Ex is taking my baby girl

[jp2854]

I think you ex needs therapy. is there anyway you can get your vet to help you with this to make sure nothing goes wrong and you don't get accused of stuff that isn't true?? I mean you have been the one taking care of the dog etc. Can you get an restraining order so she can't step foot on your property or something like that so you don't have to deal with her?

SHE'S BACK!!!!

I got an email from her today after a year of no contact. I found out she got another GSD puppy from Germany with her new family too. She needs to let it go...

M***,

We are moving back to the area and I have received an injunction to obtain physical custody of Abbi. I need your address from you to make this an easier transition. If not I will obtain it from public record and proceed from there. Please reply by the end of next week. Thank you.

J****,

I intend to maintain legal ownership of Abbi. All her records and micro chip have been changed to my name and I have paid all expenses and provided all care since you left. You have made no attempt to see, pay expenses or check on her well being. Please let it go...

M***

Do you have actual paper back ups of all the expenses, care you've provided the dog? I'd start getting those together. I would get in touch with her asking her for her lawyers contact info so your lawyer can get in touch with him/her. I'd also include an itemized invoice of the above expenses you've mentioned saying that if this goes to court (which you are ready for) then you're including the invoice for her to pay since she feels so strongly that its her dog. Inform her that if you don't hear a response from her by COB (of 3 days from the date you send the letter) then you deem the issue dropped and that she doesn't wish to persue custody of the dog.

You should have told her Abbi died & you got another dog.

I have all paperwork and reciepts for Abbi since she was born in a 3 ring binder. All records, vet ownership and address was changed to my name when she left. She has made no contact or effort to check on the well being of Abbi. Why can't people just let things go....this is redicules.

What do local boarding kennels cost per day? $15? I'd go ahead and write up an invoice for $15 per day for each day you've had her. Tell her when she pays her boarding fee she can get the dog back. Two years times $15/day = $10,950.00.

I think I'd take the $10,950 and go by myself a new dog...I'm just sayin

Heck that's actually kind of cheap. Add in walks, at $5 a day, and play time, at $5 a day, and sleeping in a real bed has to be worth $10 a day...

Stick it to her! It's NOT her dog!!

Better yet; Tell her to G F herself. SLAM!

Isn't the old adage that possession is 9/10 of the law? I would send her a cease and desist letter, informing her that you do not want contact with her in any way, shape or form from this date forward. Inform her that any further contact will be through your attorney. When she realizes that contact will cost her money, she will change her mind., she doesn't want the dog, she just doesn't want you having it. It is not fair to the dog to be uprooted and she has no legal standing, in my opinion, because she a) abandoned the dog, b) has had no contact with the dog, c) has not participated in the expenses incurred from having the dog (to include feed, vets, licensing etc) d) this dog has been assimilated into your family, to include your children and it would be cruel and unusual punishment to have the dog taken from them. Then serve her with a no contact order for you, your wife and property. This is not to be construed as legal advice, consult an attorney if it means that much to her. I would not lie to her, just tell her to get bent, sue me for custody and I will see you in court. Being deployed, she could not have taken care of the dog anyway.

good luck,

Scott
