Super. 538 (App. Div. 2009), which dealt with the value of pets in family court matters. Specifically, the Appellate Division reversed and remanded the decision of the trial court, which awarded Dare possession of the dog and Houseman $1,500 for her interest in the pet. The Appellate Division directed that the trial court conduct further proceedings on the existence of an oral agreement regarding ownership and possession of the dog and the propriety of specific performance as a legal remedy., 2009
