In my own personal home, I do have a German Shepherd so I'm not a large dog hater.  

This can include but not limited to Pit Bulls & Staffordshire Terriers, Doberman Pinschers, Rottweilersj, German Shepherds, Chows, Great Danes, Presa Canarios, Akitas, Alaskan Malamutes, Siberian Huskies, andWolf-hybrids 4.We would prefer no puppies or dogs less than 1 year of age due to “accidents” but do understand that at some point, this may be desired.

I would consider putting them in your name so you can protect your fridge (if it can be salvaged - German roaches can get in the back of appliances and destroy them).  

., I have suspicions that she faked a LL reference because the previous LL has the same unusual German surname as her boyfriend.

I would not accept any aggressive dogs including pit bulls ,German Shepherd's, dobermans, Rottweilers, etc. it's just not worth the liability to me.

Therefore, dogs fully or partially of the following breeds will be rejected:Akita, American Bulldog, Bullmastiff, Mastiff, Chow, Doberman, German shepherd, Husky.

German roaches were even crawling out of the fridge door seals, and had developed language skills they were that advanced.In my wife's defense, she had her crew in, cleared, cleaned and repainted the place before I managed to get back into town. to this day I haven't seen the photos.

I agreed to allow the German Shepherd with a $200.00 pet deposit which she partially paid.  

I could use exactly what you described on an 1890's German style building I am renovating right now!

I am not saying all but a lot of these negative critiques are not unique to Lima but germane to all HML deals.
