I Know My Dog Is My Best Friend

So, my newest problem is my dog coming between my relationship. Better yet, my relationship coming between my dog.
I haven’t been there for her how I should, she’s with my parents though so I know she’s in good hands.. however she won’t be able to stay there forever and I don’t want her to. I want her back home with me!
My boyfriend and I have been looking into houses, but unfortunately where we’re looking has hurricanes so we’d have to have separate cars to transport his cat and my dog Incase of an emergency. This had us discussing all the other issues as well, such as training costs for my dog, possible house repairs if she acts up, and the fact that he’s spending $400,000 for a house for a dog basically... yet it’s not for the dog, it’s for him. & he basically said my dog would have to stay in one room of the house at all times, but his cat gets the whole house.
It just doesn’t seem like it’s going to work, and my dog is my best friend.. I already feel like shit for leaving her the way I have now.. I just want what’s best for her and I think at this point that’s me moving back home, going back to school and getting my own life established so I can provide for her. Plus at least me and my boyfriend would be ending things on good terms and I could always have him as a friend. Am I making the right decision? My boyfriend should understand me not giving my dog up for him, right?

I have the same breed of dog. That dog's job is to keep you safe, and you simply can't deny it that, and indeed if the BF tries pushing it out...bad things will happen. And WTF is with the BF anyways when it comes to the dog. (Mine is sleeping on the bed beside me:) )
