The thing that makes no sense to me is the landlord is, in effect, making alot of vacancies for himself. If alot of tenants move out, I wonder if he is assured that he can fill those apartments in a timely manner.
I live in an apartment and before I moved in I made sure my lease allowed for my dog. I paid an initial non-refundable pet deposit. If my landlord pulled something like this, there would be a tremendous amount of vacancies to fill.
When things get rough here, management sends out threatening letters that they will raise the rent of dog owners by $50/month if they don't clean up. Since I live two units away from the office, they see me walk my little one and know I clean up after her.
We also have alot of pet owners who police other pet owners to make sure the grounds are kept clean.
I hope your situation gets resolved. I know I could never give up my Yorkie. I'd find another place one way or another before I'd give her up. |
