If you live in a rental, you might think that automatically means you\u2019re not allowed to adopt a furry companion. However, many rental communities allow for pets\u2014some even offer special amenities that cater to four-legged residents. If you\u2019re on the fence about a pet, consider these guidelines for renting with a furry friend.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \n

    Touch base with a few important people first.\u00a0Before you start puppy-shopping, check in with your property\u2019s manager or simply refer to your lease. Make sure your community welcomes pets, and see if there\u2019s any fee associated with pet ownership. If you have roommates, make sure they\u2019re on board with a new pet, too.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  2. \n

    Get all your gear together.\u00a0If everyone agrees on the new addition to your home, gather everything you\u2019ll need to comfortably welcome him to your space. This means essentials like food and a collar, as well as extras like treats, toys, and a pet bed. Have everything in place before you bring your new buddy home.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  3. \n

    Scout out some pet-friendly play spaces nearby.\u00a0Chances are you won\u2019t want to spend every minute with your new friend at home, so look for dog-friendly places where you can go together. Check out local dog parks, restaurant patios that are pet-friendly, and doggy daycare centers where your pup can socialize or receive some training.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  4. \n

    Always keep a close eye on your pet. Even if you\u2019re paying a pet fee each month, you don\u2019t want to let your pet cause damage to your home. This puts your landlord in a tough spot and could cause you to lose some of your security deposit. If your pet has a tendency to chew or scratch, try some formal training or trusted products to correct these behaviors.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
