Legal Question in Family Law in Illinois

My husband and I agreed verbally that I would be keeping our dog in our divorce. Our divorce was final on February 24th and our papers state that we will each retain whatever possessions we have at the time of the divorce. When I recieved and signed the papers the dog was in my possession. I dropped the papers and the dog off with him for a visit and now he is refusing to give the dog back, saying when the papers were signed by a judge he was in possession of the dog, which is true. Is there ANYTHING I can do?

Take the case back into court on the sole issue of the possession of the dog and ask the Judge to make a decision.
