getting real sick and tired of my roommate neglecting his dog and being rude

my roommate has a dog who has had fleas now for quite some time. he works, and hasn't got any sort of flea treatment for her. He has even asked my boyfriend to borrow his. He has the sort of mentality where he thinks he knows everything, and hes an awesome person, and an amazing dog owner, he's stubborn, and self righteous. his dog constantly gets into the garbage, she ate an onion this morning out of the garbage while i was walking my boyfriends dog. she isn't house trained she pees all over the floor, and my boyfriend has had to use our towels to clean it up, she jumps and whine. most annoying dog ever. I don't work right now, and I don't attend on going to school until November, but he seems to think that makes me a babysitter to his dog.

He can't even pay his 15 dollar internet bill on time and expects my boyfriend to leave the hydro in his name , because we are moving at the end of the month. He gives my boyfriend so much crap for everything. before it was "To get a job" he got one..and now hes still tearing into him about things. I guess the snarky little comments he makes really get under my skin, like i was cleaning once and i was like "YAY CLEAN STOVE" and hes like "..yeah .... things look better when their clean" in a really b-i-t-c-h-y tone of voice. and he like never cleans either. he gives us crap for staying in the room all of the time because we are both depressed and anxious people, but he's got a car, and when he is here he pretty much plays video games, and leaves his meat stains on the counter. (which is gross considering how me and my bf are both vegetarians)

my boyfriend is getting rid of his dog because of money issues, and because we won't have time for him. and our roommate starts tearing into him, trying to make it sound like he's abandoning his dog, and that that if he really wanted to he can take care of him, because i don't work, and we sit in the room all day. even though i start school in November, and my boyfriend does 12 hour shifts and they rotate. He also tried to give him crap for not taking his dog out enough even though when our roommate is here, and gets off work and his dog is all hyper because it wants to go out, he pretty has the " frig off" attitude to his dog instead of taking her out. I own no dogs, and It's not my responsibility to take care of his dog, I already take care of my boyfriends dog.

When I first moved in the first few months, he let his dog go outside on the back balcony , even though the landlord said that was not allowed, he let the dog poop pile, he wouldn't clean it up, and my boyfriend would have to go out there and clean it up himself because it was just so disgusting, then the neighbors started complaining because of the awful smell, and the landlord sent my boyfriend and him an email basically saying clean it up, and take your dogs outside. There is literally a bucket outside full of dog poop bags, and dirty poop water. The dog hair is endless, he doesn't comb/wash his dog so it just builds up in the hallways, and our clothes.

You can't even walk his dog because she will literally pull your arm out of your socket. she isn't trained at all. he has some crappy leash for her, for awhile he was using card board as a dog food bowl, because he was too lazy to go in the car and get one, or buy one even though the mice were eating her food. So i just threw it out. He doesn't listen he thinks he knows everything, and talking to him is like talking to a wall apparently. I think me talking to him would just make me more frustrated.

My friend told me I should call the SPCA on him, but i feel like that would just create a bunch of drama which I really don't need. but I feel bad for his dog. He doesn't beat her or starve her or anything, but she's still poorly taken care of. and then he has the balls to give my boyfriend crap about his dog even though he's giving him away even though it hurts to so he can have a better life and not be crammed in a tiny apartment anymore. It's just sad. and he wonders why we want to move. we have given him and the landlord notice and he's all p-i-s-s-y about it still pretty much like" the lease ain't over, you screwed me over i helped you move to this city " to my boyfriend. but this place is a dump. the walls are filthy, there's so much dog hair, the kitchen is white stained, and dirty, the water pressure is crap, it's just a run down disgusting apartment, there's mice, bugs in the bathroom, swarms of fruit flies, i don't know how anyone would want to live here. I want a brand new fresh start at a place.

Did I read correctly that you are planning on moving? I'd get the heck out of there, too, with no sense of guilt. And I would try as politely as you can to tell your roommate why. What a piece of work he is!

To me a pet is for life not just for Christmas. I would hope that anyone that takes on a pet should think about the responsibility that is involved.
It is not the dog that is a pain it is her owner. Unfortunately it seems your room mate is not going to change Maybe you could find the dog a better home since you now find it necessary to get rid of your pet too!!!
