My idiot Aunt Taught Her Dog to Attack Me During Every Visit to the Family Home...

hi I'm Sarah a 25-year-old graphic designer living my best life in the big city but every few weeks I head back to my hometown to hang out with my family there's Mom Dad my big brother Tom my little sister Emily and of course Aunt Karen now Aunt Karen she's a whole different story Sarah honey your aunt's just particular mom would say trying to smooth things over but I knew the truth Aunt Karen had it out for me since day one the backhanded compliments a side eye it was relentless like when I landed my dream job

at a hot new startup her response was oh how nice for you Sarah I'm sure they hire all sorts of people these days classic Aunt Karen but whatever I brushed it off family's family right a few months ago my parents got a dog and I was thrilled I've always loved animals especially dogs they brought home this beautiful German Shepherd puppy named Max dad was gushing over him as Max zoomed around the living room I was in love but soon things took a strange turn every time I visited Max would growl and snap at me at

first I thought it was just puppy behavior maybe he was being protective of his new home but it got worse one time I reached out to pet him and he lunged at me teeth bared my boyfriend Mike had to pull me back babe that's not normal something's up with that dog Mike said concerned I brushed it off but deep down I was getting free out it was like Max had it out for me but dogs don't just hate people for no reason right things hit a breaking point during our last family dinner I was helping

Mom in the kitchen when I overheard raised voices from the living room Karen this has to stop that was Dad sounding angrier than I ever heard him I don't know what you're talking about on Karen shop back all innocent I crept closer to listen Max's Behavior towards Sarah isn't right and I think you know why mom said her voice my heart started racing what the hell is going on I stood there frozen trying to make sense of it all whatever it was it was clear this family drama was about to explode and I was right

in the middle of it after that dinner I knew I had to get to the bottom of this Mac situation no way was I going to let Aunt Karen Gaslight me into thinking I was imagining things so I came up with a plan hey Mike you still got those May spy cams from your paranoid landlord face I asked yeah why you going all James Bond now something like that I need to know what's really going on with Max Mike was skeptical but agreed to help we set up the cameras around my parents house when no

one was home it was nerve-wracking if we get caught I'm blaming you Mike whispered as we placed the last camera relax babe it's for a good cause for the next week I was on edge waiting to catch something and then bam Pay Dirt I nearly dropped my phone when I saw the footage there was Aunt Karen sneaking into the house when my parents were at work she had one of my old sweaters and was using it to train Max get her Max attack my blood ran cold as I washed her encouraged Max to tear into

my clothes praising him when he got aggressive I couldn't believe it my own aunt was training the family dog to attack me what kind of Twisted person does that I called Tom immediately Tom you're not going to believe this I've got proof Aunt Karen has been training Max to attack me whoa slow down Sarah that's a serious accusation are you sure I've got it on video clear as day Tom ever the lawyer switched into problem solving mode okay don't do anything yet let me come over and see the evidence when Tom saw the footage he

looked like he was going to be sick Jesus Christ Sarah this is I don't even know what to say we decided to show our parents that night to say they were shocked is an statement mom kept repeating I can't believe this while Dad sat there stum faac watching the video on Loop we need to confront Karen De finally said and that's exactly what we did the next family dinner felt like walking into a war zone how could you do this Karen mom was in tears Aunt Karen tried to deny it at first but the evidence

was right there it's obviously fake Sarah's always been jealous of me she probably doctored that video she spat her voice trembling can you believe the nerve of this woman me jealous of her please things escalated quickly Emily my little sis looked torn maybe it's just a misunderstanding she said weakly but Tom wasn't having it there's no misunderstanding here hem it's clear as day what's going on the family split right down the middle mom dad and Tom were on my side Emily and a couple of cousins bought into Aunt Karen's innocent act as for me I

was mess seeing my family torn apart like this was killing me I started having nightmares merely sleeping Mike was worried sick babe maybe you should talk to someone this is heavy stuff he suggested gently but I couldn't not yet not until I made sure Aunt Karen couldn't hurt anyone else in our family little that I know things were about to get a whole lot crazier Aunt Karen might have thought she won this round but I wasn't about to let her get away with it no way in hell I called up Mike and Tom for a

strategy session we need to catch her in the act with everyone watching I said pacing around Mike's living room what if we set up a fake family gathering Mike suggested Tom nodded that could work we could invite a professional to observe Max's Behavior without Karen knowing we spent hours hammering out the details Tom found a top-notch animal behaviorist Dr Martin is who agreed to help we need eyes everywhere I said but Karen's going to be be suspicious if she sees cameras that's when I remembered our techsavvy cousin Alex I gave him a call yo Alex

how' you like to play Spy for a day hell yeah what's the mission I filled him in on the plan Alex was all in promising to hook us up with some seriously stealth surveillance gear the day of the Gathering arrived and my stomach was in knots as everyone filed in a Karen showed up last eyeing me suspiciously well isn't this a lovely surprise she said her smile not reaching her eyes Dr Martinez posing as Mike's coworker mingled while keeping a close eye on Max we'd set up several scenarios to trigger Max of aggression toward me

