Divorced man ordered to pay dog maintenance

[Cass]

A court in Italy has ordered a man to pay maintenance to his divorced wife for their pet dog.

The woman, not been named for legal reasons, took her former husband to court in the north-eastern town of Udine after he refused to give money towards her canine expenses.

She said: "He has to pay maintenance for our two children, so why shouldn't he pay for the care of our dog Pepi, which we bought together.

"With food and vet bills a dog can cost almost as much as a child to raise."

Judge Enrico Cavalieri ruled in favour of the woman and ordered her estranged husband to pay several hundred pounds a year for the dog.

that is awesome. i know too many single mothers that were left with nothing. the husbands just thought that they could pick up and leave everything behind... including the bills... i am glad that someone stood up for the bills that they both went in half together when they got married and all the decisons that were made during that union.
