Forum Rules
1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect.
2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff.
3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned.
4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule.

I am SO ANGRY right now!!

John got a job offer in Albany (YAY!) so I was all set to move into one of these two apartment complexes that are "large breed friendly" and I've heard GREAT things from several people about these places. They're in the town that John will be working in and everything... I call up to get some information and guess what? They don't allow huskies.

WTF?! I've heard of this before, but seriously? Huskies on the banned breeds list because of insurance? SO DUMB.

So now I'm scrambling to find houses/apartments to rent and I'm just super frustrated. People are so ignorant.

Find a house to rent - I am thankful that Lee did in Oregon. Poor Evo has grown up in an apartment with only nights to be able to run around outside. You'll appreciate the fenced yard - and the leasing agents typically just want to know how big the dog is. Good luck - and congrats to John on the job! I know how tough the waiting can be!

Yeah, I work from home. We need to move before the holidays, so we basically have 2 weeks. I've been looking for homes to rent, but I don't where to look besides craigslist. We don't have a ton of money to spend on renting an entire house and in the Albany area they tend to be expensive. Do I just call a real estate agent and ask? I mean, I wouldn't know how to go about that.

Oh - and be sure to look just outside of the area if possible. We try to always live just outside of where we work - sometimes ends up being cheaper and SO worth a couple of extra minutes in driving.

Trust me... I'm anal about this stuff... normally I search months in advance... we're looking anywhere within 30 mins of his office.. that side of albany is just expensive. It's right outside of Saratoga if that puts it in perspective for anyone. Ritzy, rich area, and hard to find something cheap.... ESPECIALLY a house.

Tell him to find another job in a cheaper area! Smile just kidding..... i am really hoping you find something, i hate being priceed out of areas, that happend when we bought our home last year, not where i wanted to be but has worked so far. maybe you need to be less anal if you can be? i know its hard as i am the same way but you don't need to make this more stressfull then it all ready is, have you called some friends and family that can help look? would Koda still be baned if he was a husky mix? a white lie cant hurt that much...
