It happens more often than not, you’re in a relationship, but when breaking up, who ends up getting the dog? That’s what The Mike & Carla Morning Show was talking about this morning. Just needed to know how many others have gone through this? What happened? How did you work it out.

It was interesting to hear how couples that were breaking up handled this kind of thing. For the record, neither Mike O’Brian or Carla Rea have pets. So their interest in the topic was even more so, trying to understand the logistics of the who thing, However, Morty, the show’s executive producer, has a bulldog.

Morty even had a past relationship where the young lady got very close to “Squish”. But, there were lines during that relationship that Morty would not allow this woman to cross when it came to the pet. Lines that were very specific during and even after the breakup!

So when you do breakup, who does get the dog?

The M&C Morning Show even got some calls from those that did indeed work things out. It was all good, even after the breakup and everyone lived happily ever after. But it was one mother who called in to tell the story about her son’s “best friend”. He was in high school when they got the Fido and he dated the same girl all through high school. Yet, after the broke up and she moved, the animal clearly missed the girl

After about 6 months, the former sweetheart came back and the mom noticed how happy the dog was to see her. Not to the point where she gave the dog to the girl, but she would end up visiting the pet on other visits. Interesting that the young lady came back to see the dog and NOT the son!!!! Whatever right?

Well, it does happen…but it was also nice to get some legal advice in this matter. An attorney who handles such breakups called in to offer some good advice. All that and more included in the segment you can listen to below…and enjoy!

Where Nevada Ranks With Attacks By Wild Animals

Living out in the deserts, you have to wonder where Nevada ranks when it comes to people being attacked by wild animals. The Mike & Carla Morning Show started talking about this the other morning. All started with story about a young lady tubing on a river headed toward an alligator. First off, it’s good to know that the state of Nevada is not even in the Top 10!

According to a recent article put out by Outforia, there have been no recorded deaths of attacks by wild animals in the states of Delaware, North Dakota or Rhode Island. No reports over the past two decades! Not really sure where the Silver State ranks, but considering all the wild life, fatalities are very low.

The difference between Southern and Northern Nevada!

Of course living here in Southern Nevada, it’s a little different than what hikers see in Northern Nevada. Oh sure, we have the occasional coyote, even mountain lions have been spotted wondering around. The one huge difference might be the appearance of a black bear! However, encounters with these and other wild life end in death.

On the other hand, bears are listed at the top when it comes to attacks by wild animals. Followed by sharks, snakes, alligators and mountain lions. Okay, so Nevada does have three out the five animals listed, so the warning is just be careful!

With all this considered, you might be a little surprised by what states rank in the Top 5 when it comes to deadly attacks. The good news is that Nevada is ranked near the bottom of this list. Maybe because we all know and stay away from those animals that can do us the most harm!

The states that made the Top 10 might surprise you. States like New York, Pennsylvania, and Michigan…all in the Top 10! What states made the Top 5…just scroll down to see…and enjoy!

Top 5 States Where Wild Animals Attack

#5 TENNESSEE
Well, if you think about it, Tennessee is know for their mountain like country, so there is bound to be wild animals roaming around. With that thought in mind, the Volunteer State comes in at #5 on the list of most likely to be attacked by wild animals!
#4 NORTH CAROLINA
Not to be confused with their neighbors to the south. North Carolina is a surprise in the Top 5. But with that said, there has to be reasons as to why. So if you’re traveling their some time soon, just be careful! It’s #4 on the list!
#3 FLORIDA
The state of Florida comes in at #3. Not surprised at all. Sunshine, beaches, the ocean, lakes just means sharks, alligators and more! Florida does have a lot to offer, just be careful next time you’re down there!
#2 CALIFORNIA
It’s the same as Florida when it comes to wildlife, but add in the mountains of Northern California with black bears, mountain lions and more. No wonder this state is #2 on the list!
#1 TEXAS
This one was a but of a surprise. When it comes to wild animal attacks, Texas is #1? But when you look at the stats that over the past 20 years, close to 600 people have been killed by wild animals in Texas, it’s shocking. Especially when you see that California at #2 has only had less than 300. But, there ya go….so when you hit Texas, keep your head on a swival!
