My dog Bloo was awarded to me as part of the divorce settlement with my ex-husband. Bloo went missing July 31 from my home in Texas. That is when my ex fraudulently claimed the dog as his and illegally took possession of her. He made arrangements with his parents to take her illegally across state lines to Louisiana. Police in Texas and Louisiana won't help because he and I bought the dog together when married. He refuses to return my dog to me as a way to bully and hurt me.

He is active duty Air Force at Barksdale and I have tried mediation through his chain of command to no avail. He has admitted to his first sergeant that he has Bloo in his possession and that he willingly gave up Bloo in the divorce seven years ago and that he has not paid for or given care for her in the last seven years. I have contacted the vet he took her to let them know he is not the owner and that her microchip is in my name and she is listed as missing, they didn't seem to care.

This whole situation has made me feel vulnerable, helpless, and victimized by someone I have had no contact with in the last 7 years. My nieces have been heartbroken since Bloo has been gone. I am seeking legal advice in my state from legal aid and trying to be patient. I am asking for anyone in the area who can help me legally get Bloo back home to her family I would appreciate it.
