Seek B-Friendly Housing in Seattle

  • ZenGrrrlZ

    Hello! I'm moving up to Seattle in the next few months (between April-June) and need to find a B-friendly place to stay. A house with a fenced backyard in the Bellevue/Kirkland area would be perfect. If you have any leads, please PM me. Thanks! ~ Lori ~

    Welcome to the PNW!
    I am about an hr from you via ferry ride.
    Let me see if I can find out about pet friendly housing from my all breed rescue club.

    Hello Sharron,

    Thanks so much for your help! I know it's going to be tough to find a place – I actually have two dogs, my B and a Collie/Pharaoh Hound -- so I'm starting my search now. Any help and networking that you can provide will be MUCH appreciated! :-)

    Hi IMBJ, I'm not in Japan but my son & grandsons live in the Bay Area and he has a friend who teaches in Tokyo. No word yet from her. I'm glad so glad the tsunami spared SF. I hope you and your B are okay!

    @wizard: Ah, but that was the old names for these hybrids. Now the PC term is anything with "oodle" at the end. No no no. If we're going to be PC, the correct PC term is "Designer Breed." Because you don't want to leave out the "ugles" of the world (pugles & the like), and it sound so fancy, like a dog Paris Hilton would have. I love it when people assume my girls are some unique & exotic (mixed breed) designer dogs, and they are always dissappointed when I tell them "No, its just a unique & exotic purebred primitive dog that's been around much much much longer than designer dogs." I actually had somebody at the dog park ask me if they were basenjis one day, and I replied Yes they are. They then asked "So they're miniatures?" I said "No, they are both within standard, just at the very small end of the standard." They insisted again they were toy basenjis. Whatever. :rolleyes:

    What a wonderful Christmas story. I am so glad he came home and was OK, I can only imagine how awful your friend must have felt, thinking he was lost, injured and freezing. Nice to hear a really great happy ending.

    @LeeL: If you do go back to hardwood. I would recommend staying with Oak. We had oak floors in our last house and have Hickory now and the Oak was much better at resisting denting. You can see a few places after 18 months where the claw marks made a dent in the surface. I never saw that in 5 years of Oak. We have oak and it is standing up beautifully with three dogs {and Gypsy is fairly heavy} and all the kids {who are forever dragging their dining chairs across the floor despite dh's constant harping to 'lift, lift, lift" } The only dent is from where dh dropped the stereo when he was putting the room back together immediately after installing the floor :D I love it. It's tougher than we were told it would be and so easy to clean.

    I may take you up on that - if I can't get in where I typically stay and am familiar with. I've stayed in a couple of dives that I'd not care to return too. Seems like even if it's 'high' season - I should be able to risk waiting until I get there to see what the weather is like - I could go down to Fort Myers - I did that once before when it was too rainy and gloomy in Tampa area. I may just get one night somewhere certain and then just decide when I get there. Doesn't bother me much but hubby is a bit less willing to risk it.
