The marriage of family law and animal rights: How should Australian family law approach the rise of ‘pet custody’ disputes?
Tony Bogdanoski
Alternative Law Journal
Volume 31, Number 4, December 2006

LAW JOURNAL / LAW REVIEW

This article examines the problem of ‘pet custody’, an issue arguably at the forefront of recent international developments in family law, especially in North America. Family pets enjoy a complicated position under Australian family law. On the one hand, their welfare is protected by state animal protection laws. On the other hand, they are inconsistently treated as mere chattels by the family law system when it comes to the disposition of assets following relationship breakdown. It is submitted that the interests of companion animals, and those of their human guardians, would be better served by removing this inconsistency, but not on the basis of a blanket implementation of a ‘best interests’ model analogous to that used in the resolution of partenting disputes.
