Legal tussle over dog
Ex-girlfriend gets to keep pet pending trial

The cost of the tussle has rocketed way beyond the small fee that the couple paid for the abandoned puppy. Typically, a terrier such as Sasha would cost about $1,500 here. The legal fees and costs in a High Court case, however, start from $8,000. -- ST PHOTO: AZIZ HUSSIN

A PET terrier is at the centre of a High Court battle between a surgeon and his ex-girlfriend, who both want the dog after their split.
Dr Tan Kok Chye, 36, and Ms Connie Tan, 29, a business executive, are tussling for custody of the dog, Sasha.
They first got the dog in August 2008, when they were living in the United States. Shortly after that, the pair broke up. Ms Tan returned to Singapore in November that year with Sasha.
