Dog friendly condo in Desa ParkCity

Hopefully someone reading your query lives in Westside III and is familiar with the Managements House Rules about keeping pets. Alternatively, you could visit the management office and ask them yourself.

You should also be aware that a lot of issues arise about keeping pets because irrespective of the condo's own rules about keeping pets, the Strata Title Act actually does allow a person to keep one small pet in a condominium, as far as I remember, as long as it is not a nuisance to other inhabitants of the building.

In the last condominium I lived in there was a no pet policy, but still some people did keep dogs and the management while unhappy about it could not enforce their rule about not keeping pets. In fact, I was a Council member in that particular condo and one of my good friends, a Datuk, was also a Council member there, but one particular tenant with a dog, a Japanese family, were my friends. The Datuk objected strongly to the dog being in the condo because he was a Muslim, and lived in the same block as the Japanese family and would often argue with them in the lift since Malays often do not like dogs nor want to be in a lift with a dog.

Aside from this problem, you will also need to find a landlord who accepts tenants with a dog. In all my tenancy agreements I specifically include a clause forbidding dogs because I have seen the damage they can do to furniture, front doors and the smell they sometimes cause.
