Pet custody cases are on the rise in Canada as judges decide who gets the dog or cat after a divorce. Watch W5's 'Dog Fight' on CTV, Saturday at 7 p.m.
Working from home meant we finally had time to take care of a new puppy. She’s a Japanese breed known as a Shiba Inu so it seemed only fitting that she have a name from her country of origin.
We weren’t the only ones who got a pandemic pet. By 2022, the total number of cats and dogs keeping Canadians company hit over 16 million.But there’s something else many couples did during the pandemic. Break up. “It's a really intense emotional fight, just like fighting over kids. And I would say maybe even more sometimes,” Breder said.Breder warns that in some ways fighting over a pet is harder than fighting over the kids. That’s because when it comes to companion animals, Canadian law is open to interpretation.“The overall law in Canada when it comes to how the law treats companion animals in pet custody disputes is… animals are property. They're considered like a chair, like furniture.
The document is like a prenup, except this is for a pet. Couples who sign, promise to"put aside their personal interests," and do what's in"the best interests of the animal," if they break up.While Gaillard says their petnup has never been tested in court, it’s a legal document that she says should hold up.
