Today, I went to check if my neighbours were home to return their dog, having looked after her for a few days. I looked in the window and the place was empty. They'd moved house and stuck us with their dog. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, after a week of rejoicing that my petty, passive-aggressive, bullying neighbours were moving away, I came home to find the "to let" board had been outside the wrong house the whole time. It's actually the people I really like who are moving away. FML
Today, I got home from work and found my dog missing. When I asked my neighbor if she saw what happened, I saw my dog sleeping on her couch. She tried to say it was hers. FML
Today, I came home to find a window broken and my neighbours searching inside my house. Apparently, they'd heard a small child asking for help inside my house. I recently taught my dog to "talk." FML
Today, I went to pick up my dog from a friend's place since she agreed to watch him while I went out of state for Spring Break. I arrived at her apartment. She’s gone and the apartment was vacated. She won’t answer her phone or texts, and vanished from all social media. I’m still making payments on the dog. FML
Today, most of my neighbours came to my house in an angry mob to complain about my dog barking. I don't have a dog. FML
Today, I went to visit a friend I hadn't seen in ages who lives alone out in the country. I arrived and found the front door unlocked but no one was home. I went in anyway and helped myself to some food. Then a family I had never seen before came in, and I realized it wasn't my friend's house. FML
Today, I walked into my house after my nightshift as a nurse and my corgi had the house turned upside down, with things everywhere. I have people coming to look at the house in 2 hours. FML
Today, I went to visit my parents after 4 years of not seeing them. They'd moved without telling me. FML
Today, my neighbor knocked on my door and asked if I'd seen her cat. I helped her search the hallway, basement, and garden for 30 minutes. We finally found it sitting inside my apartment, where I had apparently been living with it for three days without noticing. FML
Today, my landlord came over while I wasn't home. My friend and her pets were thrown out by her husband. I'm the only person she knows in this state and she begged me to stay. I reluctantly told her fine; just don't answer the door. She did, with the animals, and told him she was living here. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

If you have their cell phone number, call and tell them that you're going to report them to the cops for animal abandonment unless they come back and get their dog TODAY.

Maybe they wanted you to watch the dog for a few days while they moved, so it wouldn't get stressed out or get in the way. They might still be coming back for it.

YDI for not asking when they would be returning from their "trip" when you agreed to take care of their dog...that would have been my first question.

All of the people saying yay free dog, dogs are expensive so great etc. But really these people don't sound like they want a free dog. If it was an expensive, smart, trained, full bred dog w/AKC papers I doubt it would have been abandoned. It is probably untrained, of no monetary value, poorly bred and raised by these abandoning neighbours who are such broke lowlifes that they do this? The dog is probably no prize....

103 you are all over it. If this dog were worth anything the previous owners would have sold it. The fact that it was dumped proves that it has no monetary value and is probably untrained and poorly behaved. If it had any redeeming qualities they would have made an effort to keep it. I am guessing these people got this dog not knowing what a drain dogs are, finanically and otherwise, and dumped their expensive, smelly, pooping, peeing, barfing, barking, humping, slobbering, jumping mistake on the unsuspecting OP before it put them in the poor house and are laughing and screaming "SUCKER" as we speak. If this happened to me I would have called the local animal control officer, who would come to my home and take it off my hands (sorry, don't know if there is such an office in Canada). Additionally this person is connected with the police and has the resources to hunt down and punish the previous owners. Of course that is highly unlikely as I would never have agreed to watch the stinking thing in the first place and it would never have set one dirty paw in my home.

103: Yeah, who the **** wants a dog with no monetary value or AKC papers? It's not like you can train it or anything, and since it's had one [possibly] bad home, it's surely incapable of ever showing any kind of love, affection, or personality. This is exactly why I don't believe in foster homes or adoption for abandoned human kids either-- they clearly have no redeeming value. If they'd been worth anything to begin with, or had bothered to put in a little damn effort to be more loveable, they'd obviously never have been abandoned in the first place, amirite?!
