My partner doesn’t want our dog anymore.

That's upsetting, to say the very least. I'm trying to put myself in your position- what would I say to my husband? I've been sitting here thinking about it and the response I keep coming back to is "Tough shit and you better not be shitty to my dog". My husband would know better than to ever say some shit like that to me, though, even if he wanted to- which he wouldnt because he and I both believe that a commitment is a commitment and a promise is a promise even if the other party isnt a human. I'd be hard fucking pressed to just give my friend away, I don't give a fuck how many legs that friend has.

So after the "tough shit" speech, I'd probably ask my husband if he has any other symptoms because there must be something wrong with his ass. And then I'd be like "excuse me, but have we met? Do you not know me at all? What the actual fuck, dude?". And if he still kept on I guess I'd get a lawyer because I wouldn't be able to stomach what that says about him as a person. I'd have to figure it's a little too easy for him to shit all over his commitments if they got too time-consuming or irritating. I'd figure my own days were numbered anyhow, may as well get it over with.
