I 25f, was on the phone with my friend (26f). For context, we both have our own dog and they are the same breed. I call my dog “miss rat” in an endearing and loving way, my friend also sometimes refers to my dog as that. She calls her dog a number of nicknames, like Miss honey or piggy
I was on a video call with my friend when her dog came into frame. I said “oh hi honey, who is that little stinky baby” and my friend immediately became furious. Genuinely she was speaking to me like I had dug into her and insulted her terribly. I immediately apologized because I didn’t realize it would upset her, but she said that if I couldn’t respect her dog then I shouldn’t even be her friend, and then she hung up.
I’ve been wracking my brain trying to understand if I really did fuck up. I don’t feel like it did, I never would’ve reacted that way had someone said that to my dog, but I know everyone’s feelings are different.
So, AITA? Should I have known not to address her dog like that? I really don’t know.
What? NTA.. they’re stinky babies it is what it is.
🤣 I agree. Even though I have nothing against dogs and we had dogs as kids. They do stink.
