replied to your post “jackymedan ???????????????? what even is pet rent? you mean you have…”

jesus christ.. we do have like.. a fee you have to pay if you own a dog, which is more like a tax that goes to the city you live in, not your landlord, so they have funds to clean up dog poo etc.. but I don’t think it’s anywhere NEAR those amounts (otoh I’ve never rented a place anywhere an I still live with my parents who bought (not rented) this house 40 years ago so I don’t actually know much about weird pet rules/things landlords might have over here..

Wait wait wait. So where you live, if you own a dog, you pay the city, and the city cleans up after dogs? Like part of park maintenance and stuff like that? Because here, dog owners are responsible for picking up after their dogs and…it gets heated. I’ve seen people gleefully threaten to poison people’s dog because the owner didn’t pick up after it. Having the city take care of it seems like it would solve a lot of problems.
