Dog Fight!

Jen And Justin’s Nasty Canine Custody Battle

‘The custody of the dogs is a massive sticking point in their divorce,’ says source.

Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux‘s divorce has turned into a real dog fight!

Sources close to Aniston, 49, and Theroux, 46, say have bared their fangs over the future of their four canines.

“The custody of the dogs is a massive sticking point in their divorce agreement!” said a source.

The A-list couple announced they were heading toward a $225 million bust-up on Feb. 15 amid rumors of Theroux’s cheating and his disappointment over not having kids.

“Jen was hurt when she heard he’s been blaming her for them not having a family. They’re at the stage that they’ll do anything to hurt each other,” the source claimed.

It’s no secret the Marley & Me actress is deeply attached to all of the family hounds, including Dolly, a white shepherd mix; Sophie, a pit bull mix; Clyde, a terrier; and a gray pit bull Theroux keeps in New York City.

“Clyde, the little one, always sleeps at my feet,”Aniston gushed in 2015.

But insiders said Theroux’s recent claim he can’t live without the pooches is a bunch of doggie doo-doo!

“Most of us believe Justin’s using the dogs as pawns — as some divorcing couples do with the kids — to squeeze more money out of their settlement!” barked one insider.

“There’s no way she’s going to let him get his hands on her money — OR her mutts!”
