‘I have refused to take on any responsibility at all—zero’: Wife buys $4000 designer-breed puppy after suspecting husband is cheating on her, turns out she’s wrong and he gets even by refusing to help raise the dog

We don't know how many times we've said it before, or how many more times we have to say it until you all finally get it: getting a dog is a huge responsibility. Huge. Financially and time-wise. If you don't want your puppy to be a dog that thinks it runs your house, you have to commit to training it consistently throughout the first few years. Dogs are not presents, they should not be impulsive adoptions, and you should be ready for the 10-15 year commitment that comes with them.

But, all that being said, and people still buy dogs without even a second of thought behind it. Dogs, like children, cannot magically heal relationships. If anything, they put a strain on them. The first six months we had our puppy, our relationship with our partner was a little ruff (pun intended). So, when the wife in this post thought that buying a $4000 designer puppy would help her cope with her husband's alleged cheating, she was sorely wrong. Read the full spicy story below!

The dog just got thrown into the middle of this without having any idea what they were walking into. They deserve a home where they will be loved, cared for by all parties, and feel safe. Their current home does not sound like that.

However, as a fellow dog lover, we're not sure we could turn our backs on a doggo in need. Even if it was taken for the wrong reasons, like we said earlier, it's not the dog's fault. They just want to be loved like any other doggo, and as pawrents, it's our responsibility to take care of them.
