So my OHs sister lives in a top floor flat and in no way has ever shown to like animals. When she comes to my house she is skittish about my cat. She has an 2 year old daughter.



So to my surprise two days ago she goes out and buys a dog... anyway the dog seems lovely but today she announces she can't keep it. So I have a large garden, fields opposite my house and I offer to buy the dog from her - that way she can still see the dog and my children get a lifelong friend (we've been thinking about getting a dog for a while)



So it's all arranged, she'll drop the dog off later this afternoon. Then she texts me saying she needs to spend one more night with the dog to let her daughter down gently... ok ... baring in mind I have told my kids the dog is coming today & they're excited.. but fine, no big deal.



She then tells me the dogs been bathed and ready to go tomorrow so I ask what time she'll be over .... no reply for an hour and then I get a text saying she isn't giving the dog she now wants to keep it!?



Then after she realises I'm totally annoyed, the kids are upset and deflated she then tells me that "ah but it is a lovely breed if you do want a dog" ...



I have sent some very angry texts. But seriously am I in the wrong here!?
