Thought this place sounded great until I got to the pet policy... must be declawed!? Wtf!? How do you even declaw a dog!? I also think declawing is cruel and unnecessary and I refuse to do it which is too bad as this place has the highest weight limit for dogs and the cheapest pet rent I’ve seen and is otherwise great.

Darn, love isn't blind enough to work for me Sour. I have snow white hair and I love it,not so much other people. I am much younger on the inside so kids and teens etc. tend to think I am really cool. Is that word still in use?

Kdogg, I've never heard of declawing dogs, if they are concerned with scratches, etc. gee I'm surprised they don't ask that dogs have their teeth removed. Absurd.

But I think you will notice the more elegant places will put more restrictions on pets.

Find a place without 40 ft.(kidding) ceilings, and no olympic sized pools, and you will
come to some affordable home or condo or apartment.

Yeah, I have never heard of declawing dogs, only cats, and yes, I think both are absurd and also cruel.

And oddly this place was fairly reasonable (think it was like 700 or 800 and a lot of places are like 1200) and it wasn’t even that fancy which makes it even more ridiculous!! Lol

I didn’t even think about the ceiling or pool though

That's crazy! I am not moving anywhere where there are any restrictions on what I can and can't do on my land. Even some lifestyle sections here have minimum house sizes (ie. big) you have to build or restrictions around what you can and can't plant. No thank you!

I used to be the fill in Nanny for a family who had a Doberman. She was an absolute sweetheart. Staffordshire Bull Terriers are gorgeous dogs too, if brought up correctly. I've known some sweeties.

I found this about declawing dogs. It's banned in many countries because it is cruel. https://www.mercurynews.com/2014/02/21/declawing-dogs-not-a-good-thing/

For a brief period of time when we lived in north FL, a pit adopted us. What a great dog, loved people. He joined the mail ladies family when we moved to WY and they loved that dog to bits.

When I used to walk a lot, I would run into a lady with her pit bull. When she got to the grass she unhooked his leash. My stomach tightened up, I was about to chew her out when the dog ran over to me. It was love at first sight. He was doing circles around me, and I would hug him every chance I got. That was WOLFGANG. My very favorite dog.

After that whenever they were out he would cry as soon as he saw me. She would tell me to cross the street to their side, so he wouldn't run in front of cars. Then she would let him loose. If I was riding the bus, I'd make the driver stop and let me out.

I think sometimes owners are very close to their dogs but, don't really notice things. One day I asked if he was on a diet. She said he was as fat as ever. But, he wasn't, he looked
absolutely gaunt and was straining to pee a drop at a time. That wasn't like him at all.
I mentioned going to the vet, and she said he was fine and went home.

Didn't ever see him again. One day she was out with a sweet but BIG and rowdy pit.
I asked about Wolfgang. She said they took him to the vet one day, and while on the table, his stomach ruptured and he died on the spot. She said she didn't want another big dog but, her husband ran out and got one. New dog was too hard to control,so he vanished.
