My parents separated 6 years ago and the divorce was final two years ago. My mother has no visitation rights with me or my older brother in fact she has no rights to contact me because of past conflicts. About five months ago she decided not to let us see my dog (oskie) a 6 year old miniature labradoodle. He's my baby and I payed for him. In the divorce my mother did not fight for me or my brother she just took my dog as a way to see my brother and I. She is an alcoholic and incapable of supporting herself much less a dog. And I'm pretty sure she mistreats him because every time I saw him he'd limp and he would flinch and cower if you move quickly anywhere near him. I just want my puppy back. Any feedback would be helpful ...
Also I recently turned 18 so couldn't I just go take my dog?

or:she basically stole your dog if you paid for him.also it looks like she's hurting him.I'm pretty sure there re laws against that.you could get her arrested.
