Today, I went to my father's house to get my dog, since I had left it with him while I was on a business trip. When I got there, my dad said the dog pooped on the floor a few days ago, and so he took him to the pound. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I got home to see that my dad had let himself in. He told me he'd caught a feral dog that somehow got into my house, but not to worry, he lured it back outside and it ran away. So yeah, my dad set loose the dog I literally just saved yesterday from being euthanised at our local dog pound. Thanks dad. FML
Today, my dad came to visit me. By visit I mean he arrived, took a huge smelly dump and left. This is the first time I've seen my dad in months. FML
Today, coming home, I discovered that my dog had left me a beautiful mound of poop in the middle of the corridor. He'd made an effort, though: there was a roll of shredded toilet paper next to it. FML
Today, I stepped in dog shit, barefoot, in my own bathroom. The dog had been outside for two hours earlier, and I'd watched him take a dump. Apparently he was saving some for when he got back in the house. FML
Today, I came home from my vacation. My sister had been taking care of my dog and my apartment while I was away. As I walked in, I was greeted by a floor covered in poop and a destroyed couch. FML
Today, I got a puppy. I just found out I can't bring it on the family trip. To save me the trouble of finding a friend to take her in, my mum handed her back to the pound. 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, my dog got his head stuck in a container, panicked, and shat himself all over the living room. FML
Today, I cleaned up my dog's crap after my wife asked me. Five minutes later she yelled at me for being lazy as she slammed the door leaving for work. My dog had shat in the exact same spot, apparently to make me look stupid. FML
Today, I was walking my dog when he stopped in the middle of the street and took a dump. I looked around furtively but saw nobody, so I just kept walking. I stepped in it on the way back home. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Maybe if you can go to the pound and explain the situation to them, they'll let you have your dog back? Either way, I think you should talk to your father and tell him that that's not okay. You know, like a 5 year old. Or spray him with a water bottle, you know, like a cat.

If anyone should be taken to the pound it's your dad.

Once I was sitting one of my girlfriends dog. Little Grace ... But she was not so graceful. My girlfriend had zero dog experience and had not trained the wee doggie at all. So the damn thing went on walks with me for an hour, which consisted of nothing but her pulling in all different directions or me dragging her along or carrying her home ... only so that she could squat on the carpet the second we got in the door. I really wanted to bring that little shit to the pound, but I didn't ... instead I broke up with my girlfriend right when she got back. And I ended up paying $400 to have the carpets cleaned ... So I can somewhat understand OPs dad. He did something not so popular, but maybe it was the only thing he could do. And for OP, they should have known if their dad was capable of handling the dog and the associated "accidents" and then made different arrangements if they weren't confident.

Really, the only thing? Because I can think of at least three possible solutions if the dog was too difficult too handle: 1. Take the dog to a doggy day care and have the OP pay for the costs 2. Call up another family member or friend to take the dog in 3. Call OP and tell them to come back early from their trip. If you take a dog someone else TRUSTED you to take care of to the pound, where they could be euthanized before the owner comes back to pick them up, you're a worthless piece of garbage. It's really that simple.

I feel like crying just thinking about losing my dog. I sure hope you can get it back, OP! If my dad did something that awful, I would likely never speak to him again!

Can someone explain to me what a pound is (ps I'm just a random British guy don't kill me )

It's an animal shelter and usually refers to ones that aren't very good.

Omg! That's awful. Did you get your dog back??

Depending where you live, it's illegal for someone to surrender your animal without written consent from you (that's the case where I live, and I thought it was national). If that's the case, you can take legal action against your father for what he did. Most animal shelters also have to hold strays for a few days, so if he surrendered your dog as a stray you may still find him there. Good luck OP!
