<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I think you should let it go, and try to move
somewhere else. Because a Dog guide is a dog. Whether he is
considered a pet, or a service animal. For
which you aren't charged extra. Consider the example you
would be setting for others. Who just want to skate around rules for
one reason or other. This can be seen by other pet owners. Who
consistently attempt to pass their pets off as service animals. Some of
these service animals, or so they are called by their owners, haven't even
a modicum of training. Consider also those with whom you have to
live. Who might understand a dog guide as a dog, as do the
management of the building, and might not understand your reasoning.
How will they accept you as a neighbor. When they are restricted regarding
the number of dogs they are to keep, and you aren't seeming to be. You
might be better off to move to a duplex, or a double house. Owned by
a private individual. Who might be more sympathetic to your rationale, and
less bound by strict apartment rules. </FONT></DIV>

Apartments</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Hi fellow Guide Dog Users of Ohio,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>I would like to discuss more about the issue I'm having with
the WoodGate Apartments regarding their policy of pets and
my guide dog Gipp.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>I want to go about this the right way and with the correct
information I will need to help me be able to have both my pet dog and
cat and my guide dog living with me if I want to be able to
live in these apartments.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>My fiancee Rick and I did go up and talk to the management
of these WoodGate Apartments but we didn't fill out any
application as of yet.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>The management pet policy is one dog and one cat only. So
I'm thinking I should be able to have my pet dog and my cat of course I will
need to pay for them. Which I have no problem with but on the other hand I
should be able to have my guide dog there at no charge and not count him
in the house hold he's my mobility aide and not a pet. The
management says I can't have 2 dogs and a cat or two cats and a dog for
example but just one dog and a cat.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>I'm not giving up my pets and I want to be able
to have the opportunity to live here if I choose to with my pet animals
and my guide dog. One of the reasons we considered this apartment
complex is because they allow dogs and cats so I figured this would
be perfect for us with my 2 pets and Gipp wouldn't be a issue. But
I'm not giving up my Chihuahua just so I can have my guide dog . I
should be able to have both dogs and my cat.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>I never had a issue like this before and I need some
guidance on how to go about this.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Do you all think I should pursue this? </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Also, I don't have Deanna's email address or
Alleha's email address and I was wondering if you 2 could send me your
emails off list to me.? Thanks.</FONT></DIV>
