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.

Yes there have been others complaning of the samething! try looking for a house to rent by owner they will not be as picky but you may have to have a larger amount to but down cause of Koda. when do you need to move by? i take it you can work from home then?

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.

Hope this helps...

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.

i also want to let you know you will find something and in such a short time it can be done! i had 1 month to find a apt to live in and move from PA to CO with Ken 1 ferret and a uhaul with a car on it! and i knew nothing about the area, i lucked out and found a nice place. beleive it or not i hade a hard time finding a place cause i never rented before and i did not have a car loan so to alot of places i had no record and that ment not trustworthy to them!

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! 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...
