Feeling guilty for having to give up a dog.

My relative that I live with spontaneously adopted a dog. We live in a tiny apartment and we both have full time commitments. This dog is energetic and used to live in a very large house with a yard and many people.

I’m upset. I had no say in it. My relative tearfully agreed it was an impulse buy to help with depression. However it’s a bit unfair because I undoubtedly would be taking care of the dog. Not only that, but our apartment doesn’t allow pets. What if our landlord drives by and sees me on the daily walk I’m forced to take him on? Also, this dog has a loneliness problem. He can’t be home alone because he will bark. so I’ve been stuck in the house for the 2 weeks he’s been here...

The dog is going to his new home tomorrow, but I feel so fucking bad. He used to live in a big nice home with kids, then he is with us, now he’s going to live with someone who lives alone.

This should have never happened and I feel slightly responsible, even though this isn’t my fault at all.
