No Dogs, They're Offspring

Mere pets, nor show pieces tied to string, Nor are just our best friends, but offspring, The skirmish long did run Till custody war won, For dogs, times truly are a changing! ____________________________________________________ A couple got married a decade back; was childless with a pair of dogs. Marital discord cropping up they filed for divorce and fought for long for the custody of dogs. The case was settled recently: Rs three million as one-time settlement. The man retained custody of the dogs. It was perhaps the first case when pet dogs were equated with one's offspring! ______________________________________________________ Happenings | 07.01.17 |
