Freeholder refusing request for dog unreasonably

Sadly being a 'mongrel' does not mean that a dog will not have disease and many rescue dogs are breed anyway (I haven't used the word pedigree, as that means their lineage has been formally recorded). A breed may carry a known disease, but a crossbreed could be the sad recipient of a number of accumulated problems. (My pedigree dogs lived for almost 15 years, with one exception and the current one will go on longer, as he is nearly 15 and well, but my little crossed collie died at age 7).
While it isn't a guarantee with an individual, statistically mongrels do live longer than pedigrees, and have a lower risk of loads of genetic conditions that are caused by inbreeding.0 -
So because you didn't get your way they are being unreasonable? I dont see either side being unreasonable here. You asked, they said no. End of story.0

They are the rules. You may as well leave it now. I love dogs but I am scared of some dogs. I think it is absolutely correct to say no. And you can not compare dogs with children. I agree that some children are much more trouble than dogs but animals have a different set of needs and rules. Living in flats nicely together means abiding by a set of rules (eg I remember someone constantly leaving their bikes in the hallway half blocking the stairs, people putting plant pots in communal areas, fag ends from a smoker .... all dealt with strictly).0

I agree,even the OP hasn't returned to comment any further on the thread since they originally raised the issue and posted 2 replys the same evening.
Every lease is going to be individual as to the inclusion or exclusion of pets and whilst individual views from everyone is always welcome it is nigh on impossible to get a lease overturned if you don't agree with it so better to move on and find a lease that will be more accommodating to your individual needs and desires.in S 38 T 2 F 50
