Today, my parents called me to ask if I could drop my dog off to them on Sunday. They're having a Superbowl party and want to show her off to their guests. My dog is invited, but I'm not. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my family went on vacation. I had to stay home to take care of everyone's animals. I called my mom, who said she was too busy to talk to me. When my sister asked her who was on the phone, she replied, "The dog sitter." FML
Today, I was watching a movie on TV. One of the characters has the same name as my dog, and when his name was called, my dog got so excited that he jumped face-first into my TV. FML
Today, my sister went into early labor. Instead of telling me, my mom turned to my dog and said, "Guess what? You're going to be an uncle!" Our dog ranks higher than me in our family's metaphorical food chain. FML
Today, I invited my boss for supper as we get on pretty well. Everything was going well, until my German Shepherd bit him. FML
Today, I lost my dog. I looked around my neighborhood for hours, and found him under my bed asleep when I got home. FML
Today, while at my job as a hostess, I was seating a couple and their adorable little girl. I tried to ask how old she was, but what came out was, "Aww, what breed is she?" FML
Today, I had been sick all day, so to cheer me up my dad drove me to get ice cream. On our way back, we hit a puppy. FML
Today, it's New Year's Eve. My husband and I weren't invited to any parties, and we don't have a sitter to be able to go out by ourselves. Instead, I'm watching "Beverly Hills Chihuahua 2" on the Disney channel with our 5-year-old, and my husband has passed out on the couch from sheer boredom. FML
Today, I was out walking my dog. I was throwing a stick in the lake so he could go get it (he loves swimming). A friend called me. After I was done calling, another friend came by, and we talked for a while. When my dog barked, I accidentally threw my iPhone into the water instead of his stick. FML
Today, my parents met my boyfriend's parents for the first time… while they were bailing us out of jail. FML

Maybe the parents knows OP has nothing in common with their friends, and has friends of his own that he would rather party with.

Honestly I wouldn't go, and inform them if the dogs owner is not welcome, then neither is the dog.

I can totally see my parents doing the same thing in a couple years when my puppy doesn't have all the puppy energy. It's not because they don't love me it's more likely they would have a bunch of dogs over for socialization but they don't like partying when I'm around. Mom can't turn off Mom mode.

While it is 100% okay for your parents to have a party without you... I would not let someone take my dog away from me.

Don't take your dog! It's your dog. But I wouldn't even if I was invited because they'll be drinking and tons of people. Something bound to go wrong for the dog. Beer and drunk friends= bad idea for an animal.
