Do Dogs Need Visitation After a Divorce?Listener favorite Karis Nafte is back! In this episode, she's talking to Seth and Pete about the challenges of sorting out visitation when it comes to the family pet. Some dogs can handle it, others cant. There's also the factor of how much excitement the ex brings every time they visit. Are they playing ‘Disney Dad' but with the dog? That can lead to stress and anxiety in your dog. How about different breeds? Different ages? What about mixes? We dig into a lot of factors that could affect how well your canine handles visitation rights. The bottom line, however? You really have to think about what's best for the dog which usually is letting it stay with just one person.About KarisBorn in Oregon, Karis started training dogs professionally in 1996. Where, in addition to teaching puppy and obedience classes she worked at the very first doggy daycare in Portland.  She has hugely varied background in professional animal work; obedience, agility, aggressive dogs, shelter work, flyball, and movie work with animals.In 2005 Karis came to South Africa on a vacation, fell in love with the country, and decided to stay put. She lives there with her husband, daughter, 3 cats and 4 dogs. Known for her humane and effective training and behavior solutions, Karis is a nationally known and well-respected dog behavior expert, regularly appearing on TV and radio interviews.  Her training school, Happy Dogs, offers 60 plus classes per month.  She is a judge for the South African Dog Agility Association, and a licensed animal wrangler for the film industry.After recognizing the need for ‘dog centered mediation' during divorce, Karis became an internationally accredited family mediator. Now, she combines her wealth of experience of dogs and family pets with mediation to help her clients make the best decision for their dog's long-term wellbeing. Her goal is to help her clients see the dogs not as weapons or leverage against their ex, nor as human children, but as the individuals they are with their own doggy needs. She collaborates with mediators and attorneys worldwide as well as offering regular webinars to educate divorce professionals about pets and divorce. Links & NotesWho Keeps the Dog?Karis on LinkedIn, Instagram, and FacebookSchedule a consult with SethGot a question you want to ask on the show?

Divorce is a tough time for everyone, including our wonderful companion animals. Many people don't think about what happens to a beloved pet if the other spouse wants the animal, and you do too. Custody of pets is something that comes up often. Still, no one talks about who gets the dog or cat in a divorce in Illinois or about pet custody laws. Recently, pet ownership and divorce are becoming more recognized in courts nationwide, with new laws and approaches being implemented to handle specific issues. Divorce with pets can be complicated, but it's worth knowing your rights to plan for your pet and ensure they are appropriately taken care of.

Pet custody is real and something to think about and plan for if you're going through a separation or divorce. Susan and Tracy talk about what to consider, what to be prepared for, and their best practices for pet custody situations.

My good friend and colleague, Karis Nafte, returns to "Why Do Pets Matter?" this week. She is a certified dog behavior consultant and a mediator. Karis is the BEST pet custody specialist you could ever hope to work with if you have pets and are getting divorced.   We work very closely together because we both understand that divorcing with pets is an emotional experience that often needs assistance to navigate through.    Today, we are taking a look at three common speed bumps couples often hit when divorcing with animals:   1. Humanizing the animal 2. Weaponizing the animal 3. Bargaining with the animal   About Karis Nafte:  Animals are not possessions, nor are they children. They fall into their own unique category that requires a delicate and considered approach when it comes to the issue of custody. For couples who are divorcing and have pets, Karis provides a specialized service offering expert guidance about custody decisions for their dogs, cats, and other companion animals.   Karis brings twenty-five years of experience as a professional animal behaviorist; she provides a neutral, supportive position between the separating couple while keeping the animal's perspective in the forefront. Even for couples working amicably through their divorce, the emotional component surrounding beloved pets can complicate matters.   To learn more about Karis and the work she does, please visit  https://whokeepsthedog.com/, and listen to her first interview on "Why Do Pets Matter?"    You can also find her on:  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/karisnafte/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Karis-Nafte-The-Pet-Custody-Consultant-101736361429277/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/karis-nafte-b4b9b81a6/

