When we lived in Omaha, they had a 3 dog limit. When we 'acquired' Meadow back from my oldest son's ex-girlfriend, we contacted the local humane society and discussed the situation with them and they told us about an advocacy license, which would allow us up to 5 dogs. We filled out an application and they had to come out and do a home inspection, checked where the dogs would be kept, fed and watered, checked our fenced yard, etc. Then we had to pay for the advocacy license, of course (I think it was something like $100 and had to be renewed every year). Then we were able to keep all our dogs and Meadow too. And since we were licensed for up to 5 dogs, we went ahead and got another puppy. LOL! Maybe you could check to see if they have something like that where you live.
