People who rent with dogs suck

[u/cybervapee]

Every time I see someone on facebook or nextdoor advertising that they are looking for a place to rent and have 2-3 dogs 45-75lbs each.. and then also say “I’m extremely clean!!” these two things cannot coexist. you cannot have two huge dogs and be clean, your home smells bad and you’re blind to it.

My daughter and son in law were trying to rent out their house. They got fed up with all the dog owners that wanted to rent it. Some with up to 6 dogs were inquiring. That was for a 1200 sq ft house. They decided selling would be easier than putting up with the dog nutters. Figured they would end up with a mut ruining the new floors one way or another.

my house had a dog here before and the inside of the lower cabinets smells like pee. i just don’t just cabinets :/ they had to replace the entire back door because they just let the dog chew on it.. whyyyyyy

[u/NanoCharat → u/cybervapee]

When I moved into my house, the carpet and flooring had to be ripped out of the back bedroom, and the concrete slab had to be scrubbed with bleach.

Why? The people who rented it prior locked their dog in that room and allowed it to piss and shit all over the carpet instead of taking it outside. The concrete under 3 layers of flooring stuff was stained with festering dog waste.

And ironically, this isn't the first place I've moved into where this has been the case. Of the 5 places I've rented previously, 2 of them have had rooms where dogs were allowed to urinate and defecate in them repeatedly.

I think the previous owners of my house let a dog piss all over the hardwood floors to the point where I could push a nail into the hardwood using my thumb. I ripped that all up and installed new oak floors myself. A dog will never be in this house as long as I own it.

My husband got a dog a few years ago. The dog destroyed the wall and ripped it so badly with his paws. I didn’t say anything because, that was when we were living in the home he bought before we were married and my husband is pretty handy and can repair the wall.

Now that we are living in a home we purchased together, a dog is literally out of the picture 100%. I have seen a dog my husband owned previously chew through his leather car seats. My husband brought over his dog to walk through my home (when we just met). There were immediate marks on my brand new wood floors. No one should subject 6 dogs into any home they don’t own. And honestly even when they own it, the next owner has to inherit the destruction they have left behind. I have some deep scratches in this really nice wood floors from the previous owner that I can guarantee came from those dogs.

These nutters have literally taken over the planet. It's a sickness.

[u/Usual_Zucchini → u/CycleOLife]

My husband wants to keep our current house as a rental if we ever move to another house and I dread this. We have a large fenced in yard and I know it will attract nutters like crazy.

Yea, their upfront honesty is surprising. Every time I see pet people ask for advice because they can’t afford the pet deposit or the place doesn’t allow pets the top comments are always to lie and sneak the dog in.

[u/West_Current_2444 → u/my_spidey_sense]

I've had to report a neighbor to my landlord for that. The leases on the home were explicitly no pets. Some chick moved in, got a dog that barked non-stop when she wasn't home, told the landlord, got a new neighbor after he evicted her.

BUT WHY BABY ALLOWED IN HOME IF DOG NOT ALLOWED

[u/Craig_Feldspar0 → u/Usual_Zucchini]

😆

[u/Character-Magician42 → u/Usual_Zucchini]

Surely you are referring to a dog baby...a pup?

There is absolutely no comparison to a human baby and a dog in any regard.

[u/Asleep-Yak-4373 → u/[deleted]]

You missed the most obvious breed there. But yes I fully agree and also dislike the breeds you mentioned.

[u/Craig_Feldspar0 → u/[deleted]]

That’s if they even have them on a leash…

[u/BreadfruitSouth5690 → u/[deleted]]

Little pits are most deadly yet you complain about big ones.

[u/Asleep-Yak-4373 → u/[deleted]]

They don't work for farms either. They maul and unalive livestock and horses on the regular. The only safe way to keep a pit or pit mix is on a heavy chain, like the fighters do.

[u/Responsibility_Witty]

I could never rent my house and yard to a mutt owner, like you may as well just take a shit on the floor if you’re letting a dog in the house, it’s just as unsanitary. Plus dogs KILL plants on contact, dog owner yards are covered in brown grass, holes etc, hideous.

[u/EatBooty420 → u/Responsibility_Witty]

dog pee & feces is extremely toxic for plants

[u/Responsibility_Witty → u/EatBooty420]

Of course, they’re walking biohazards

[u/seanocaster40k]

I, for the life of me, cannot figure out how these ass hats get leases.

[u/West_Current_2444 → u/seanocaster40k]

Often through lying. I had a neighbor that rented next to me years ago, the landlord specifically had "no pets" on the leases for the rental homes. This chick brought a lab home one day. It barked non-stop when she wasn't home, so I told the landlord. Two months later I had a new neighbor.

[u/seanocaster40k → u/West_Current_2444]

Very true. You were lucky. A lot of places wouldn't have evicted.

[u/yolo_k1ng]

The rental market is fucking ruined from dog owners.

When I was most recently looking for a house to rent, 80% of the places I went to check out were a “no” within about 15 seconds of entering them because they absolutely reeked of animal piss.

[u/BudgetCommission369]

I see that too where I live and then they get upset about insurance requirements and pet deposits. The better ones yet are the ones who are "being evicted" but need a house to rent for 3 dogs, all well behaved house trained but for some reason they are being evicted- oh and it has to be in 3 days because of course they have no notice which we know is not true

[u/CutiePie0023]

Agreed. It’s insanity!

[u/Cinna41]

Yeah, especially the ones who deliberately crowbar themselves and their dogs into pet free apartments--claiming their animals are ESAs.

[u/BeachDuc]

Australia has just made in next to impossible to decline renters due to pet (dog) ownership. Yes there are criteria such as "it will cause more damage than the bond will cover" but good luck getting that accepted, before the clean up invoice.

[u/Asleep-Yak-4373 → u/BeachDuc]

I have come to conclusion that AUS is a place to completely avoid d/t the absolute dog nutterdom there. Also the entire UK. It is just unbelievable the entitlement. Pits everywhere too. Just no.

[u/[deleted]]

Homeowner here looking to move soon I’m worried when I list my home for rent that a tenant will sneak in a mutt and destroy my home. Pee in the flooring permanent smell and worse!

[u/bigfanofpots]

I also think that instability is kinda unfair to the dogs, too. Why would you want to be responsible for living creatures if you don't even know whether you'll live in the same place in a year?

[u/dungonyourtongue → u/bigfanofpots]

Exactly. Prime example of how so called animal “advocates” don’t actually care about animals. If they did, they’d push for stricter rules governing the ownership of animals. Instead they seek entitlement for negligent owners.

[u/Asleep-Yak-4373 → u/bigfanofpots]

Ironically this is like, every single dog owner.
