Today, I finally decided to get a dog. I have always been wanting to get one ever since I was a child. I bought a $1,400 Golden Retriever. I went out for lunch a few hours later with a friend, so I left my dog in the backyard. I came back home to a broken fence and no dog. FML

Today, I went to a pet store to adopt a dog. I got a medium sized lab, a dog crate, and a few toys, then put his crate in the back of my truck and the dog in his crate. On the way home I realized I forgot dog bowls and some dog food. I went back, and when I got back out to my truck, my dog was gone. My stereo too. 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, 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

Why didn't you tie it up? If it was a new pet, you don't know how it's going to react. YDI for not making sure it was secure!

You deserve this solely for the fact that you were stupid enough to waste over $1000 on a dog when you could have easily rescued one from a shelter. People like you are the reason there should be a competency test before a person is allowed to own a dog. Unbelievable.

Although that must have been sad for you, that is why you should adopt a dog. There are so many who need homes.

You're not to leave an untrained puppy unattended in a yard, idiot. thats probably why your parents never got you one in the first place, because you were irresponsible and obviously you still are and now theres another homeless dog on the street. It upsets me that people can be this ******* dumb!

My god this place is full of idiots #41 and al you others talking about how much he spent - purebred golden retrievers are very expensive. I grew up with 2 as pets and my parents just got a puppy a few years ago. Price was $2000 and worth every penny.

You kind of deserve it if it was a new dog because you shouldn't leave it alone at first anyway, but then again I see why you wouldn't think your brand new dog would break down a fence.

You guys are all DUMBASSES for saying how much you spent on your "pure bred" dog and how it was "worth every penny." Next time, try ADOPTING a dog. Who cares if it's not "pure bred?" There are so many dogs waiting to be adopted. Wow. Unbelievable. Never put a price on an animal.
