Can someone elaborate on why 19,000 dhs is not livable in dubai even if accomodation is paid for. please.

19,000 dhs is around £4000 a month right?

Whether it's 4 grand or not doesn't matter , your living costs are in AED . I paid 48 AED for a pint the other day but it was 48AED not 11 quid .

19K is not enough , might be enough for the dog.
