AK - Divorce - § 25.24.160. Judgment AS § 25.24.160 Alaska became the first state to allow judges to provide for “well-being” of pets in divorce actions.

The amendment states: “[i]n a judgment in an action for divorce or action declaring a marriage void or at any time after judgment, the court may provide . . . (5) if an animal is owned, for the ownership or joint ownership of the animal, considering the well-being of the animal."
