2nd Trimester
MIL just smacked my dog
And I'm pissed!! She comes over to watch DS on Fridays and she actually hit my dog loud enough that I could hear it in the other room and right in front of DS - when I went into the kitchen he just looked stunned!
WTF - I'm so tired of her... and she's already walking around the house pointing out things that are in DS's way.... screw you - your son was gone all week and I was on my own and did the best that I can.

Oh HELL NO.
My little sister hit Tuck in front of me one time. Like, hauled off & hit her -- not just a smack. I ripped into her so fast that she's probably still nursing 5 assholes.
I don't know where she got it from -- my parents don't hit their dogs.
damn. Tuck does that too, but a push & a stern "no" is just as effective.
I'm pissed too! How dare she?
My Tina (dog) was my first "baby". DH and I jokingly tell her she's going to have to babysit her "little brother" soon.
I'm glad you said something to her - that's ridiculous. I don't think my MIL would ever dare to hit Tina. I can tell she doesn't like her (not her specifically but dogs in general) but she knows better. After all I say nothing when her cats get all over my stuff (and me) when we're visiting and I'm allergic to them!
I'm guessing Summer's housebroken or I'd encourage her to leave a "surprise" for MIL in one of her shoes or something. Tina used to do that all the time when she was mad at us when she was a puppy.
My pup gets excited and jumps on top of the counter, all fours. I'd hate to see what your MIL would do about that.
Hitting my dog, for any reason, would be like spanking my child. Unacceptable. I'd go off the deep, dark end on someone regardless of who they are.
My MIL did the same thing about a month ago and it infuriated me. Sorry you DONT USE DEODERANT but my dog thinking you smell interesting is hardly her fault! Frickin hippie...don't smack my dog just for doing what dogs do and sniffing you!
How rude!
My dog gets butt taps every once in awhile, but only when he is purposefully disobedient, not for getting excited. And DH and I are the only ones allowed to do this.
The only time MIL hitting (and by hitting I mean a small butt tap) the dog would be okay, IMO, is if the she was the only one with the baby and the dog did something to put the baby in danger, or broke one of the rules he knows (ie. taking baby's food, or getting on the furniture).
