Am I the asshole for yelling at my roommate, because she forced my dog live in its own filth?

My boyfriend and I went out of town, like we usually do over the weekends. Now, we do have 2 chickens, 2 ducks, 2 cats, and a brand new adult Alaskan Malamute. However, on the weekends, we don't participate in animal chores because my roommate works from 9am to 9pm, which means she walk and feed the dog in the morning, then then just do it again when she comes home.

So we were driving back from our trip Saturday night (meaning we weren't even gone a full 24 hours this time, so she DEFINITELY didn't have an excuse), when we got a call around 10pm. She said that the dog urinated on the floor, and asked what cleaning supplies we wanted her to use to clean it up. My boyfriend and I told her not to worry about it because we were only around the corner and we could take care of it when we got home. So when we got home 40 minutes later, my boyfriend realized that he forgot his house keys inside which was really embarrassing since we actually had brought guests home for a little party/sleepover. We went around the house to where her bedroom window is, and pounded on the window until she got up. She eventually dragged her lazy self out of bed, let us in, and then tried to hide back into her room.

I said "tried", because I realized that she had allowed to the dog to s*** all over the floor and not clean it up. Y'all… I was furious. I didn't even care that we brought friends over, I yelled at her for being so disgusting and letting my poor pup live in its own filth. She tried saying that the poop "wasn't there" when she got home and my puppy "must have done it while she was asleep" but that's obviously a lie. 1) Who falls asleep in 40 minutes? There's literally no way she didn't know our puppy did that. 2) How can a dog pee, AND THEN poop within 40 minutes? No, I know dogs,and when they have to go they do both businesses at the same time. THEN I come to find out that she never walked my dog the entire day, and tried to pretend that she didn't know we were out of the state. Like?? She literally saw my boyfriend's car was gone when she left for work, she should have figured out what happened?

Anyways she told me this was why she didn't want another animal in the house in the first place, and then slammed her door with was so humiliating that she did that in front of our friends. Whether or not she wanted the dog there is irrelevant, especially when she is subletting from MY boyfriend. NOW, she has the NERVE to tell us she will be moving out at the end of the month and will not be at least helping out with next month's rent OR electricity.

How do I fix the situation and help her realize that she is an animal abuser, and convince her to at least stay a few more months?
