Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: guest post on privacy in cohousing?

[Nancy Csuti (nancycsuti]

As a person wanting to live in co housing when the opportunity arises, I 
wondered about fencing in space for a dog. Not for my privacy but to let a dog 
out. The ones I've visited have common dog areas but they need to be on a 
leash... And not as easy as just opening the door. 
It could be that those asking about privacy just have pets.
