I thought this about my first serious bf. I was in love with him, but he wasn't the right person for me at all. I cried for weeks and couldn't eat, but I got past the breakup and started the search for someone better for me. I've had many relationships since then and now happily married. You didn't give much info to go on, but if you are a good person, decent looking and employed, you'll always have options for dating.
To her, choosing not to have kids is no big deal. She is fully decided.
Sounds like that's not the future you want.
So you part ways.
Dating as an adult is more about finding someone you want to build a future with together than anything else. Music tastes, favorite movies, etc. Don't matter like they did as teenagers.
Adult dating is about having similar goals and values. Having compatible career paths and family plans. About financial goals and responsibilities.
Maybe your GF drinking is significant to your daughter/Ex…otherwise why would it have been mentioned?
It's a relatively non issue to drink a glass of wine.. but if it happens EVERY or almost every night… it may be something to your child. She wouldn't mentioned dad's GF ate a sandwich would she… so the alcohol means something to her.
Get him some books about training dogs, so that he knows about some standards. Have him read them before you talk about his dog specifically. This is important, I think youโre going to have to insist.
Let the guilt go with him. You are not living with an adult, never mind a partner. Imagine your future – it will literally stink with him. Say, “Goodbye”!
I just replied the the comment above this one regarding why we moved so quickly.
Also no, my daughter wasnt planned. I wasnt even actually with her mother. But finding out I was going to be a dad changed my life. I got clean and even enlisted in the military. When I lost her it quite nearly killed me.
For brevity i said “stole” but it was slightly less car-jacking and more family drama.
The car was promised to her and was in the mother's name. She paid for many expensive repairs to get the car back up and running (repairs cost more than the car is worth) and it drained her account to almost nothing.
The sister has the keys right now and simply refused to give them up. She only uses it to smoke in and has another vehicle for regular use.

You're 28, time to start taking some responsibility for your life's problems. You've been an adult for a decade. Stop blaming it all on mommy
My thoughts jumped to another woman who turned him down.
I would be very curious to see phone records, internet chats, or the actual phone.
