I (30 yo female) and my (29 yo male) boyfriend got a dog last month. He has never had a dog before and wanted to get one for his 30th birthday. He went to get him and paid for him. We share responsibility with taking him potty, training, walks, getting up at night ect. And I even take him to work with me once a week to save on the cost of daycare. I have bought him toys, treats, ect. Since we share so much of the responsibility I call him "our dog" and he will say "no it's my dog, I paid for him and I pay the vet bills and for daycare." I told him it's our dog because I am putting in the dame amount of effort into raising him. But to him because I am not putting as much money into him, it doesn't count. I said maybe I shouldn't help anymore with him. He said he appreciated all I've done but he thought. I was doing that to be nice not to get to call him our dog. So am I the asshole?

TLDR: AITA for refusing to take care of his dog because he is insisting this is his dog not ours even though I have out time, effort,and money into taking care of him.
