I work with a work colleague on a one to one basis however I think she’s lied to me about having 2 dogs (she does have 1) as well as to various other work colleagues.

By far the most shocking thing I’ve read on MN today. I will need to sit down now.

LTB

💯 no other option really

Start hounding her for answers OP

Owly11 · 17/04/2026 21:51

Oh my goodness. I usually take people at face value but in this case the evidence is absolutely overwhelming. She's definitely lying otherwise why would she say she had two dogs?

VeraWang · 17/04/2026 21:50

I think the OP may be barking up the wrong tree here?

whatthesigma · 17/04/2026 21:50

TLDR.

B1anche · 17/04/2026 21:48

She's definitely lying. I've never heard of anyone having more than one dog.

CottageGate · 17/04/2026 21:45

Are you sure you work with her on a one to one basis?

SimonWigglesBaratoneVoice · 17/04/2026 21:44

What a bitch, I have 26 dogs and I hate people who lie about how many dogs they have.

TikTokker · 17/04/2026 21:44

Sounds legit to me

TemporarilyCantDoMyself · 17/04/2026 21:44

It's a dog eat dog world @Sam155320 .
So ya know, maybe dog 1 ate dog 2? So she's still technically got 2 dogs, but one is inside the other?

Obliv · 17/04/2026 21:44

Maybe she has double vision? Best get her referred to Occy Health

VeraWang · 17/04/2026 21:43

Don't become friends with this colleague OP.

You don't want a liar as your Chum or your PAL.

TheWonderhorse · 17/04/2026 21:43

Oh come on OP, having an imaginary second dog is much better than having a real one.

don make Dalmatian joke… don’t make Dalmatian joke …

She would if the internet wasn’t spotty

Damn… couldn’t keep it in

Ultraalox · 17/04/2026 21:42

Anything is paws-ible

Tuuuuune · 17/04/2026 21:41

Hobbes8 · 17/04/2026 21:35

Based on the info given, I think you're right. She's definitely lying.

Absolutely, it’s blatant.

XenoBitch · 17/04/2026 21:41

This is just... odd.

Nonononomaybe · 17/04/2026 21:40

I would log with 101 asap.

RockyRoadTastesGood · 17/04/2026 21:40

She probably runs an illegal puppy farm. You can’t trust her. Report her to 111 and RSPCA. She’s probably autistic or ADHD too so also report her to social services.

VeraWang · 17/04/2026 21:40

You need to hound her for the truth OP.

Nofeckingway · 17/04/2026 21:40

What a fucking bitch ( or not as maybe only one male dog - apparently) 🐶

finsberry · 17/04/2026 21:40

Why would anyone lie about this?

thebrollachan · 17/04/2026 21:39

Is one of her dogs two guinea pigs in a trench coat?
