They are tenants, so they are probably lying and the dog is an indoor dog, so I reject them for lying on the application.
If the dog really is an outdoor only dog, I don't take pets that aren't considered part of the family. Dogs who are family members are better cared for than dogs that nobody can remember why they wanted in the first place.
Dogs that are keep separate from the family are often barkers. Dogs that don't get any attention can turn nuerotic.
Under no circumstances will I ever accept a dog of any breed that is kept on a chain. You want to teach a dog to bark and bite, there is no better way to do it than to chain the dog in the yard.
Completely agree with you P NW. :) Chaining is inhumane for such a social animal.
