The Los Angeles Daily Journal says that more and more pet custody cases are winding up in the courtroom. Skirmishing between divorced couples over their animals has reached these extremes: 1) A wife stole the family dog from her estranged husband, hid it at a friend's house and claimed it had run away 2) A man smeared meat on his hands so the dog would greet him and not his spouse---a tactic often used in the courtroom when a judge is trying to determine which human the animal prefers. The Daily Journal said that couples about to be married are increasingly signing agreements that stipulate who gets the pet in the event of a divorce. The agreements are called "pre-pup-tials."
