Being a pet owner, be it a dog, cat, or small animal is a lovely thing. Owning a dog is a big responsibility, and many people don’t realize that they are responsible for the everyday activities their dogs engage in, especially outside their homes.

Most dogs are friendly, loving members of the family, but even normally docile dogs may bite, eat, or damage something belonging to their owners, or even worse, things belonging to others. This is the exact scenario a Redditor, u/Cold-Profesion6586, found himself in after his roommate’s girlfriend’s dog damaged his Nintendo Switch card.

The roommate’s girlfriend visited with her little dog, which literally ate the whole switch card and damaged it. The original poster was really dissatisfied with this because it cost him 60 dollars to get it.

Sadly, the roommate and the girlfriend didn’t show much concern for the dog’s actions, even though they noticed the original poster was dissatisfied. We have compiled snapshots from the original post for you to read how the entire story unfolded, leading to the original poster having the switch card replaced.

Redditors who commented on this story were quite unanimous in their opinions. Scroll down to read more about their reactions to this story.

It’s a wonderful thing to have a furry friend around, even when we go visit others outside our homes. Even though our furry buddies are calm individuals, sometimes they can behave a little weirdly, especially when we aren’t watching them, and such actions come at an expense.
