WIBTA if I told my gf to get checked for rabies?
Throwaway cuz privacy.
My girlfriend is currently in Sri Lanka on holiday and she befriended this dog on the beach. It's really friendly and doesn't really look dirty or anything. Every morning when she goes to the beach, it comes to greet her. They're snuggling and it's licking her and never bites or scratches. However I'm really concerned as the dog doesn't seem to have an owner and I take it is a street dog. She told me on the phone about what a wonderful experience it's been with this dog, and that she made a friend. When I learned it have an owner, I immediately told her to be careful as it could have rabies. I ruined the mood, we hung up and she went to bed. I'm honestly concerned, as I don't know much about Sri Lanka and how they're governing rabies. I've googled a bit and apparently rabies can spread there now, as they have a shortage of vaccines.
So: WIBTA if I didn't let this go and demanded her to get checked before we kiss when she gets back?
