AITA to get angry at my husband for cleaning poop that most likely didn’t belong to our dogs (or dogs in general).

Me and my husband on our 10th year anniversary of us being together got into a taxi proceeding of a full day of arguing got into a cab with 3 dogs. My husband and I continued arguing in the taxi and suddenly he felt shit smell and texted me that one of the dogs did its businness in the back of the cab. He ran away leaving me with the shit saying that I need to deal with it after he was interrogating the source of the smell (so the taxi guy knew there is something suspicious 😒). So I told the driver that we might have had an accident so I came back home to get some cleaning supplies and money (25$ – 100 polish zlotys) to settle the situation. I realized the shit might have been a source of a prior poop accident since it was smeared and definitely looked like someone had it on their shoe. When I payed the guy my husband told me that I didn’t pay enough after cleaning someone elses shit most likely but who knows I am not a professional poop investigator. Was I in the right to be mad at him and leave my husband alone in the house after he made me clean probably someone elses shit on our 10th year anniversary as my only gift of the day?

    1. Someone providing currency numbers in polish zlotys likely does not speak English as a first language, so maybe we tone down these comments some?

  1. ESH if you have dogs that even remotely could be under suspicion for shitting in a vehicle… don’t bring them in a cab.

  2. NTA I think.

    If I read it right, you guys got in a cab with dogs. Either the dogs shit in the cab or you/ hubbie brought it in on a shoe bottom. After talking loudly about it so the cabbie hears, your husband leaves you take care of the mess and the cabbie. Your husband is an AH for leaving you to deal with the mess alone. 

    Info: WHY bring dogs in a cab?!? Is your husband always thoughtless about making you do all the adulting? Is this the last thing in a long line of issues??

    Maybe take a sabbatical from your marriage and see if you are happier without him.

  3. I’m so confused. You and your husband were arguing, then you both got into a cab with three dogs (your dogs?), then after a few minutes your husband felt and/or smelled poop? And instead of speaking to each other (you were sitting right next to each other), you texted each other? And then he got out of the cab, and you took the cab home and cleaned up the mess? Is that right? There are a lot of questions to be answered here, but why on earth does your husband think the poop was there before you got into the cab?

    This whole story ….. stinks….
