Uninsurable Pets
Just a short post today. So, we now have a vacant rental house on the market, finally. We haven’t gotten any inquiries this week except for one. Some lady called and asked if we accept pets in our rentals. “Sure, what kind of pet?”, I asked. “An American Staffordshire Terrier”, she said.
I should mention that a while back I did write a post about this exact thing but I think that it bears repeating. I should also mention that over time, the hate mail (in the comments of that post) from Pit Bull owners was amazing. Well, here’s a quote from the famous store of all knowledge, Wikipedia:
The American Staffordshire Terrier is a breed of dog. The breed is a relative of the American Pit Bull Terrier. Early Bulldog–Terrier crosses were brought to the US with the British and Irish settlers, especially after the Civil War, where they were mainly used as fighting dogs, but also as hunting dogs and farm and guard dogs.
You just know that lady spent all day combing the “for rent” ads systematically calling each landlord hoping to find one green enough that they would sign a lease with her.
Lady, my answer is the same as last time. “Thanks but no thanks.”
