All vet statements i paid for with cash, so no real paper trail there.

And as for all the paperwork from the breeder to us, well im pretty sure she is hiding that quite well, if its even around anymore. But it probably has both our names on it, silly mistake. lol

Your dog would be chipped or tattooed, or both, at the vet, not by the city. I'd call your vet and ask for receipts. They'll have a record of your puppies visits regardless of your method of payment.

So sorry to hear about your puppy!
Hopefully you can get him back.

Give her a bit to cool off, and apologize (even if she's at fault), but tell her that you want to work things out in a sensible way, to make things the easiest for the both of you.

Common law applies after 6 month of living together, but sometimes isn't official until taxes are filed together.

We're a younger couple too, and that can make things easier or more difficult, so just try and take things slow, stay calm in the process, and hope for the best.

=) Best of luck.

So good news,
after an hour on the phone ive made her realize that i would give the dog a better life, and that is what is most important.

Im picking him up around 11 tonight.....
as for the underwear...that remains to be seen......

Thanks guys, its been great to read your replies.

Yay! I'm so happy to read this. First things first, tomorrow you get the registration changed over at the city of Calgary. Do the same thing with your vet, and if you have pet insurance.

Photos of your puppy when you get it home?

sooo what about THE FISH TANK???????

seriously though, even if you want to give her some more time that is not always the best thing to do. I would at least talk to the police and explain the situation to them.. I had to have a police escort to recover some of my stuff when a simular situation happened.. I waited on the sidewalk, the police made sure there was going to be no trouble and took her aside and the other officer followed me to get my stuff.

ask the police about the dog.. ask them what they would concider proof that it is your dog and then go get the proof.. and you won't have a problem getting your stuff back.. this isn't a lawyer thing just a civel dispute ... cop stuff.

anyways I didn't read the last couple posts so sounds like it is working for ya.

Fish tank is waiting to be set up. I recently purchased a 90g set-up from "blom" on here. The hunt for a new place begins tomorrow, then the process of starting the new tank and life ensues

Where does this "common law is 6 months" come from? According to this site, division of property in Alberta does not qualify until 3 yrs.

the only thing for the 6 months is the minimum you can live togeather for befor delairing common law status.. only way faster is to have a kid. but this doesn't mean you are common law only that you are eligible to claim it.. and 6 months is federal.. in BC it is 1 year.

still up for coffee tomorrow night?
