If you are a dog owner, learn to take the ownership like a responsible dog owner.
Owning a dog sounds great but can you be a good dog owner? Ask yourself before owning a dog. Learn how to take proper care of a dog before bringing the dog home. There is no use of owning a pet if you cannot handle it and others have to clean and look after it. A girl shared with the Reddit community that she moved in with two other roommates. OP and the other roommate (Jamie) had cats and the third roommate (Claire) had no issues with the cat. The cats were really sweet and never made any mess.
After a few days, Claire told them that her family dog needs to stay with her because her parents are getting divorced. Both Jamie and OP didn’t want the dog to come to the house but after a lot of begging, they agreed but kept their conditions. Claire agreed that she will feed her dog in her room. It was a blind and deaf dog, he kept barking and didn’t let them sleep for a few days. Claire used to leave the cage in between the rooms and feed the dog wherever it is sitting. The dog peed on the house instrument too. OP confronted Claire and told her that she wants her dog to go away. Scroll down for the complete story.
