Dogs easily win anyone over but that doesn’t entitle you to own someone else’s dog.
Dogs are one of if not the most adorable creatures in the world. With over 1.6 million adoptions every year, according to a survey report, you have to agree a dog is the most loved animal and people love having them at home as their pet. And the main reason for that is they are extremely sweet and very gentle with those who they form an inoperable bond with. Life after the adoption is full of bliss, fun, entertainment, joy, and, above all, love. It is their charming personality and adorable looks that make it very easy for dogs to win anyone over in the very first interaction.
When dogs need something, they like to connect more and saw a little more love than normal. Suppose a friend of yours comes over and your dog wants to play with them. It will show your friend a lot of love which may make them think it is in love with you and they may not want it to separate from them. Yes, it does mean the dog likes you but that does not mean it I your “soul dog” and you get to keep it just because it gave you two licks and three kissies.
In today’s Reddit story that we have got for you guys today, a woman asks her sister if she can keep her dog. OP’s sister has a dog named Tycho. She adopted him after her graduation as a vet tech. Tycho is OP’s sister’s first ever dog and she is great with dogs, especially when it comes to training them. OP’s sister had formed an inseparable bond with Tycho but had to leave her dog with OP for 4 months due to some reason you guys will read in a minute.
Now what happened and how did the situation get to OP wanting to keep her sister’s dog, you guys will discover as you read the story. Come on, I must keep some suspense, right?
Scroll down below to read what happened.
1. Looks like OP connected with her sister’s dog more than her sister expected.

2. She presented her matter to the community of AITA as a very confused person and it had something to do with her sister who she dearly loved.

3. OP’s sister is an animal enthusiast. She got her first dog, Tycho, after graduating as a veterinary technician.

4. Tycho and OP’s sister are gelled together and one of the reasons for this is how amazingly she trains Tycho every day.

5. The sister had to go on an international tour to help injured animals in South America and requested OP to take care of Tycho during that 4-month-period. OP agreed.

6. Turns out, OP fell in love with Tycho and didn’t want to give him back to her sister because she felt a really strong connection with the very well-behaved dog.

7. OP thinks the connectivity between her and the dog is all her effort. She believes the dog also helps her with her autism. Hence, she wants to keep Tycho permanently.

8. She got a red flag from her parents who said they will disown her if she steals her sister’s dog.

Yes, OP. You will most certainly be the a**hole if you steal Tycho, and yes that is stealing. Don’t think for a second you can keep someone else’s dog because you believe it is the right animal for you. That’s not how connections work. Wait till Tycho gets a glimpse of his owner, he will go crazy and run faster than a cheetah to hug her. And then you will realize how big of an AH you were stealing your sister’s dog.
And one thing that is even more hilarious is mentioned in the seventh paragraph in which OP says she will have her sister “support” Tycho. So basically she wants to keep the animal but does not want to pay for its expenditure. Girl, you are autistic but that doesn’t mean you can escape anything. You are a complete AH and your husband is an even bigger AH for agreeing with this ridiculous plan.
Here’s what the community members of AITA had to say and vote:
9. Even though she was away she did everything in her power to make life comfortable for her sister as she felt Tycho might be a burden on OP.

10. That is a really good suggestion and OP should take this into consideration.
Via AITAmydogorhers
11. Exactly, everything that dog is today is due to the efforts of its owner.

12. The dog never belonged to OP and she has no right to keep it. It will count as stealing and I don’t think an autistic person would like to spend time in jail.
Via AITAmydogorhers
13. Exactly, this could turn into hell for OP.
Via AITAmydogorhers
14. As simple as that.

15. She would be a disgrace if she stole Tycho. Instead, she should talk to her sister and request her to rescue a dog that she could adopt…if she loves and wants a dog that much.
