What should I do about my dog?

I live with my boyfriend and his family right now. But the problem is my mother told me I need to figure out what to do with my dog, because it is my dog and they don't want to take care of it anymore. I don't know what to do because my boyfriend's family already has two dogs (puppy-black lab and old- small mixed breed) under their roof and another (full grown husky) about to come back. Anyone have any advice?

The best thing to do is think about the dog. Will it be happier staying with a bunch of other dogs and with a family that might nor be able to care for all five. Or let it live with people who might have other dogs, can care for it, and want it. I don't know how your boyfriend's family is, if they'll take him/her in and care for it like their own or otherwise, but you should ask your boyfriend and his family first before you make an rash decisions.

Have you asked your boyfriend's family if you could bring your dog to their home? If they're willing to bring the dog in, go that route, so long as you're willing to help financially with things like dog food, etc... You can't expect other people to care for your responsibility forever though. I agree with an above poster that said when you took on the dog, you also took on a lifelong commitment to care for the dog yourself, not just to pawn the dog onto someone else at your convenience. Count your blessings that your mother has taken care of the dog this long, not a lot of people are willing to do so right now.

Otherwise, I'd look into finding a friend or other family member that would be willing to take the dog. If you can, offer financial help to care for the dog while its in their care, don't just pawn the whole responsibility off onto them, know what I mean? If all else fails, you can't find someone to take the dog, or you can't financially afford to support someone caring for the dog, you may need to look into a local shelter or a local rescue to see if they would take the dog, or if they would be willing to help you find a foster home for him.

Get your own place or move back in with your mom. When you decided you were old enough to get a dog, you agreed to care for it for life - not dump it on your mom when you got too busy for it.

Why did you move in with your Boyfriend's family if you knew you couldn't bring your dog?

if your not going to live there permanently then move take the dog home with you

if you not going to get a place of your own the give the dog a chance a get him a new home with some one who can

give it to meeeeee.

no.

i would just keep it. bc its like your forcing them to take care of it bc they dont want it to die.

do they?

no. im sure they dont.

Well, You Need To Either Take It Back to The Shelter, Or Give It Too A Friend. Because There is No Other Way. Im Sorry. I Fell Bad. Its Hard to Let Go.

give it to a nice family that will love it and t5ake care of it.

give it to a family who can take proper care of it
