A furry feud: A dog vs a boyfriend. Who’s the a**hole?

“NTA My parents are married and live together, and I still say ‘my mom’s dogs,’ ‘not my parents’ dogs’ because they’re not family dogs. They’re hers. (And he agrees with me.) Realistically, you’re paying all the dog-related expenses and you don’t live together. There’s no universe in which your dog should also be considered his dog. Your boyfriend is also being an idiot–dogs don’t understand human ownership rules. The person who owns the dog isn’t necessarily who the dog chooses as their ‘person.’ My dog also clearly loves several of my neighbors without them thinking she belongs to them, too. Owning the dog is not a prerequisite to receiving canine love.”
