I feel like every place that is pet friendly is either cats only or they have a very small size limit on dogs like under 25 or 30 lbs or for some it’s even 15 or 20 at least 25 or 30 isn’t too small but still. It is when you like big breeds I have actually found a few that were 50 lbs though and one was even 70! but then it’s a toss up because some of the ones that allow huge pets might not be in the safest areas or very new or whatever.

Years ago, when house-hunting, we found a perfectly wonderful place with all the space we needed an a nice, big yard. All was beautifully on-track for a purchase until I found the little clause buried in the HOA. The main print noted that the number of dogs was not limited at all. The fine print said, "as long as their combined weight is under 40 pounds."
Needless to elaborate ... we did NOT buy the house ...

Oh wow!!! I didn’t realize HOAs could limit your pets! I knew they did weird stuff about the looks of the house or fences, yard etc. but not the actual pets.

Wife and I lived in an apartment. Their limit on dog size was 25 lbs. I asked if they’d make an exception AFTER she met the dog. She reluctantly agreed and we made sure to impress her when she met Cheyenne. She was border collie, kelpie, blue heeler mix. I didn’t have her on a leash. (She was very reluctant about that). We “interviewed” outside. We made sure to put her through her obedience paces. When she invited us inside, I told the dog to ‘load up’. She ran the 100 yards to my pickup and jumped through the drivers window. Sat in the seat and looked over the steering wheel at us.

Right then and there she said ‘I was on the fence, but that does it. I’ve NEVER seen a dog that behaves like that. I’ll allow it. Please don’t make me regret it.’

I paid 450 bucks pet deposit. I was the first they said that got all my security and pet deposit back when we left. The year we were there, people would come watch her get put to ‘work’ for a couple hours every night. If we didn’t come out, there were people knocking asking if Cheyenne was ok.

I miss those simple times

Wife swears she kept me because I stole her dog. Cheyenne and I were inseparable from the first moment. I kept the dog, and got used to the wife.
