Today, I got a puppy. I just found out I can't bring it on the family trip. To save me the trouble of finding a friend to take her in, my mum handed her back to the pound. FML

Today, I found my dog, who had been missing for over a month, at the local pound. Clearly it was my dog, she responded to her name and cried when she saw me. However, the woman there told me I could not simply take her, I had to follow through with all policies. I paid $250 to adopt my own dog. FML

Today, I went to my father's house to get my dog, since I had left it with him while I was on a business trip. When I got there, my dad said the dog pooped on the floor a few days ago, and so he took him to the pound. FML

Today, I brought back the puppy I adopted for my family. I spent months doing all the research on puppy care with two young children, and at least five hundred dollars for the dog, the supplies, toys… the whole lot. Turns out everyone's allergic to her. FML

Today, my girlfriend broke up with me over the phone, after having left me to look after her dog while she went on a 2-week vacation with her family. Now I have to choose between paying for a kennel for her damn dog or taking care of it every day until she gets back. FML

Today, my parents finally fulfilled my childhood dream and got a puppy, after years of me nagging at them. The only downside is that I no longer live at home and he's not mine. FML

Today, after I went to live with my biological mom, after she convinced me she’s been off drugs while I was living with my grandparents, she gave me one of two puppies she'd bought as a gift. Then she got arrested. Turns out she stole said puppy. Some things never change. FML

Today, my mother-in-law "borrowed" my dog without asking, to show him off to her friends. My dog is my service animal, and I'm not comfortable leaving the house without him. I have to be at work in an hour, and she's not picking up her phone. FML

Today, my ex adopted a dog from the dog pound. It was the same dog he made me get rid of while we were still together. FML

Thats terrible. You and your mom ought to be ashamed of yourselves. This dog and millions of other animals are put down yearly because of irresponsible people like you. F whats left of the dogs life as it may very well be killed now.

Oh my god. Animals die all the time, it's not the end of the world when someone pulls a dogs tail or something. I hate pet lovers so much.

yeah that was rational, it's not pet lovers you hate it's those super conceited in your face animal rights activists, pet lovers are often rational and quiet about their love of animals

I just realized that putting the accent on 'take' in the statement "finding a friend to take her in" completely changes the meaning of the sentence as opposed to what the OP meant. It took me like 5 minutes to realize that's not what they meant. this should be written better.

Why would you put emphasis on that word? Don't blame the OP for your mistakes, dumbass.

I'm pretty sure since the trip would probably only be temporary that her friend would only have her for a bit. Sometimes parents jump the gun when it comes to things and it sucks.
