pre-pup

Formal agreement between partners before they add a dog to the family.

Man: Well, if we ever decide to get a dog, we're going to have to sign a pre-pup first.

Woman: Yeah — Cuz if you ever break up with me, you'll never see that bitch again.

Man: Fine! But if she swallows some magnets and needs $1,500 in x-rays and surgery, she's getting the needle — and you'll never see that bitch again. That's the Darwin Award clause.
