Whenever we go to peruse Reddit's Am I The A*****e thread, we always find situations where the answer is so cut and dried, we don't even bother commenting. But, this thread was the first time in a while that we were genuinely divided about where we'd land. Overall, it sounds like most people were willing to forgive OP and name them Not the AH. But, we're thinking this situation calls for a ruling of ESH (or everyone sucks here) at this point. Stick with us for a minute and you'll see what we mean. We have a feeling that this sticky and stinky situation is going to make you scratch your head.
The person who posted is the father in a small, three person family. Just him, his wife, and their daughter. Oh, and the dog that he didn't want. OP was adamant that he hates pets, but compromised with his wife and daughter that they could get one, as long as he never had to do anything. He doesn't pick up poop, he doesn't take the dog to the vet, and we doubt he even plays with the poor thing. They also decided to get a Rottweiler, because why not, right? Right off the bat, this had us against OP. But, the reason he was writing to Reddit is because his wife, who seems to be completely scatterbrained, keeps leaving bags of doggie doodoo on their kitchen counter. This drove OP up a wall for a while, and then drove him to shove a bag of poop into one of his wife's shoes. Sounds like a healthy relationship, right? She was pissed, he felt justified, and now they're on Reddit trying to figure out what to make of the situation. But, we'll let you read the rest down below so you can make your own judgement.
So, after letting his wife and child know that he wouldn't be helping with the dog at all, this guy went ahead and got his wife and child one of the hardest dog breeds to care for in the world! Granted, this isn't so much a problem with Rottweilers. They are an incredible family breed. But, like any dog, they need the proper training. So, the head of the household can't have a grudge against their new family member!
So, after being wholly against OP, we got to this part of the story and started to see his side. It's pretty disgusting if this is repetitive behavior by his wife. Who wants to step into the kitchen for a snack and be greeted by a giant, steaming bag of Rottweiler poop?
