askingforafriend

Hi all,

A friend of mine adopted a dog about a year ago. Apparently some of the neighbors are unhappy about how reactive her dog is (barks when strangers go past the window).

Recently, the landlord was informed about it and the landlord asked her to place the dog somewhere else within 24 hours. She said no and is planning to send her dog away to Ecuador for a period before she can find another place.

This will be a very stressful trip for the dog naturally, I wanted to ask if anyone knows more about the rules here.

The contract does not mention that pets are allowed, and that’s the argument.

If instead of sending the dog, she just tells the landlord that he needs to go through an eviction process if he wishes to kick her and her dog out, will she not have a few months time to find another place before it gets to a judge who then evicts her?? I am just trying to find a solution where she does have to send the dog half way around the world because of a landlord while she finds a place.

Thanks in advance!
