Please don't give your schnauzer away! At least make them pay a donation to a rescue group in order to take him. I regret not doing this in the past.

It sounds like you have a good set-up.chabouk wrote:People take care of their stuff without snoops measuring the height of their grass or running a spectrometer on the color of their shutters.
There's something to be said for HOAs when they aren't too controlling. When we lived in an unrestricted section of the county, we had one set of neighbors that were just plain disgusting. Trash, car, ATV & boat parts in the yard, and tons of cages with squawking birds. A house that looked to originally be worth $250k was maybe half that by the time we moved five years later. Not only did they lower the value of their own house, but mine as well.
OTOH, in my current neighborhood, one family had to rip off their Ike roof because the HOA hadn't approved it. It would have been understandable if the roof were some outlandish color, but Mars & I certainly never noticed it looking bad as we drove by.

HOAs are bad about limiting the number of indoor pets one can have, which I find a bit silly. (I can see setting a higher number.) A friend of mine used to have FIVE cats, and went through quite the trouble to keep them hidden from her HOA. All were indoors, but they were all rescues and she was attached to them all. She even put up solar screens on her windows so that her darker cats could not be seen from the road.The Annoyed Man wrote:There's a "three Schnauzers per family" ordinance in Friendswood?Charles L.

Sorry... I saw that and I couldn't resist.
Where we currently live, there is a limit of two cats and two dogs per house. Other than caged animals (hamsters, sugar gliders, etc.) and fish, no other pets are allowed.
A friend of mine keeps CHICKENS in her backyard. I can't figure out for the life of me how she has kept them for so long. And she has neighbors on all sides of her. She even had to chase one down the street one day. So far, no one has said anything.

We cannot take a rescue at this time. We discovered how ill-prepared we were when we had a temporary rescue that we named "Harry Houdini" for being an avid escapist.
However, I would definitely recommend adopting from a schnauzer RESCUE if anyone ever wants a dog. These dogs are like children with bushy eyebrows and beards. They're also easy to train and eager to please.
Some of you may remember my prayer request for Baxter last August. (He is still doing very well.) He's a good, obedient little guy, and I got him from a local rescue.
