I agree pets are not for apartments, I once have a dog when i used to live in a house and when we decide to sell and rent an apartment i find it so hard because its so unfair for the dog that i love and care for 16 years, she’s well behave and she don’t bark as much, but no matter how well train your dog is they will have accident meaning wee and poo with the small space that we have while we are renting that means the whole place smell. We try our best to take her out when the kids get home from school and when we finish work but its not enough, dogs and cats need space and with our busy life style its selfish and its not fair for the pet itself, I know some people who wants to have a dog while renting in a apartment, they can’t even take their kids out to the park as well as get their washing off the washing line on daily basis, can you imagine if they have a dog.
