Today, we’ll be heading to Reddit, one of the largest communities. After a few minutes of browsing, we spotted an interesting story about a dog owner being "rude" to the dogs of a lady she's pet-sitting for on the r/AmItheA**hole subreddit. The OP shared that she looked after six friendly dogs while their owners were away. Everything was going smoothly. But then, something unexpected happens, making her question, "Am I the jerk for being "rude" to the dogs of a lady I'm pet-sitting for, and yelling at her?"
The OP revealed that after a few weekends of taking care of the dogs, the pet owner said thanks to her but also mentioned a worry. It turned out that a camera caught something weird. Now, the pet sitter wondered if she had done something wrong. What's the issue? Well, it was about the dogs being super excited, and the OP didn't know how to react. When the dogs were trying to get on the OP, panting and slobbering in her face, she "turned away" from them and tried to nudge them away. But the dog owner insisted, "Don't turn away."
