durning the day of course. Well I thought that'd be nice, them having a little area for them to play in outside. So once i saved another $120 i got them a 10x10 pen. She claimed for the day only. For a few weeks it went that way them after a while they stayed out there all day all night. Which made me pissed off but what could i do its her house. I got told once it gets cold they can come in at night so i let it happen. Well now its cold and no, they dont get to come in there out their in a dog house in a small pen miserable. According to her they are outside dogs dont belong in the house cause there gross. BUT her dog, who yes, is a cute pomeranian is inside, but she doesnt even go out to pee if its cold. So pretty much she pisses and poops in the house all day but its ok,Shes her baby. But when i say their my babies and i think there adorable she tells me to stop kidding myself there not cute. Well to me they are, ive never seen a cuter more loving pair of dogs................... Im basically asking everyones opinion on what i can do. They recently got out and went missing. You would think when they got back it would be different but it isnt they still get called stupid dumb dog, by everyone but me and my fiance, and i constantly get told to get rid of them. Does any one have any opninion on it??? I dont want them to go they mean the world to me. But im starting to think it is the only thing i can do against a One minded bitch, pardon my french but its true. Heh well moving isnt an option atm. We dont make enough money he is finishing up getting his automachanics degree. Unfotunatly we have to wait it out. I also had 2 cats if that matter. One got tossed outside and she tells me she sees him all the time. Which is a lie, the other is getting told by my fiance to get put outside and thankfully he has been keep him in. The bitches is non stop from this women. NOTHING is goos enough not the way i dress, act, look, speak. I mean she yells at me cause im shy and dont like to talk much. Just to give ervyone a little more on how, in my opinion, stupid this lady is. Beleive me id kick her a** if i could but i dont want to get kicked out. He still lives here with here and i want to be with him. Its her thats the problem. I mean, everyone thinks there mother in law is a bitch but i really think mine truely is. And he has stood up to her but didnt mean anything. She didnt care. It seems hopeless and that the best thing to do is be miserable and re-home them. The are beagles. They are not that big. MEdium size. Im not saying have them run around but seriously keep them licked outside in the cold all day and night? Heartless much? I want to make this clear i understand this is her house so her rules. But im not saying let them run around the house all day im saying let them sleep in the damn house where its warm and dry. *locked sorry Honestly i would hate to get rid of them i really would. WE plan on moving out in 1-2 years. Which currently my loving parents have ALL me other pets an agreed to take care of them for me till i have a place. I have 6 cats another two dogs and 3 ferrets. To let yal know how much i love animals. And yes it is alot but they all get VERY well taken care of and plenty of love. I do look after my animals, every single one of them so dont go off saying i dont. They are at my parents house but when i say parents house i mean where i use to live not to long ago until i moved in with my fiance. Even my brother still lives there. These are animals i have had. Not recently gotten. I have had one of the dogs for over 13 years and the other for 3. My cats are 4 and ferrets about the same. This isnt my house and do i had to leave them at my old residence with my parents and brother. That does not mean i dont take care of them. Obviously we are not settled down and have a place of our own. We hope to soon but not currently just because my parents would rather them stay with them instead of getting treated like my other dogs are currently i dont see a problem witht that.

  1. I would move, me, the dogs and the fiance if he dares to backsass his mom.
  2. rehome them or stand up to you mother in law OR GET YOUR OWN PLACE TO LIVE ... that would be best
  3. Personally, I do not see how it is any of her business. Does she live with you? What does your fiance say about all of this? I would talk to him about all of this and tell him how distressing it is for you to have his mother treat your babies like this. Maybe say something like... if we have children some day and they are ugly, is "good old grandma" going to make them stay outside in a cage? I wish you the best of luck :)
  4. get your fiancee to stand up to his mom.... or move
  5. move. if this is HER house then you legally have no control but I would definitley move. or tell her that you can get in a lot of trouble for having your dogs live outside when it is this cold out. try and get your fiance to talk to his mother sorry I cant help more I would honestly kick her ass if she did this to me
  6. I think I have an idea what your fiance's mother is thinking. Her pom may poop and pee in the house but it is one little dog. When your fiance brought in the two beagle's, they were two more dogs to poop and pee and I'm sure they do even if you don't see it. In mutiple pet homes,all dogs hike or squat all the time if one does. This means extra doggie odor, even if it's just a dog smell, not to mention the shedding. I had one dog for years, then got a second one. My daughter moved in with her two (they are all small dogs) and my house smells like a kennel, no matter how hard I work to keep it clean.
  7. your french is right on that woman is rude and sounds cold hearted to keep puppies out in the cold beagles are amazingly adorable you should go outside and get them after she goes to sleep she doesnt like you and is just trying to make you miserable to make you leave dont get rid of them, put a blanket out there for them and try to make it as comfy as possible im so sorry she is horrible
  8. Your mother in law has narcissistic personality disorder, and there is nothing you can do about it. If you continue with this man, your life is going to be terrible. If she is treating your puppies this badly, imagine how she would treat your sacred children. Your mother in law thinks she is right and the world is all wrong, and nothing you ever do will ever be good enough for her. In her mind she doesn't see anything wrong with your dogs being outside, and you really need to search your soul so you don't spend the rest of your life stuck with this bitter woman. The problem with narcissistic personality disorder is that there is no cure, and even if she went to therapy for years, there would be no change, because in her mind there is nothing wrong with her, you are the one with the problem. Even if you and your man moved thousands of miles away, she would still cause problems for you. You need to get as far away from her and her son as possible, and find a good home for yourself and you dogs. You deserve better, and so do they.
  9. You don't have many options here. I agree that she's being unreasonable, but since you're living in her house, it's her rules. But, since you can't afford your own place, and you say you won't be able to for a long time, I think you should find a new home for these dogs, one where they're part of the family. And since you already have cats, dogs and ferrets which you're unable to house, please don't get any more animals until you can take care of them yourself, in your own place. I love animals too, but I don't keep more of them than I can afford to look after.
