That is so weird. Not only were you not "so wrong", I can't find one single solitary aspect of that little exchange that even gave you the opportunity to be wrong. How can a sick dog or your understandable and reasonable concern for it lead to such an outburst on his part? It sounds like his anger, frustration, etc. must stem from something else and have been completely displaced here. Even so, his behavior was so over the top insensitive that I wonder if he acts like this often. Is he usually kind to you? Or is he generally a pretty miserable bugger?
Talk about over-reaction--all you did was ask him a question.
I agree with the other posters: that was a major display of self-absorption and insensitivity on his part. Your dog is old and becoming fragile with age. Does she LIKE traipsing off to your boyfriend's house all the time? Based on your boyfriend's behavior, I would say she is more entitled to your consideration than he is.
Sounds like a self absorbed idiot to me.  If you really must continue seeing him, do not do so until he calls you with a heartfelt apology.   In the meantime, do not contact him. Â
Having said that, given his attitude (unreasonably irritable, doesn't like staying at your house), I wouldn't be holding my breath for him to contact you at all.  Good riddance to bad rubbish.
