My son won’t do this as he’s using the dog as a weapon if I don’t do what he’s asking he will take the dog!
I understand your concern about the situation involving your son and the dog. Could you clarify if you are the legal owner of the dog? This will help me provide more accurate legal information regarding ownership rights and potential steps you can take.
No he is but I pay for everything and look after him
Thank you for clarifying. In England, legal ownership of a dog typically depends on who is registered as the owner with a microchip database or who purchased the dog. Paying for care or expenses does not automatically transfer ownership.
Would you like guidance on resolving this dispute or exploring legal options?
