You can help her without her staying at your place . You can drive her somewhere else and get her to a safe shelter , you can give her contact information for shelters , help her set up cabs and find places to leave her things , remind her that she is worthy of love and deserves to be safe . There are a lot of steps involved in getting away from an abuser . Look up domestic violence services in your area , they will be able to help you and her . As an old friend , I think you will rest easier if you do something to help her , but putting yourself in danger by having her stay at your house , especially when she was responsible for you getting verbally abused and bitten by her boyfrienddog , is not the best course of action for you or her . He would look for her at your house . Help her , but keep yourself safe .
