anyone have pets in an apt?
We are looking to adopt a small dog this coming spring. I am more interesting then my DH but that is neither here nor there..Anyways does anyone else have a pup in an apt? How does that work for you do you have enough room for everyone? We have a good size apartment and most likely moving once the lease is up in July to a bigger place but I just wanted to get feedback..TIA we are thinking about a boston if that helps hehe
Re: anyone have pets in an apt?
We live in a condo and we have a cat. This has been fine.
I know others who live in apartments and have dogs. To my knowledge it has not been a problem for them.
The only thing I would check is your lease/apartment policy. Make sure you are allowed to have a pet and what (if any) the additional fees are.
We've had apartments/rented condos the entire time we've had our dog. She's a 25-pound whippet/lab mix.
When we first got her, and in the place we just left, we were on the ground floor and had a grassy fenced area with a 6-8 foot fence. This was heaven because we could just let her out to use the bathroom! But, other places we have not had that and as the pp said the trips outside can get to be a pain (no matter what floor you're on), but our sweet girl is worth it.
As for space, it's been fine. Sometimes finding a spot for her food & water is a challenge - in one place we had it in the bathroom, but again it's not something that would make me not want to have her.
I've never had a problem with a pup taking up too much room but be careful what type of breed you get. If they are barkers or hard to potty train you may have more problems then space. Or, if they are super hyper you may have to be ready to take them on long walks. Just do your homework and you shouldn't have any problems :-)
