Today, my cousin is coming home after his honeymoon. His gift to his new wife was a puppy, which I said I would take care of while they went away. I sneezed last week and scared the puppy. She ran off. This was ten days ago, and I still haven't found the dog. FML

Today, my boyfriend finally let me take his dog on a walk, after two years of not trusting me to keep her safe. During the walk, a car drove by, causing her to run after it and pulling the leash out of my hand. Five hours later, and I still can't find her. FML

Are you telling me you had a PUPPY outside not on a lead? Or are you telling me you have lost a puppy inside your own home? Either way, you are fucktarded. The poor puppy :(

Replace the pup before they return from the trip.

It's not your fault. Animals have their own minds too.

I agree with some other commenters that this story seems a little strange. I got my puppy at 8 weeks old, and even then he still had what I call puppy legs, short, fat, and wobbly enough that if they run too fast, they end up doing a front roll- almost makes it impossible for them to run away. Anyways, have you called local shelters, put up signs, asked friends to help you look? You should probably tell your cousin that you've lost the puppy BEFORE he returns home, or else you're going to realize just how unbelievable the "sneeze story" sounds as you're telling it, then you'll just look like a fool.

I have.a feeling that op has given up all hope in finding that puppy.

So you had a puppy outside without a leash? Pretty much your fault, then.

wow, they changed the definition of "last week" to mean "exactly one week ago"? I wish I was caught up on these things!

Buy a fish.... Tell them that an old woman sitting on a park bench turned their puppy into a fish and you ran and got a bowl for him... And here he is...

Say the puppy ran away but say," oh my god (insert puppies name here) just ran away as you were pulling in the driveway!" in a frantic voice.

Telling them is the best option. Not much you can do, you just sneezed and it ran off. That's just bad luck OP.

Buy a replacement ASAP.

Where the hell were you with it, for it to be able to run off? You shouldn't be outside with it until it's been trained not to run off, unless there's a fenced-in yard. Obviously there wasn't. YDI for not being more responsible.
