Mamakitty - Think dog (or any pet) custody issues are relatively common. First heard of it re a puppy I sold to a professional couple...husband got custody with wife getting visitation...not sure the reasoning other than perhaps a shorter work day for husband. Much to my surprise, issue cropped up 20 years later in my own unexpected divorce. X asked for our dogs (like Jaiye, I was a show breeder and the dogs actually had asset value) and our horse and donkey. Sounds like your X may have a genuine interest in Adobe...for my X the request was merely a ploy...he thought I'd freak out so much at the very thought of loosing the animals that I'd cave on some other things. Happily the judge saw thru him and told him off properly! As others have noted, who purchased the dog and covered expense for him during the marriage are irrelevant; apparently what is important is who put the 'sweat equity' and emotional investment into the animal...care, training, vet trips etc. I also agree that the judge most likely won't take the dog away from your kids. Good luck!
