[quote=Anonymous]So, I own a condo in a building that doesn't have pet restrictions (so there are a bunch of them, including large dogs) and the things that are the biggest issue are noise from units, pets that don't get along super well running into each other in crowded halls or elevators and picking up poop. I think the suggestion of poop bag dispensers and trash cans is a great one - it's gone a long way to mitigate the clean up issue. I think for sound abatement, I'd just go with a rule for tenants that they need 80 % (or whatever) of their floors covered. That way they bring their own carpets. Honestly, more than physical damage, my HOA has found that having ground rules for residents to work things out between them when one pet is too noisy or is badly behaved in public spaces, etc is the biggest deal. I suppose you can put in an outdoor play space/dog washing station/ etc but I don't think they're that crucial. I would think about what pet issues you might consider violating the lease so that you have some tools to address behaviors you don't want. [/quote]
