Our boys are registered in both of our names, and if we were to split up there would be absolute ructions squabbling over custody of them, in fact we'd probably come to blows! So we would just have to stay together for the sake of the dogs

No kids so end of the day if divorce was an issue , the dogs are registered in my name end of story LOL

Even though me n Joe have split he still comes to see the dogs a few times a week, and they are such traitors apart from poppy who guards me and wont go to him..Buddy goes ballistic and barks for about an hour cos he's a daddys boy!!Id never stop him seeing them cos he loves them to bits but they cant stay wiv him at bis flat and i bought them so i have them full time!!

Abby is mine I bought her Im the registered keeper I feed, walk and do everything with her OH isnt a pet person but we are working on him I have finally got him to agree to another puppy a fish tank and a snake not bad for someone who doesnt like pets.

Tried that one too, but the little sods wouldn't go

Me having the dogs wasn't an issue. My ex can just about looks after himself, let alone the dogs. As for coping, I can cope with the dogs a thousand times better than I can cope with the kids

I'm glad my dogs were only in my name when we split.
I don't think he would want them really but he would of tried just to spite me.

So would I....

Well Cassy is registered under my name and micro-chip has my name on it, when we took Kip back from the C & D home I was the one put down on her forms & microchip. Both dogs are insured under my name too and I have the advantage of being the homeowner so if we split up Kyle would have to leave and it would be difficult to rent somewhere with two dogs also I dont think he would have the time to look after them properly It's a sad thought, hopefully we never get to that stage though lol. If he tried to take them I think I would have to shoot him

my sentiments exactly!!!!

I like what Lel wrote would give the kids up before the dogs LOL LOL. I am happily married but if i did spilt up i would,nt let my husband have my dogs there is just no way they are mine.