Alaska is the Unlikely Adopter of New Pet Custody Laws For the first time, a state has specifically said that a companion animal has visibility in a divorce proceeding beyond that of property and that the court may award custody on the basis of what is best for the dog, not the human owners. In a first, Alaska divorce courts will now treat pets more like children even though, in the eyes of the law, animals are considered property. It makes Alaska the first state in the country to require courts to take "into consideration the well-being of the animal" and to explicitly empower judges to assign joint custody of pets. Listen Now Dog Dies, 5 Others Sickened from Pentobarbital in Pet Food At least five dogs have been sickened and one has died after eating canned dog food. The reason is a barbiturate, Pentobarbital, has been found in one lot of the food. The manufacturer is recalling five lots of 12-ounce cans of dog food which were distributed in 15 states. Pentobarbital is frequently used to euthanize dogs and cats, which calls into question what the beef protein really was. Listen Now Germany Taxes Dog Owners In Germany, there's a legal difference between pet owners. Dog-owners are taxed for their pet, while cat-owners currently aren't, though some say that should change. An estimated 13 million cats call Germany home and that doesn't include stray cats. German officials say those policies help prevent shelters from being overrun and allow them to stick to a 'no-kill policy.' Listen Now Why is Dental Health So Important to Your Pet? Your pet's dental health is a key factor in controlling fatal organ failure. Unlike humans, infected gums can lead to bigger problems than bad breath.

February is National Pet Dental Health Month and we have tips and tricks to help your pet live a long healthy life. One of the tricks is to avoid anesthesia free dental cleanings, because they don't work and could actually cause problems. Listen Now Read more about this week's show.

Hosts Peter Sankoff and Camille Labchuk give you all the details on a groundbreaking new pet custody case from the Newfoundland & Labrador Court of Appeal. In Baker v Harmina, a young former couple fought over who would get custody of Mya, a Bernese mountain dog-poodle mix. Mr. Baker was awarded full custody, based on the conception that the only thing that matters is who bought Mya. But a dissenting judge disagreed, and would have given the two joint custody, stating that "ownership of a dog is more complicated to decide than, say, a car, or a piece of furniture."

Pets are an integral part of daily life for many families. They're often seen and treated as family members. So when it comes to divorce, deciding what happens to the pets can be every bit as contentious as deciding how to co-parent together.While couples may want to create a plan for sharing, in the vast majority of places in the U.S. the law still treats pets as property. That means if you can't come to your own agreement, then a judge will decide what happens to the pets following the same rules that apply to other property such as a car, a lawn mower or artwork.This becomes an even harder challenge when there are children involved who see the pets as theirs and want the pets to follow the same co-parenting schedule as them, moving between two homes.And, of course, because this is divorce, there's fear and hurt feelings and pets do get used as leverage in negotiations, manipulation, and power and control.Ugh. So what do you need to know so you can craft the agreement that a judge can't?Joining Mandy for this Conversation is attorney Jessica Leischner from the Washington D.C. law firm of Wade, Grimes, Friedman. Meinken and Leischner. Visit their website to download their free divorce guides covering topics such as mediation, collaborative divorce and divorce for members of the military.You'll find a synopsis of this Conversation at Mandy's blog, Since My Divorce.

Anyone with a pet understands that people become emotionally attached to their animals and that bond can as strong as the bond we make with human friends.Yet, the law, for the most part sees pets as property,  to be divided as the household furniture is to be divided.That sets the stage for lose-win settlements. Judges, even those who have pets and can empathize with divorcing parties, are bound by the law. Ordering arrangements that recognize and take into account the emotional attachments of both parties could get them into trouble. So one party typically gets the pet and other doesn’t. That’s a win-lose.Far better, for the parties, and probably the pets, to work out an arrangement without going to court. And you can be very creative!Mandy’s guest for this Conversation is Chicago-based attorney, mediator and educator Karen Covy. Karen has handled a number of pet custody situations and shares her tips on how to avoid the win-lose option.Karen offers a Divorce Tool Kit that includes a divorce document checklist, parenting plan provisions, budget worksheets and more.
