Pets are living creatures that we welcome into our homes and hearts as family members, rather than just animals that we purchase from pet shops or breeders. Even though we may have purchased them, the person who cares for them is the one who genuinely owns them.<\/p>\n

It is the one who looks for them, walks them, and loves them enough for them to be considered truly their own. And today, we have one of those tales.<\/p>\n

Phoebe (21), Maddie (18), and Lily (16) are the three girls that OP and her husband made. Over her husband’s habit to spoil Lily, OP and her husband frequently quarreled. A prime example of this was Lily’s desire for a dog in April of 2020, despite the desires of OP, Phoebe, and Maddie, who were all against getting a dog. Charlie, a tiny pom chi puppy, was brought home by her husband in July 2020. Lily soon became attracted to Charlie and took care of him. But after a few months, Lily changed her mind and chose a cat since she felt that dogs required too much work.<\/p>\n

Charlie was no longer permitted to sleep in Lily’s room because Duncan the cat\u00a0was already using it by the time Christmas rolled around. Phoebe grew fond of Charlie and took over caring for him after Lily stopped bringing him for walks and playing with him.<\/p>\n

When Phoebe finished her degree and decided to move out, OP allowed her to take Charlie with her. When Lily learned, she was furious and asserted that OP had no right to do so, and her husband agreed. Now OP wonders if she an A-hole or not. Keep on scrolling down to know the whole story and then let us know who’s the A-hole here.<\/p>\n

\nOnly the person who takes care of the dog and pays attention and love to it is the rightful owner of the dog, no one else is entitled to Charlie. When Phoebe was taking all the care of the dog where was Lily then? She had just abandoned the dog because it required a lot of work, right? And now when Phoebe has been handling everything and even paying for the dog’s food and healthcare she is the rightful owner of Charlie.<\/p>\n
