[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Same, OP. Same.

When dog nutters compare dogs to kids, you know they're batsh!t insane. I don't even have kids, but if you make any kind of analogy, you've lost your freakin' mind long ago.

We passed some baseline and very fair dog rules in our condo building recently (it's a newer building and it previously had no rules for dogs because there were no dogs). They were really limited and basic -- stuff like clean up your dog's poop and deposit in an appropriate trash can and don't let dogs block building common areas.

All of the dog owners in the building were fine with the rules EXCEPT this insane couple whose behavior is likely what prompted the board to create the rules in the first place (guess who'd been leaving dog $hit in common areas and letting their dogs run wild in the building's lobby). They had a bona fide meltdown at the meeting where we voted on the rules and the gist of their argument was that the rules were unfair because they discriminated against people with dogs but not people with kids. There are two very young kids in the building (a baby and like a preschooler in different apartments). And they were serious. It was like "how dare you tell me my dog must be on a leash in the lobby when there are no rules that babies must be leashed in the lobby.

It got shut down fast when a board member pointed out that dogs and children don't have the same rights and that it would be legal for the building to ban dogs from the building altogether if we wanted to but that if you tried to do this with children you'd get sued because that would violate a number of federal and local laws. So thankfully sanity prevailed. But the nutty dog couple really showed their a$$es and now we all know they are insane so that's been interesting.[/quote]
