I feel so guilty though - it's so good for children to grow up having pets and having a best friend. I am just lucky they didn't tell me to move out instead of the dog.

Lol! Don't feel guilty. It's not your fault.

Also keep in mind that teenagers go through phases and once girls arrive on the scene his priorities will change again.

It's not so that stepson can't have a pet, he just needs to decide which one he wants that fits in with the whole family.

Shame about the rats but they could be kept in a room your OH doesn't go into. I would work on your OH if i were you. Maybe gang up on him with stepson.
