Today's Question:

I'm going through a divorce, and my ex and I are in disagreement about who gets to keep our dog. We both love him very much, but I'm not sure how a court decides custody of a pet. My ex is taking the position that the dog is her dog and it’s not up for discussion. What will a court do?
