If we move in together would I have to share responsibilities for the dog?
I think he should have to pay for the pet deposit, the monthly pet rent, and all dog food, vet bills, toys, etc.
I don't want to have to wake up extra early to take the dog out before work and I can't reliably be home at lunch to take him out again. I'm fine helping walk him at the end of the day, but it would really annoy me to get home and be exhausted at the end of the day and have BF expect me to take the dog out by myself because it's "my turn" or something. It's not my dog. I also don't want to be the one doing all the extra vacuuming because of the pet hair.
Is this selfish? I don't think so. If we move in, he'll have 1/2 the expenses, 1/2 the cooking to do, etc. I don't think it'd be fair of him to expect me to take on 1/2 of HIS responsibilities for HIS dog. Am I being unreasonable? I mean it's not my dog. It's not OUR dog. if we broke up, even if i did 1/2 the work for the dog, I wouldn't be allowed to keep it in the break up.
