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

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, my girlfriend dumped me because her dog "told her to". FML
Today, my girlfriend came over to talk. She just got back from a small vacation, and she'd asked me to feed her dogs while she was gone, so I did. I even stayed with them at times so they wouldn't get lonely. My girlfriend had come over to break up with me. She didn't do so earlier because she needed her dogs fed. FML
Today, my girlfriend canceled our date I've been looking forward to all week because her dog was having puppies. She doesn't have a dog. FML
Today, my girlfriend whom I'm crazy about broke up with me out of the blue. After pleading with her unsuccessfully, I called my mom for comfort and advice. She informed me that my dog had died. FML
Today, my fiancé and I broke up, and he won't answer my calls or texts. I don't want him back; he has my dog. FML
Today, it's been 3 weeks since my girlfriend of 5 years stopped answering any calls or texts. I sent her a long email for closure (for me) only to get a response that she's on vacation. I had no idea she was going away and I don't know what I did. Time to get another dog and be done with "love" for good. FML
Today, I texted my girlfriend to tell her that we couldn't hang out because my dog died this morning and we were burying him. She replied that she wasn't going to get stood up by a stupid dog. She then broke up with me. 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, my girlfriend broke up with me because her mom said she would buy her a pug if she did. I got dumped for a dog, and an ugly one for that matter. FML
Today, my wife of seven years told me that she doesn't trust me with dog-sitting her dog while she leaves to spend Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's with her family. She ended up calling someone she "trusts" to take care of her dog while I spend the holidays by myself. FML

Just take it to one of her closest relatives and tell them they'll have to take care of it until she's back because you're leaving.

Op, I know it hurts but the dog is innocent. It's another life who has no idea what happened and is dependent on human care. Don't harm it or dump it on the streets or in a shelter, otherwise you are just as bad as she is, or perhaps worse if it ends in the dogs death or harm...

You have been blessed with a golden opportunity, you now have two weeks to train the dog to hate her and crap in her bedroom

What she did was selfish but the dog is innocent in all of this. Don't take it a pound or shelter. Look after it until she gets back. They have feelings too.

"Accidentally" leave the front door of your house open.

The dog has nothing to do with the break up! It shouldn't have to suffer ???

People that are saying drop it off at a shelter. Are you ******* serious? There is a chance it'll get adopted out. The poor thing is innocent in all of this and it would possibly be losing the owner it loves. Dogs aren't meant to be swapped and traded around. At least OP is being sensible. Even a joke about it is not funny. The poor thing deserves better.

Damn, she's a bitch. She put you in an impossible position because she's selfish. Just take the high road, OP. At the end you can have her come get the dog, be standing totally stone-faced and get to say "Lose my number" as you walk away.

Now you can say that due to circumstances, you are now forced to watch the dog so now charge her for pet care
