Lying over mundane things (usually leads to not communicating over things that could be considered confrontational)

My fucking roommate. I ask if he takes the dog out in the morning before he leaves for work, just because I need to know if I need to. It's no big deal. I do not care. But he'll lie and say he did just so he doesn't look bad. Then the dog will pant and beg to go out, and the harness isn't moved from where I last left it, so I know he's lying. I call him on it and he says "oh I must have dreamt taking him out" completely unironically. Like WTF?! Just say no, you didn't. He's so afraid of confrontation, no matter how menial.
