If I asked them why were they being so idiotic (of course in milder, non insulting terms), their answer would be "it's a dog eat dog town".

But they approved me way to fast without enough questions so even though it was only 10k I just felt I would never get the loan and lose my 10k.. had another scammer drag me to NYC for the dog and pony at least I got a trip to the big apple out of it :)

also they have a service dog and a cat.

One of the first things to populate was: you won’t see women jogging alone with their dogs in the neighborhood.

I know a lot of investors use bird dogs, it would be a big disadvantage to me as an investor if I'm not able to give out a percentage/ flat fee to a bird dog.

I'm thinking of bird dogging in Texas to start out in my real estate investing.

However, my latest inquiry has been a woman with an ESA dog.

I had her assigned once before (a little less than a year before this issue) and she got bit by a dog and cancelled out. 

One time after a move out it had pretty bad dog smell.

This will help you to understand deal structures from the LP perspective and will give you some credibility if you raise money for others.Also, be prepared to "eat your own dog food" - invest your money in the same deal you're raising money for.
