Today, I called my mother to check up on her. Lately, she's been having some financial problems, so last week I sent her my last $100 to help her out until her next paycheck. She used the money to euthanize the family dog. FML

Today, my mom started fundraising and selling things on eBay. At first I was happy because I thought she was finally going to help me pay my college tuition. Turns out she's planning on raising money to get our dog a new friend because she's "lonely." FML

Today, I found out my mom recently stopped taking her medication. I came home to find she'd shot my dog because she thought he was possessed by the devil. FML

Today, it's been 3 months since I agreed to my mom's suggestion that we send my dog for training. I just found out that she never sent him for training, but sold him to someone. FML

Today, I was taking out the trash and I came upon a bill from a veterinary hospital. It was for $50 and it was a bill to put my dog down. My Dad said my dog was missing and I put hundreds of signs around the city. 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, after months of helping my mother with bills because she claimed she had no money, I found out she makes way more than what I do. She just wanted my money for alcohol and drugs. FML

Today, my parents told me they wouldn't be able to afford my senior portraits. That was fine with me, until I found some expensive professional photos in the mail. Of our dog. FML

Today, I got a huge bill through the post. It turns out that my elderly mother made the vet come out to my house to see the dog while I was out, because she was scared of the little growths she had found on his body. They were nipples. FML

Sell your mother to buy your dog back

Sell her car to pay your bills and then tell her about it later.

my mom tried to take my cats to a shelter, so I made her take out a loan to get them back. the reason she took them there in the first place was because she thought they would eat her in her sleep.

I like how you assume I live with my mother. This is my FML. I paid my mom to watch my dog while I was out of town for work. I pay my own bills and do not live with her.

I moderated this one, and what's worse is apparently OP doesn't even live with their mother. :(

Sell her to buy the dog back and then pay the bills with the rest and keep her car for yourself

Your mom is a bitch, so its ok to sell her instead of the dog. Good riddance of bad rubbish. No dog ever costs that much to realistically cover bills. Nor the maintenance is so high as some try to tell us. What they have is unsurpassed emotional value. I have 3 dogs, I know.

Hey, OP here. My mother does not live with me. She agreed to watch my dog for me while I was out of town. She decided since my dog is a purebreed that she was going to sell it to pay a bill. My mom is not impoverished and if she had asked, I would have gladly given her the money. She does not own Happy, nor has she ever contributed to the cost of the dog. I pay her to dog sit, though that won't be happening ever again. I found the people she sold the dog to and the police are now involved, so Happy will be returned to me.

I'm so glad that you're getting your dog back, OP. I'd cut a bitch if anyone ever did something to my dog. Just curious, what kind of dog is Happy?
