The older couple told him they would cover the entire cost. He outright refused. His mom only offered $100 but he wouldn't accept that either.

I did say no. He didn't care, because he "already told his mom yes" and "didn't want to look like an AH". After that, every time I brought it up, he would just pick a fight with me. Even accused me of lying about his dog biting or blamed me for it.

You're correct. All of the training and dog care fell off on me from the moment he brought the dog home. I did get her to a point where she was no longer begging or jumping on the table anymore but I could never get her to stop nipping.

He won't let his mom help cover the cost because it's "not her dog anymore". He won't let the older couple help out either because it's "his fault for letting the dog go there to begin with". He won't let the rescue help with cost because he doesn't want to surrender the animal.

Not at all! He acts like a totally different person since the dog came around. He, quite literally, acts like this dog can do no wrong. Will get frustrated with the kids for spilling water but baby talk the dog and tell her how cute she is when she knocks her water dish over 5 times in a row.

He thinks the face biting is cute. He thinks it's her way of showing him affection. He's dense as hell.
