Here's another post on how a newbie trying BRRRR almost lost it all: https://www.biggerpockets.com/...You should also keep in mind that BRRRR in a raising interest rate environment (which we are in) adds a layer of complexity to the process. 

In this specific instance though, a dog being brought into an unfamiliar environment, meeting unfamiliar people and being skittish and peeing on the floor wouldn't be considered abnormal to me.

We are in a rising rate environment.

@Dhwani Shah an extended possession period is fairly normal in the current environment.

My thought is peace of mind for the potential long term play.  

It's fine if you do, just make sure that is what you want.I would not get equity out of your house to buy a property, I think you should do whatever will bring you the most peace.

Its impossible  to precede 5 years from now, most investors have only lived thought a decreasing rate environment.

Trying to make this work by holding will likely make matters worse, especially in the environment we find ourselves today.
