[200William-EC SP67851] Dog Bylaw.

Mon Sep 29 22:07:24 EST 2014

Pia,

I have a few points to remark on:

.         I agree with Andrew that muzzling small dogs is problematic. I am
thinking of a little Shih tzu or French Bulldog and a muzzle might not work.

.         I would possibly remove the weight suggestion as I have also met a
number of larger dogs such as Lab's, Golden Retrievers and German Shepherds
that are extremely friendly. Having lived in London for a number of years,
large dogs live in apartments without concern, as long as their owners are
responsible.

.         I believe that a Strata representative should meet with the owner
and the prospective dog/s (with the exception being a puppy) to ensure it is
of a friendly disposition, with the EC's decision being final. In this
meeting the owner should be able to articulate a plan as to how they will
exercise the dog to ensure that it is not distressed, and therefore not
generally noisy.

.         I would also point out that the number of cats or dogs be limited
to two animals, as they will stress less if they have a partner if they are
left alone. Once again, all the standing noise and peaceful living By-laws
already stand to deal with any problematic neighbours, or their animals.

Regards,

Edward

Thanks Pia.

My own view is that we should not require a dog to be muzzled as per Matt's
email. I also am not keen to limit the size of the dog as I don't think this
guarantees anything. I had a 40kg labrador that never barked but l have
lived next door to a terrier that barked constantly for years. But since I
am not contemplating owning a pet again I don't have any objections to the
change in by-laws in principle.

Many thanks

Andrew

Good Morning all,

Hi Pia el all,
 Some of you may be aware that Di from 602 has been calling people
requesting the EC submit a bylaw at the next GM that allows dogs to be
allowed in 200 William Street. 
I know some of you will have have passionate views about this bylaw as will
the wider owners. If such a Bylaw was up for consideration I would like to
discuss the ground rules for such a law. Di has suggested that the law be
made that pets would be allowed subject to permission by the owners corp. 

I would vote in favor at an AGM for allowing dogs in the building providing
the bylaw ad the following requirements. My requirements are safety relayed.
As I have a small child and there are others in the building with children.
I believe Safety is paramount. 

Pet's would be allowed in 200 William as approved by the owners corporation.

The owners corporation could not approve Dogs that have been deemed by any
council to be A Dangerous Dog, Guard Dog, Menacing Dog or a Restricted
breed. (An American Pit Bull for example) 

Dogs must be restrained at all times by a lead and have fitted a muzzle at
all times while on common property.  

I have a good understanding of dogs and  am a bit of a dog lover myself and
have had dogs until I moved into an apartment.  These requirements are not
overly restrictive but protect innocents from anyone that would recklessly
use a dog to frighten or intimidate  others or just negligently select a dog
that was inappropriate for an apartment. 

Providing these requirements were met I would be in favor of a proposing
such a bylaw. 

It would be horrifying to be stuck in a lift with an American Pitbull and
and your child.  What are your thoughts. 

Matt.
