'I’m debating on giving him his ring back': 23-year old trailer park guy forces his 22-year-old fiancé to care for destructive labrador retriever puppy 24/7, she considers ending things for good

Pawrenting a puppy is the closest thing to a full-time job that you can do without getting paid for it. They need constant care and attention. You need a mountain of Band-Aids for all the teeth marks you'll have from their teething phase. You'll have a few sleepless nights at the beginning of the crate-training phase. And, of course, you'll be cleaning up lots of bodily fluids until your puppy learns the joys of going to the bathroom outside. It's hard enough to do it as a pair of pawrents, and doing it alone is next to impawssible without losing your sanity.

What's even more frustrating is when you get a puppy as a couple, but only one of you acts as a pawrent. When one partner is absent or doesn't put any effort into raising the living, breathing, growing creature in your home, then it's only natural that the one bearing all the responsibility will grow to resent not only them, but even the puppy. Even though we all know it's not the puppy's fault, we're only human, and we have to let our frustration out somehow. 

It's a tale that's not new to anyone - one partner wants a puppy, the other isn't ready but agrees anyway, and then the one that wants it expects the other to do all the work. Add on top of that they live in a tiny trailer, that she owns, and is being destroyed by his dog. We understand her exhaustion, her aggravation, and her overall feeling of defeat. We would too. But just because it's not a new theme, doesn't mean it still isn't worth the read. There are a lot of juicy details below, so don't miss out on this story that will leave you pawsitively satisfied.
