ItsOver: “Back in my day, custody of Charlie was met with its fair share of skepticism. Today, we get not one but two pet-custody story lines on Vanderpump Rules.” Read an essay on the downfalls of shared pet custody
When I got married, I finally understood what unconditional love was — thanks to my bulldog. I was hopelessly devoted to that chubby, wrinkly pup since we brought him home a month after our wedding. Everything Charlie did delighted me: his butt wiggles, the way he skidded across the kitchen to inhale crumbles on the floor, his insistence on gnawing the walls of our apartment. The same could not be said of my relationship with my husband.
Reaching the agreement itself didn’t prove stressful for me. Most shared-custody agreements are negotiated without a judge’s intervention, though that doesn’t necessarily mean the process goes smoothly.
There are ways to mitigate this, according to Dr. Paola Cuevas, a veterinarian and behaviorist consultant for Hepper, a pet-furniture company. “Consistency is the No. 1 best practice to remember,” she says. “Animals need a sense of security and expectations for their behavior.” This means being on the same page about house rules, walking schedules, and feeding — easy enough until you realize you’re talking about couples with irreconcilable differences.
