Adopting an animal is a good thing to do. However, sometimes it's better not to if the animal is potentially dangerous for your family members. In our story today, a Reddit user found herself in a situation where she asked her husband to choose between her and the aggressive dog he had taken in. OP's husband desired a bigger dog, but their current living circumstances didn't permit it. Hence, they decided to wait until they had a more spacious yard. One day, her husband encountered a stray pit bull. Although he wished to adopt it, their neighbor ended up giving it a home. After some time, the neighbor's two pit bulls got into a serious fight, causing harm to people. The animal control authorities were on the verge of euthanizing the dogs, but the husband had an alternative plan in mind.
