Legal Question in Family Law in Indiana

divoce

my husband and I adopted a puppy last year. I held him, so my husband filled out the paperwork. I want a divorce, but I am afraid he will take the dog. We have no children, and the dog is the only shared asset we have. Can he legal take him from me, or do I have rights to him since I maintain his vet visits, medication, and other needs?
