No. When a couple have a pet, often both come to love the pet almost as they would a child. When they separate, they don't lose that love for the pet. It is fairly common for ex-spouses or ex-lovers to share custody of a child or of a pet. If they have a reasonably friendly relationship following the break-up, the sharing of the pet should not interfere with their social lives.

  • As long as your boyfriend is true to you then there should be no problem with your boyfriend sharing a dog with his ex. When people get pets often the two people (as a couple) get attached to the dog. There is no reason you cannot go with him to pick up the dog and go for walks together. You could sit in the car while he picks the dog up. Perhaps you could suggest getting another dog if they allow pets where he lives now.

Is it criminal to split up with a boyfriend and one person takes the family pet and the boyfriend wants the dog?

If you got the dog together then it belongs to both of you. It is similar to custody of children. You should alternate weeks having the family pet stay at your place one week and the next week at your boyfriends. If he had the dog first then it is his; if you brought the dog with if you moved in with him then it is yours. If it truly is your dog and he refuses to let you have the dog you can often have a police officer go with you to your ex boyfriend's home and get the dog. Try getting in touch with your ex boyfriend and meet somewhere and let him know the mature way is to share the family pet. Sometimes it is not about children or the family pet, but the immature antics of two hurt people over a break up trying to hurt each other. The important thing is where children or a family pet would be the happiest.
