It is the last step after a long, protracted unhappy few months. Everything collected as a couple over a lifetime is divided up as one becomes two and they go their separate ways. But what about the dog? How is that going to work and how do you keep the dog’s best interest a priority?

Who gets the dog if we split?

At a time when dog ownership is growing and the way people see dogs in a family setting is getting more complex, so too is the need to consider dogs during divorce.

Legal disputes are on the rise over who will get the dog, and with dogs considered chattels, like furniture, in most jurisdictions, stories are rife of couples fighting in court, sometimes just to spite their ex-partner.

While some states in the US and in other parts of the world are changing the law so judges have leeway to consider the best interests of pets during a divorce, like they do children, it is not across the board.

But an emerging industry of mediators and Petnups has developed, to help couples negotiate who will get the dog. Pet custody specialist Karis Nafte is a mediator who helps people decide the best way forward for their dog and in this episode, she walks us through all the ins and outs of what to know for your dog, before, during and after a split.

About Karis Nafte, Pet Custody Specialist

Originally from the USA, Karis started working with dogs professionally in 1996. She has hugely varied background in animal work; puppy training, doggy daycare, obedience, behavior problems, dog sports, aggressive dogs, shelter work, and on set movie training with a variety of animal species. After recognizing the need for ‘dog centered mediation’ during divorce, Karis became an internationally accredited family mediator. After 26 years of experience and working with thousands of dogs, she combines her wealth of knowledge animal behavior with mediation to help her clients make the best decision for their dog’s long-term wellbeing during divorce. 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 needs. She collaborates with mediators and attorneys worldwide as well as offering regular webinars to educate divorce professionals about pets and divorce. In 2005 Karis moved 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 consultant, regularly appearing on TV and radio in South Africa. She is a judge for the South African Dog Agility Association, and a licensed animal wrangler for the film industry.

03/02/21 • 22 min

Dogs, work, life – it's all a balancing act. Meet some creative people who have found a way to blend it all together seamlessly.

Rob Sayegh Jr. Author and Children's Book Illustrator

Rob Sayegh Jr. plays as a way of life. He entertains his San Francisco neighbors with life-size window cartoons. He designs dog toys. He attracts parents of shelter dogs with his #AdoptADoodleProject dog portraits. And his new picture book, Love Tails, illustrates what's involved in dog greetings. (Hint: every dog has a tale to tell with their tail.)

Lulu, The 5 Million Dollar Border Collie

When Bill died, he left his Border Collie Lulu bereft, but not destitute. Not by a long shot. He earmarked $5 million dollars -- the bulk of his estate -- to his precious pup. That's enough to make us cock our heads and wonder: what does a dog do with so much money? And why don't more folks make provisions for the pets in their estate planning?

Kate Erickson, Entrepreneurs on Fire

Like many others, Kate and John expanded their family during the pandemic by adopting a dog. The entrepreneurs, thrilled with their new pup, had to find a way to keep him from disrupting work. As podcasters, it was a challenge -- but they came up with a solution. Kate Erickson joins us to share their unique formula for managing a home office and a bouncy puppy.

On today’s show, do dogs understand time and what is behind their internal clock? Then we take time out to celebrate the canine stars of the big screen with author and film journalist Wendy Mitchell.

Can dogs tell the time?

If you ever get the feeling your dog knows what time it is, you’re not alone. But without telling the time in the literal sense, how do they seemingly know when it’s time to eat, time to sleep or time to play fetch? The answer isn’t straight forward, in fact there’s more than one reason at play. We take a look at this phenomenon and some of the factors that could have you believing your dog is secretly wearing a watch.

Do dogs have a concept of time?

Dogs that know when their owners are coming home

Wendy Mitchell, Author of Citizen Canine: Dogs in the Movies

As a film industry insider and journalist, Wendy Mitchell has a unique perspective on the business. As a self-admitted dog obsessive, she finds herself watching movies "for the dogs." Those two viewpoints meet in her book about dogs on the silver screen, where she reveals everything canine about the movie industry. You won't believe what she has dug up!

When the pandemic ground the world to a halt, Emma was studying in France, an ocean and a continent away from her home. Returning to Oregon to be closer to her family, she did what many other Americans did that year: adopt a puppy.

Hope was a rescue from Texas: a sweet, traumatized Pitbull. Despite the pandemic restrictions’ and wildfire season’s best efforts, Emma and Hope formed a quick, intense bond.

Hope turned out to be Emma’s great love, and so she never considered leaving her behind when she was offered a place in Glasgow to continue her studies. But Hope was terribly afraid of loud noises, and would never get on a plane. What to do?

Perhaps a trip on the Queen Mary 2 was in order. It’s the only ship that carries animals across the Atlantic. But, wait: it turns out that Hope’s breed is banned in the UK!

How was this girl going to get this dog into that country? Emma turned to her mother, Lucy, for help, and the two of them planned a truly epic itinerary.

Today we hear their story, and talk to Dr Sam Gaines of the RSPCA about the Dangerous Dogs Act, which has prohibited Pitbull ownership in the UK since 1991.

Dog Edition - Why are Dogs so Loyal? | Dog Edition #70
play

11/01/22 • 27 min

Most of us think dogs are loyal to us humans because we provide them with creature comforts: food, shelter, belly rubs. But that’s not the full story.

Loyalty is deeply ingrained into canine DNA. Close bonds with humans were a crucial part of their evolution from wolves, and it’s one of the most prevalent features of dogs today.

In this episode, guests Dr. James Serpell, Professor Anne Burrows, and Amanda Matoske shed light on the science behind dog loyalty.

Spoiler alert: when a human gazes into a dog’s eyes, and the dog gazes back, both species release the same hormone: oxytocin. That’s the “cuddle hormone” or “love hormone” that forms deep bonds!

James and Clare also share stories of two of history’s most loyal dogs, Fido and Hachiko.

About James Serpell

James Serpell is professor Emeritus of Ethics and Animal Welfare at the School of Veterinary Medicine, University of Pennsylvania. He does research in anthrozoology and specializes in the behavior and welfare of companion animals.

About Anne Burrows

Anne Burrows is a biological anthropologist and professor at Duquesne University in Pittsburgh. She is an expert on the unique relationship between humans and dogs and regularly teaches a course on this subject.

About Amanda Matoske
