Navigating Pet Custody During Divorce","html":"","width":"100%","height":180,"duration":2275,"description":"Deciding who keeps the family pet can become one of the most difficult and emotional parts of a divorce. While the law often treats pets as property, anyone who's ever loved a dog knows they're so much more than that.\n\nIn this episode, Jaime sits down with certified dog behavior consultant, family mediator, and pet custody expert Karis Nafte to explore what actually serves a pet's best interests during separation. They discuss why shared custody isn't always the best solution, how pets experience stress during divorce, and the common mistakes couples make when emotions take over. Karis also shares ways to prevent future conflict, including why every pet owner should consider creating a \"pet-nup\" before problems arise.\n\nNeed help from Karis?
