I really need to vent. My landlord does not allow dogs but for my depression and anxiety my doctor recommended getting a dog. She said we could register it as an Emotional Support Animal so by law my landlord had to allow it. My Hubby is 100% against it just because our landlord doesn't allow dogs. He says we will be evicted even though we couldn't be since it would be illegal. My Hubby says if we can find an apartment that allows animals we can get one but I've looked and looked and the only ones that allow dogs are out of our price range. He refuses but he's not taking my feelings about any of this into consideration. My depression hit hard after our last dog and it would help me ALOT to have another but he doesn't care.
@kristinamarie_1996, I actually lived in an apartment that didn't allow certain types of dogs for the longest time, however, my lab/pit is registered as an emotional service animal. All i had to do was show the landlord the documentation and a note from my doctor and by law they were not allowed to evict me or say we couldn't have our dog there anymore.
What happen to your other dog, like the reason why u don't still him?
I would just try to find a new place that accepts dogs. Just because if you don't, your landlord could be pissed and try to evict you for any other little thing. And all of your neighbors may end up hating you and have it out for you since you will have a dog when the apartments don't allow them. Idk, just my opinion and something to consider. I hope it all works out for you :)
Alot of people dont understand at all. Trust me I know what you mean. @kristinamarie_1996
@thtrebelchild, That is what I would like to get. Our last dog was a pit bull and he did so much for my depression and anxiety. I found a pit bull that I fell in love with and he is at a shelter and has been for a while. We can afford to get him and get him certified and he comes neutered and up to date on shots and everything but my hubby refuses. He complains and gets upset because I'm so down all the time and he doesn't realize how much this would help me
I'm not sure. I would find out the law about it in NY. I don't think a landlord can over step that
It is different in NY, a girl I know has an ESA dog and they are considered service animals and cannot be denied under any circumstance. @boymama0908, and I know @beebaby, but my hubby refuses to believe anything I try telling him about it
@kristinamarie_1996 Thats what my dog is, is a Emotional Support Dog now..because so many places would turn him down cause he is a Pitbull. I have horrible anxiety && depression and he helps me. But alot of people or places dont understand that, and still like to make it a problem.
Technically you can get a dog if you need it for medical reasons. Almost like a seeing eye dog
After years of waiting, I’m basically prepared to get a dog without my husbands blessing. Dogs bring me joy and we have the means to care but he despises animals. Thoughts?
Keep the baby or Abortion.......
I'm 5 weeks pregnant which was not planned, told my family and there over the moon. I've been with my boyfriend for 4 years, we said we would be together no matter what. We both live with our parents and I'm in full-time work and he isn't. I've always wanted to be a mum it's one of my dreams, but my boyfriend thinks we should have an abortion because he thinks we are not ready, he doesn't have a full-time job and we are not living together. I don't believe in ab...

Dog rant!
We’ve had our large dog for 10 years. For the most part he was an outside dog until a year or so ago. He would go crazy ( bite the door and start bleeding to come in.) I have allergies so I’m not a dog person. We bought a huge kennel this fit him comfortably so he can stay inside for the most part. He did good, that lasted a year until a few months ago he’d go crazy and do the same thing to get out of the cage. My husband bought 2 large sections of carpet for the 2 living rooms. Whil...
@kristinamarie_1996 awe I'm sorry to hear that, tho it's a process of life it's still tough even when there older & veen around forever.
But it seems then u have been through the process of eviction be4 with a landlord & sounds like the situation ur in now it's identical as for what lawfully right. Now u just got to get your boyfriend to understand & see it that way.
