Discussion about
Does anyone have suggestions on the best way to go about finding a studio to purchase in buildings that allow large dogs (Golden Retriever)?
I would speak several real estate brokers about this. I'm sure there are plenty of buildings that would have no problems with a Retriever.
160 west 66th allows them
We have a Golden Retriever plus another dog, and we're selling our Upper East Side studio (72nd St/Second Ave), obviously a dog friendly building. Full service co-op, 9th floor. The MTA is moving the muck house out of the area this month which is why I haven't listed it yet (and besides we just moved) but will be doing so soon. $349,000/$761 maint., gym in bldg. Let me know if interested: 91 seven 36 five oh 8 seven six.
More generally, there are plenty of agents who keep track of pet friendly buildings (including me). We ended up buying on the UES ourselves because the area is more dog friendly than the downtown areas we explored, at our price point.
Dog friendliness and higher prices seem to go together, alas.
One more thing: You might want to be sure the agent knows what they're talking about when they say the building is OK with big dogs. We had an accepted offer to buy a condo in March, we were heading to contract happy happy, but I insisted that the agent send me the House Rules before things got too far. And there was a 30 pound limit on dogs in the rules, which the board president said wouldn't be waived. As an aside, My attorney said we could go into contract with a contingency protecting us in case our dogs got rejected, which is an idea I rather like.
if u live in a studio, just don't feed any dog
>if u live in a studio, just don't feed any dog
If you don't feed the dog then you will become dinner.
Very hipster, greenberg, very hipster: grow your own dog food.
Maybe you should specify what general area you are looking for. I know in Bburg and Greenpoint every other person seems to have a dog.

Every dog has two people.
I'm seeing a lot of Great Danes lately. Next stop mules, horses, zebras, or maybe a yak. If ya cant impress with a big car, or red soled shoes, or nobody is noticing your Panerai, get a big f'n dog!
If a MOTHER-IN-LAW is allowed then should a Great Dane be allowed
Does mom poop on the sidewalk, drool and smell?
Not sure what neighborhood you are looking in but every rental and condo building in the Financial District that I am aware of allows big dogs. I have a golden retriever so it was something I always asked when I looked at apartments.
Perhaps you should reconsider your lifestyle. If having a large dog is important to you, perhaps find a larger space to live outside of the city.
Buildings don't let people with large dogs live there because of the noise, smell, and disruption to your neighbors.
greensdale, then make the dog as dinner first
I'm looking mainly around midtown, east side but appreciate learning the experiences some of you have had with other neighborhoods and I'll look there as well. Does anyone have any experience with the dog run at Peter Detmold Park?
