Here very few of the basement apartments in houses are legal where no fire wall between heating system or wiindows can egress in case of fire. Dogs in multi residential properties are only going to be problems. Suppose no matter the cause then if there is a fire then homeowners insurance will not cover as the homeowner did not permits to conform to make the basement apartment legal. Being a dog owner while ignoring reality of two dogs. In the province of Ontario sometimes once a year there are serious fires in illegally apartments in houses where sometimes there is loss of life or serious injuries. Only a block from the house there are many of those type of apartments in houses where most of the people want a low rent where they do not care about safety. Most of the people are really low lfes who are on social assistance. Since install high resolution outside cameras in house no longer do they walk the dogs in front of the house as no longer have the dog mess on the lawns. While the system costed around $1,000 cdn dollars was meant to deter vehichle theft as the theives wanted steal truck. They drive up and down the street really slowly to get codes so a key fob can program then drive off where vehicles will end up for sale is Lagos Nigeria where the governemtn will not return stolen vehicles. A vehicle code can be picked for 200 meters which is 2/10 of kilometre. Since having a key which can use to lock then if any the buttons are not pressed then no code is transmitted. When I go to plaza I lock the truck with the buttons in vehicle so code is transmitted. or use keys. A lot of thevies will be in plaza looking for codes. The windows are really dark so can not see inside. Most countries in the world use kilometers and kilometers per hour where stolen vehicles the speedmeter does not have to be changed where here kilometers per hour is used. --68.69.xxx.xxx

2) Unless the court orders it, nobody is going to get rid of their dog. Certainly not without holding resentment toward the other party. If it can"t be worked out, the tenant will need to leave and take the dog with them. How long this would take depends on many things. The legality of the unit - whether you want to go to court, and stop renting it; what type of rental agreement you have and what it says regarding giving notice. Study your landlord/tenant laws for some answers. --68.229.xxx.xxx

Since the tenant and the homeowner have this shared dog agreement of allowing them to play together. I would hope the dog owner who's pet did the damage would just step up to the plate and offer to pay the bill. At the very least half! Then I would start making other arrangements to keep the pets separated. --172.56.xx.x

Before animals came to the property the insurance declaration page would indicate where the owner would go to get the financial problem resolved when this liability surfaces such as has been explained here, best for owner to be named as an interested party so when the payment has lapsed the tenancy will as well. --76.190.xxx.xxx

Find another (legal) reason to get rid of both of them. --24.183.xxx.xxx

Dogs lose their tempers just like people. Never let a small dog and a big dog hang out together. I would never have let the LL dog go into the basement with tenant dog. They have territories. Two stupids. I don't think anyone owes anything here. Dumb and dumber. --71.188.xx.xxx
