Family evicting me but want to keep my dog
This is a rough situation but I don't really have anywhere to ask for advice other than here. I moved up to live with an uncle with my mom about 10 years ago. Have two shelter dogs, and there's a lot of acreage for them to run here though these folks have strict rules to always have them tied up at all times to a cinder block on the patio. Basically the only time they're let out is to use the restroom on a tie out that is hung on the patio door. Ive walked them regularly while balancing work schedules but they've walked them maybe a handful of times in 10 years. Their life revolves around trying to impress people and upper social class movement.
My uncle was the Grand commander in the " Stone cutters Club " and the plan was always for me to join but after my interactions with him, his deceptive sith Lord like behavior, and my research about that organization decided I don't want anything to do with it. He always put on a friendly facade with me to make sure I continue to pay rent and split repair costs, and be his personal handyman but I kind of knew that him and my mother were always plotting to disinherit and get rid of me the whole time no matter what I did. As time went on he gradually escalated verbally and then physically abusive with me.
Fast forward to today they've served me an eviction notice want me take one of the dogs and keep the other one. Apparently they say I've been asking too many questions and putting two and two together. What is the legality of this is I'm technically responsible for both of them. I found a house to lease but want to ask this community what would you do would you allow your (ex) family to keep one of your dogs?
