    Sounds like a scene from cant pay well take it away. When they finally get they find carpets ruined by dog pee and excrement.

    Bin bags filled with rubbish all over the place which is obviously filthy as tenant could not clean it properly due to all the rubbish.

    Tenants attitude is well he wont starve if he has lost money scenario.

    Sorry Op but have read your posts / comments and it appears that about sums it up?:(

    if I had a kid people would be more forgiven, but a puppy people are more judgemental and don't understand how hard work puppies are !

    Jeez. I'd be pretty judgemental of a parent who let their kid pi$$ on the living room carpet and just left it, I can assure you.
  • You sound like a great tenant.

    Don't want to pay your last month's rent because you've spent it elsewhere.

    Don't want to allow prospective new tenants to view the place (understandable as you're allowing a dog to urinate everywhere)

    I'm going to defend the OP here.

    New puppies inevitably have a couple of accidents while they are being house trained, just like children do during potty training. This doesn't mean you have 'let' them do anything!

    OP may have cleaned it up as best they could at the time, but without the right products there will always be a slight trace. Hiring a proper carpet cleaner with the stronger products to give the carpet a really thorough going over once house training or potty training is done is something that quite a lot of puppy owner/parents do, actually.

    Except she plans on cleaning it when her things are moved out, not when it happened.

    I'm willing to bet she didn't just leave it.

    The carpets are stained due to my puppy peeing on them, but once property is empty I'm going to get them cleaned with a carpet shampoo machine? :money: it's difficult while property is not empty as I have too much stuff !

    O !

    This suggests she hasn't probably hasn't cleaned it, unless wee is cleaned up straight away it will stain the carpet it ends up looking like you have dropped bleach without the clean smell
    I'm willing to bet she didn't just leave it.

    Given that you are not planning on paying any rent for the last month, I think the least you can do is allow your LL to conduct viewings before you move out. I'm sure you can come to a mutual agreement about timings and who needs to be there.
