Even though you’ve been married for years, the relationship has come to an end. After dividing everything up, when getting divorced, who gets the dog? That’s the advice The Mike & Carla Morning Show were looking for when talking about friends that were going through the process. You split up everything and it’s all good, until you start talking about the dog you bought together.
To those that don’t have pets, it seems very petty to decide something like this, but for those that do, it’s serious! Who gets custody? Visitation rights? Can we plan visits with the dog together at the dog park? All the questions that come up when deciding on who gets Spot.
Even M&C Morning Show Executive Producer talked about his situation that got serious and the relationship the dog had with her. Morty was very protective, but the bottom line, Squish is MY dog…and always will be! He even said that he would put that in writing just to make sure.
If you want to keep the lines of communication open, but it’s best to be honest and if that means putting it in writing, then so be it! You have to keep in mind how serious and, more importantly, loving people are when it comes to their pets! When it’s time to split up and pets are involved, that tends to be the biggest issue. “Oh, you can have the couch, the bedroom furniture, but I get Whiskers!”
Those listening this morning texted in with great advice. Some listeners shared their own experiences when it came to their pets. One listener, despite the split, they were still friends and even though the pooch stayed with her, they both shared the animal…until another friend got involved. Isn’t the way it always is…everything is fine until someone else gets involved?
Listen to the segment from this morning and see if you can relate…and enjoy!
