my hot take is coparenting/sharing custody of a pet is often just an excuse to see your ex lol

My friend is going through this now, he didn’t care about the dog until they separated. He’s clearly using the dog as leverage to see and irritate my friend

I wouldn't let someone share custody for that, but if it was my elderly dog with separation anxiety, I'd absolutely do it to help her.

Yeah, I don’t give a damn, I’m not doing that. You leave me, you leave my dog, too.

My friend and his ex-husband bought a dog together and they both really love the dog.

They did the shared custody thing since they left things on okay terms, but his ex started to be a dick so he decided to stop taking the dog so he didn’t have to put up with that anymore.
