We are adding rules & regulations to our by-laws regarding pets. Looking for verbage that is general and can be tweaked for our specific need, we are a 7 story bldg (loft project) that suddenly has a surge of homeowners and pets. One of the main beef is dogs barking in the hallways - dogs peeing in the elevators and RIGHT out front the door against the brick wall - We would like to restrict the number of pets, also should we charge a fee for dogs? Especially for units that are rentals? Some of the homeowners are frightened by dogs, its uncomfortable for them in the elevators. We have a girl who does not have control of her dog, he pulls her out the front door, and barks! This is all new to the board, because all of a sudden it seems everyone is buying a dog!! thanks

Our current "Docs" allow 1 domestic pet per household. All must be leashed and neutered and licensed. If it is a dog, it may not weigh more than 35 pounds. None are allowed to be chained outdoors.Our property manager enforces the rules to the tee. Your pets in the building are NOT the problem. It is owner negligence. You must have a clear set of written rules and they must be enforced with an even hand. If you do not have written consequences for bad behavior or ignoring the rules, then you better get some amended to your "Docs".
