From the NY Post: A Manhattan man has gone to court to regain custody of his kidnapped "son" - his dog Knuckles. In papers filed in Manhattan Supreme Court, Craig Dershowitz says he hasn't seen his precious puggle in months, since ex-girlfriend Sarah Brega "took unilateral control of Knuckles and kidnapped him."
He believes Brega has since spirited Knuckles away to California - and he wants a judge to force Brega to bring his "baby boy" back home. "You say it is an extraordinary step but I think most pet owners would agree with me. Knuckles is my son, my heart – you would fight just as hard to protect your own children."
The tattooed artist said he got "Knux" through a family in New Jersey that had a litter of puggles, which are a cross between a pug and a beagle.
"I chose the name 'Knuckles' because he was the littlest yet most spirited of the litter. He looked like a scrapper," the Brooklyn native said.
The suit says that when he and his live-in girlfriend of four years broke up last March, there was no question of who the dog belonged to. He's the registered owner, and the one who paid for his vet bills, food, "support, upkeep and maintenance," the suit says.
