Hef, ex in puppy custody battle

Hef, ex in puppy custody battle.  Divorce and break-ups aren't the prettiest things, but what happens when you add pets to the mix? Well, things can, apparently, get downright ugly.

See the latest example, which comes in the form of celebrities Hugh Hefner, the founder of the lucrative Playboy Enterprises, and his ex-fiance, former Playboy model Crystal Harris. According to a report by People, the two are engaged in a custody battle, but not the traditional one you might think of; these two are fighting over who should retain permanent ownership of their shared puppy Charlie, a King Charles Cavalier Spaniel.

Hefner, 85, and Harris, 25, broke off their engagement in early June 2011. Despite the time lapse between the broken engagement and present time, the two are still quarreling over who should have permanent ownership of the puppy.

Hefner jokingly made remarks that if "she wants to keep the ring and the Bentley, then maybe I can keep the puppy." Maybe he's right...or not.
