Well, I think pet limit laws are archaic and silly and should be abolished.
But that's beside the point.
What if the city code were 6 dogs and 5 cats and tomorrow they changed
it to 3 dogs and 2 cats? I mean, you can't predict the future. What
if they move somewhere where the code is only 4 dogs?
How many of us have had animals
1. in excess of city codes
2. in excess of what was allowed by our landlord
3. in secret from our landlord
4...well, I think you get the point.
Fortunately we don't have animal limit laws here, though the shelter
limits me to 10 (personal and foster) animals at a time.
They only count litters as 1, though. So all my litters, including
the ones that are almost 2 years old, I count as 1. That's how I get
around it. Heh.

Hey guys,
I went on my first site visit tonight with my friend
who lives here in San Antonio. The only real concern
she and I both had were that the family already has 5
dogs and 5 cats. They live in a regular subdivision
home in San Antonio (regular size plot-nothing too
large, although the backyard is nicely sized). The
municipal code says that no more than 5 dogs and 3
cats be in one home at a time. So our question,
especially to shelter owners/volunteers, is this: if
you know adopting a dog out, even if it's to a good
family, will put that family in violation of city
codes, would you do it? My friend is not the one
making the decision; she's just reporting the
information to the shelter. We were just curious as
to what your thoughts are on this.
