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
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

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.

Let it free. If it loves her, it'll come back to her.

I would text her, tell her you left the dog at a shelter. Tell her they will euthanize the dog the day before she returns. Keep the dog until she returns. She will be worried and will not enjoy her trip.

Maybe I am confused. I have lived all over the U.S. and I have 2 dogs myself who have been kenneled and I have never had to pay for a kennel beforehand. You always pay when u pick up the dog. So I am not seeing why you can't take him to a kennel (make it an expensive one if you want) and when she gets back tell her where to pick him up. You're not a jerk and she learns a valuable (and expensive) lesson in being a decent person.

Take it to an animal shelter and have her pay the fee to get her dog out.. ¯_(ツ)_/¯ she deserves it..

Take it to the pound and give them all her info. Get written proof of what you told the pound, have them sign it. When she comes back she will have to get her dog and pay all their care fees. If she doesn't, she doesn't get her dog. Law can't do anything about it because, technically, you'd be doing the responsible thing.

A pound isn't a kennel. They aren't there to babysit animals, most times they are already full of animals as it is.

First, you're a wonderful person for still taking care of the innocent dog. Second, WHAT A ****. Who the **** puts someone in this position? For both you and the dog. Luckily you have a soul and are still making sure the dog is alright, but you very well could have been one of the many nasty people out there and have taken your anger out on the poor dog. This girl is terrible to do this to you, and for the risk she put the dog in.

Mail the dog to where she is vacationing.

OP's fault for even agreeing to keep it in the first place

Okay, you're probably a troll, but I'll bite. How on God's green Earth does agreeing to watch your girlfriend's dog while she's out of town make you an idiot or somehow deserve mistreatment?
