uMannoSlimmins Havin a bad day ? Well , year I guess , heading into 2017 onwards now . <| sep |> I take it you use uneddit ? <| sep |> Looks like where closing in on a dictatorship . Saddle up lads , it ' s going to be a smooth transition and hardly noticeable apart from those subtle niggles that happen . But don ' t worry , it will soon become the norm . Hail May ! <| sep |> The one in the bottom middle isn ' t on a gym . rquityourbullshits <| sep |> This is actually a very interesting article <| sep |> IGN LifeShroomDeposited Spearow , M , 12 Requesting LunalaMessage I want to fill my pokedexThanks ! <| sep |> You want to share custody of the dogs without having to see each other all the time ? Yeah , sorry but this is not going to be practical . One person having to say goodbye to an animal they love very much is one of the shittiest things about breakups , but unfortunately there ' s nothing much you can do about it . Your options are basically either to split the dogs up and let him keep one of them which will still be shitty because it will mean everyone is a bit miserable , at least for a while , the dogs miss each other and each of you miss the dog you didn ' t get to keep or just keep the dogs , since they are yours , and cut contact and not try to string this out by trying to arrange some custody arrangement that ' s not going to work and will probably just create more difficulty and pain for both of you , and ultimately not work out in the end anyway . Even in the most amicable of breakups , this would be very difficult to do practically , you would have to constantly coordinate with each other regarding dropping off and picking up the dogs , and making decisions about thing like vet care and sharing bills for food and other necessitates . You ' d have to keep each other informed regarding your plans for vacations or moving house and other life decisions that impact the dogs . It would be a challenge for all of the same reasons that coparenting kids after a breakup is a challenge . But at least with kids there ' s a court that can enforce custody plans if communication between the parties breaks down . And in this case , since you don ' t even want to see each other it ' s obviously not the most amicable of situations , which would make this even harder . There ' s really no way you can continue to share the dogs without remaining entwined in each others ' lives , which you obviously don ' t want , that ' s why you are breaking up after all , and doing so will just make it harder and messier and ultimately more painful for both of you to move on . It will also create issues down the track with new partners , most new boyfriendsgirlfriends are not going to be that understanding of you sharing custody of dogs with an ex , and as a result that person being regularly present in your life and your house . And lastly this arrangement would be quite disruptive to the dogs and not necessarily in their best interests . Dogs need stability and routine and not to constantly be shuttled between different homes , and you can ' t explain to them what ' s going on like you can to kids . I ' m sorry if this is not the answer you wanted , but that ' s reality . And yes it ' s going to suck for your ex to have to walk away from these dogs , but it ' s one of those things that just can ' t be helped , and trying to string things out will only make it worse for everyone involved . Sometimes there ' s just no magic bullet to make everything work out neatly , and this is one of those times .
