Our hounds have been establishing stronger and stronger relationships with their owners, Im sure custody is going to be a growing issue. Veterinarians are seeing the dollars spent on dog health dramatically increase.

Custoday is one thing, visitation rights might be going a bit overboard. Too sad. Thanks for posting though!

@Wild Dingo I'm glad your friends were able to work out a friendly resolution among themselves regarding sharing their dog. That is really a healthy approach. I suspect that a lot of couples do that. In fact, we have a friend whose former girlfriend left her three cats with him (and his two cats) when she moved out. AND, she paid "cat support"! Something a court would never order. In any event, in light of the difference between the way we animal lovers view our furry family members and the way the law views them, people might think of staying together for the sake of their critters.

I have a friend who got an aussie after getting married. they got it from a breeder together. they divorced 2 years later, but settled amicably and share the dog. seriously. they take turns with the dog every few weeks. thankfully it was amicable. dog loves both parents. each one does different activities with her. I was shocked that this could even be an option or that divorced couples would be this amicable. but they love the dog so much and the dog is really quite attached to both, so they did the best thing for her.

When we first got married, Mr. Wild Dingo owned Maggie, the dingo for which my company is named. She was a “naughty” dog. Very naughty and the running joke in our “mock” arguments was “If we get divorced YOU get the dingo” (meaning we’d wish that PIA on the other person)… Then Maggie and I went to obedience school. and what do you know? she became a model citizen. so much so that young children would LOVE to pet the dingo over fuzzy goldens and soft toy dogs. Maggie also got extremely attached to me. The running joke after that in our “mock” arguments was “If we get divorced “I” get the dingo!” Thankfully, we are not nor planning divorce. And our arguement for L& J is the same as the last argument we used for the dingo. We both want them. Guess we need to stay married! It’s a good execuse as any!
Great story Frankie!
