Wow, my heart goes out to you and your daughter and the lil baby.Not your fault but I just need to say, how awful for the baby to be re-homed a 3rd time. Good he is only 11 weeks, I believe he will adjust quickly since seems he hasn't been in both homes long enough to form a strong bond. When I was a renter I lived in a pvt house, landlady lived below me, every 3rd year I was buying another yorkie till I ended up with 3, she never charged me for having a dog or the 3 I ended up with, actually I don't believe any landlords were charging extra for dogs back then. I lived in NY at that time. Truly sorry you and your daughter have to go through this. (((HUGS)))

GREAT idea Taylor!!!!!!!!!! Certainly would be better for the puppy....so young and having been rehomed so many times already....

In NY, NJ and Pa. pet fee is a monthly fee, the fee goes by the weight of the dog, this gets added to your rent, so it's like a rent increase. I don't know if that is what the OP is facing.

I can't stand it when landlords feel as though they can manipulate tenants and also the fact that tenants feel as though they have no options. Honestly it's very risky not having a lease to begin with for your own security, but I'm sure you realize that. Maybe she would be willing to take an additional security over a few months. Maybe $30 extra per month till you have reached an agreed upon deposit amount. As far as charging the extra monthly pet fee you should question that and be firm. Even though there's no written lease, you have a verbal one at the moment and since you are not paying an extra fee per month for a pet that you already have and that you had when you moved in, she can't change that. Im sure financially for her it would be a strain to have to evict you and for you to take the allowed 90 days to not pay her rent and to move out. not having a lease can actually be to your advantage in that situation. Good luck.

You live in NY, maybe NY gives 90 days, every state is different, every county with-in that state is also different. OP rescued her first dog in Oct. 2014, she may have been living there when she got this rescue. A lease is mainly protection for the renter. When I was renting in a pvt. house my landlady told me she doesn't do leases, this way it makes it easy on both of us, if I want to move or she wants me out no lease to bind either one of us. I was lucky, I lived there for 22 years and 3 dogs.This was in NY.

Do you have anyone interested yet i might be

so sorry
 

Sara,
This is so sad. I really truly understand how you feel. Last year I agreed to take home a dog whose "Daddy" died of cancer. And this little guy was the perfectly behaved gentleman I had always wanted. He was playful, affectionate, trained and had obviously been well loved and cared for.
Then my husband returned to work and we realized Duke had severe separation anxiety. I have never seen anything like it. He would be physically ill when we returned home, even if we were only gone an hour. I believed it was cruel to keep him seeing how it affected him. So I returned him to the foster mother I got him from. I felt terrible. I knew he was suffering the loss of his family and I felt I had hurt him when all I wanted was to help. The foster mother was vicious, talked about me terribly said I was incompetent etc. I was crushed.

Moving forward. ..Duke was adopted by a retired woman who was the perfect match for him. He is healthy and happy. He was older when this happened to him. ..but he survived and is well and content. You are doing everything you can. I am so sorry this has happened, but guilt and pain added to the top of grief is to much. This too shall pass and all will be well again

My heart goes out to you
 

If I lived closer to you, I'd be there this afternoon. I just rescued a little yorkie who is 4 months old now. There is a long story attached to her, but because she was born with a deformity, her life was doomed by the owners who were going to euthanize her. Fortunately, I have a friend who heard about the situation and told me (I had just lost my dear little 16 yr old Shih Tzu, had a hole as big as the world in my heart). Once I had this little puppy in my hands it was love at first sight! I'd love to get her a little sibling, but I live in NJ. Not sure I could afford to send for her and all that. But I wish you all the best in finding a wonderful new home for her..

Maybe it would be a good thing to surrender this baby to a rescue...they will make certain the puppy goes to a great home, they will make sure he is all vaccinated and ready to go.....it just seems so very sad to me that an 11 week old puppy has already been rehomed 3 times....he apparently left the breeder at a very early age, and every home he has been to since only kept him a week! His new home must be vetted and checked out thoroughly to be sure he isnt sent out again and I cant help but think a rescue would make sure he went to a home that would not have to rehome him.....

How do you delete threads? I thought I could handle whatever comments came my way but I just can't deal with the added guilt when someone reminds me of what I already know and already feel horrible about him being rehomed again. I expected it because i Know how some people on here can be but I just can't deal with it.

You can have a post closed but it can not be deleted. I don't think anyone is being mean at all. They are just thinking about the puppy.

Suggestions are KINDLY and GENTLY being offered to help you rehome this puppy. Nothing has been said or implied by anyone, that YOU should feel guilty about anything.

"I expected it because i Know how 'some people on here' can be". ?????????!! Helpful? Concerned? Kind? Offering hints, tips, suggestions??? No one tried to make you feel guilty! Which of these posts offended your sensibilities?

Excuse me.....Let me go brush the egg shells off the bottom of my feet!~

Can someone please tell me how to close a thread? Thank you.

Please do not feel that anyone is trying to attack you. Everyone just feels bad for you and the puppy and are trying to come up with solutions. I am so sorry that your landlady has put you in such a sad situation. (( Hugs))

I believe if you want to close a thread you can just click on the triangle with the exclamation point on it in the box below your avatar. A message box will appear and you can type in this request.

Unfortunately, I'm subscribed to the other thread where this thread was referenced. I don't want to argue with people about this. I never said someone was rude as they claimed I said in the other thread. I said I don't want to hear about how horrible this is that I'm rehoming him. I don't need to be reminded that it is bad that he's switching homes. And frankly, I would've been approved by a rescue to adopt him as well because my landlady would've approved his arrival with a rescue group just like she approved it with me. I'm just too sensitive about this to read over and over how horrible this is for him. I know it is. I agree.
