A court in Spain has bared a man from seeing his dog following a divorce.
At first, the Spanish man was awarded visitation rights by a court in Barcelona.
Yet, after an appeal, a higher court overturned the ruling, saying it would set a precedent establishing pets as children, under divorce law.
According to Reuters, court documents say, "This sort of litigation is rare, given that common sense and reason dictate that people should not take such cases to court."