first up I accidentally bumped into Aunt Karen spilling her drink oh my God I'm so clumsy let me help you clean up as I reached for a Knockin Max started growling fiercely Dr Martinez raised an eyebrow scribbling in his notebook next I offered to help Mom and the kitchen passing close to Max he lunged at me barking like crazy whoa Mike yelled pulling me back that was close I saw Karen smirking from across the room Dr Martinez pulled Tom aside this behavior is highly unusual it's clear the dog has been trained to Target your sister

specifically we were building our case but we needed that Smoking Gun time for the Final Act I announced I was heading upstairs to grab something from my old room as expected Aunt Karen made an excuse to follow me in my room I pretended to search the closet when I heard it Max attack I spun around to see Max charging at me on Karen pointing and yelling but before Max could reach me Mike burst in tackling the dog what the hell Karen he shouted Aunt Karen ped realizing she'd been caught I didn't mean he just that's

when Tom appeared in the doorway holding up his phone it's over Karen we've got it all on video we headed downstairs where the rest of the family was gathered around Alex's laptop watching the live feet in horror mom was sobbing how could you Karen she's your niece dad looked like he was about to explode get out of my house now Aunt Karen tried to back P it's not what it looks like Sarah's turned you all against me but the evidence was irrefutable the family watched in stunned silence as the footage played showing months of Karen's

cruel manipulation as Karen was escorted out Dr Martinez approached me I've documented everything if you want to press charges you have a strong case I looked at my shattered family at Max cowy in the corner and at Aunt Karen's retreating figure no I said finally I think Karma's about to serve up its own brand of Justice little did I know how right I was after Aunt Karen got the boot the family was in chock we all stood there trying to process what had just gone down dad was the first to break the silence I can't

believe she'd stoop so low Sarah honey I'm so sorry we didn't believe you sooner I Shrugged still feeling numb it's okay Dad at least now we know the truth mom was pacing ringing her hands should we call the police this has to be illegal right Tom ever the voice of reason stepped in letun take a breath Sarah it's your call do you want to press charges I looked around at my family at Max still cowering in the corner and sighed no I don't think so I just want this nightmare to be over just then we

heard a sudden commotion outside and all rushed to the window there was Aunt Karen stomping down the porch steps muttering to herself you ungrateful Bratz after everything I've done for this family what happened next was straight out of a slapstick comedy Max's leash which had been hanging on the porch railing somehow got tangled around Karen's feet she took one step and Wham down she went tumbling Head Over Heels down the stairs oh my God Mom gasped rushing outside we all followed even Max who seemed confused by all the commotion Aunt Karen was sprawled at the

bottom of the steps howling in pain my arm my leg look what you've done to me dad knelt beside her trying to assess the damage don't move Karen we're calling an ambulance as we waited for the paramedics Aunt Karen finally broke down I'm sorry sorry okay is that what you want to hear she sobbed I was jealous Sarah always had everything the looks the brains everyone's love I just I couldn't stand it anymore I couldn't believe what I was hearing all this because she was jealous of me that's messed up Aunt Karen you could have

really hurt me she looked away tears streaming down her face I know I I don't know what I was thinking when the ambulance arrived and they loaded Aunt Kon onto the stretch the irony of the situation Hit me hard the very dog she trained to hurt me had ended up being her downfall after Karen was whisked away to the hospital we gathered in the living room emotionally drained what now Emily asked looking lost dad sighed heavily now we heal as a family over the next few weeks we focused on putting our family back together Dr

Martinez recommended an excellent dog trainer for Max and we all pitched in to help with his rehabil ation good boy Max I praised as he sat calmly at my feet his tail wagging it was a far cry from the aggressive dog keeping just a month ago as for Aunt Karen well Karma had done its job she ended up in a Rehab Center Nursing a broken arm and leg no one from the family visited her it felt harsh but after what she'd done it seemed like justice a couple of months later I decided it was time

to bring the family together again on a happier note I threw a big backyard barbecue and invited everyone over as I flipped burgers on the grill I looked around at my family mom and dad were chatting with Tom and his new girlfriend Emily was playing Fetch with Max who had become the sweetest most gentle dog you could imagine Mike came up behind me wrapping his arms around my waist how are you feeling babe I leaned back into him smiling you know what I feel good really good and I did sure we've been through hell but

we came out stronger on the other side as I watched Max bound across the yard his tongue Laing and tail wagging I knew we'd be okay after all what doesn't kill you makes you stronger right and in this case it made our family bonds stronger than ever that's the end of my wild story folks now I got a question for you if you were in my shoes would you have press charges against Aunt Karen or do you think Karma dealt her a fitting punishment drop your thoughts in the comments below I'm dying to hear what
