SOf course, your brother in law shouldn’t have hit your sister. Nothing can justify violence. They should’ve had a mature conversation and discussed their issues.
Having said that, 8 dogs is a lot! It’s unlikely that any guy will be willing to marry a woman who says that she’ll move in with 8 dogs. Ultimately, your sister has to decide what’s more important to her… having a life partner (whether it’s her current husband or someone else), or her 8 dogs.
Maybe she can be a bit more reasonable and just have 1 or at the most 2 dogs. If she has more than 2 dogs, everything starts revolving around the dogs and their needs. All her time and attention will be directed towards the dogs. It’s good to have pets, but your sister is taking it too far. She has to realize that she can’t take care of all the dogs in the world. At some point, she has to realize that she’s depriving herself of a meaningful human relationship due to her obsession with having so many dogs. Has she thought of starting a shelter where the dogs are cared for by staff?Even if things don’t work out with your brother in law, any future prospective partner will back out the minute they hear about 8 dogs!! Giving you an unbiased outsider’s perspective – 8 dogs is a HUGE red flag for any guy. 1 or 2 dogs sounds much more reasonable. This way, she gets to have pets and will still be able to have a life partner.
