Landlord Charges Pet Fee for "Barking Chihuahua" That Turns Out to Be a Guinea Pig
A tenant in the U.S. has shared a peculiar dispute with their landlord, who is attempting to levy a $150 non-refundable pet fee. The landlord claims that maintenance staff have reported three sightings of an undeclared white and brown chihuahua in the tenant's apartment, allegedly hidden in a small cage, and have even heard it barking. However, the tenant, who uploaded a video detailing the situation, revealed their actual pet to be a guinea pig named Bean. The tenant humorously highlighted the discrepancy, noting that Bean, their two-pound guinea pig, is the supposed "chihuahua" that maintenance reportedly heard barking. The incident underscores the sometimes-unusual challenges faced by renters regarding pet policies.
