Seems that if service animals are allowed in then the dander, and thus the allergens will be in anyway. In an ideal world nobody will have allergies, but to fully restrict pets from common areas seems to imply those needing service animals, or training service animals, are also unwelcome. Seems cats are the usual offenders rather than dogs, would it be feasable to allow dogs but not cats? (Most cats are not as socially inclined as dogs anyway...) I'm from an island where dogs go everywhere humans do, and it seems cruel to eliminate this interaction. ------------------------------------- Susan Pniewski, Esq.

An unusual feature of our commonhouse at Eastern Village Cohousing will be that several of the units, including mine, have a front door that opens into it or into corridors adjoining common spaces, either on the main floor or upstairs (where the laundry and guest rooms will be). Some of us in this situation have pets, and thus the really really rough draft (not fully discussed or adopted yet by the group) of the pet policy shows pets allowed in the common house, with some limitations. In researching that part of the policy, I looked more to Manhattan co-ops than to cohousing for ideas, because New Yorkers are used to figuring out pet rules for elevator buildings. -Jessie Handforth Kome Eastern Village Cohousing Silver Spring, MD "Where we're within walking distance of the truly amazingly renovated Silver Theater, east coast home of the American Film Institute (AFI)." _______________________________________________ Cohousing-L mailing list Cohousing-L [at] cohousing.org Unsubscribe and other info: http://www.cohousing.org/cohousing-L _______________________________________________ Cohousing-L mailing list Cohousing-L [at] cohousing.org Unsubscribe and other info: http://www.cohousing.org/cohousing-L
