Ben and Ginny have gone through a nasty divorce. One item not covered in their divorce agreement is what to do with their black pug, "Gus," which they purchased nine years ago when they first got married. Ginny orally agreed to sell Gus to Ben for $100 on January 1, but then changed her mind. Ben has brought a legal action seeking to compel Ginny to sell him Gus, saying that no amount of money can compensate him for the loss of Gus's companionship. Under the reasoning inHouseman v. Dare, Ben would not be successful, because money damages are the appropriate remedy for the sale of something so common as a dog.
