Again in CA folks coming in from Vietnam war would go out into the mountains of the state and federal forests and basically kill anything that moved and ate them..was  a real issue about wiped out the black bear population and in Wa. my brother in law worked for the road department and would find dogs that had been eaten it happens..

When the landlord lies and says I have 12 dogs and it's a lease violation, that's an unfair eviction. 

If you allow pets (and most people treat their cats / dogs as family) and a good portion of the tenants have pets, partner with a local veterinary clinic that will provide a free visual exam or similar service.   

My wife and I opened a Chicago Style hot dog cart, and I reprised my handyman business I started prior to COVID.

They said NO - it's no fair of us to ask for a deposit for the dogs. 

“Genius” me agreed to rent a house for them in exchange for fostering a few of my dogs (I run a dog rescue group.)

In return I can offer access to MLS information(Realtor), Sweat equity(maybe you need help in one of your flips), Bird dogging, or even listing any properties for you in return for your guidance. looking forward to connect with the community.

The owners dog is generally pretty eager to pick up their own poop and the owner of the dog gets the message quickly. 

The biggest thing I’d say is to not let the tax tail wag the dog.

I love real estate investing and love the opportunity it can bring to normal people.
