Aw, poor dog and friend.

Seriously, my head just exploded.

Lisah, that's so tough. Best of luck to them.
My landlord generally gives a heads up on any visits because he doesn't want to accidentally lose someone's cats.
Not that it's not great of him to think of that, but giving a heads-up isn't actually optional unless it's an emergency.

I know that Illinois requires 24-hour notice in a non-emergency situation before the landlord is allowed to enter a rented unit. I think most states have similar laws.

Sweet Jesus. I just got into the office after a breakfast thing, and people are already making me nuts. The same people, about an issue we've ALREADY DISCUSSED. I have ALREADY TOLD YOU why your "concerns" are unfounded! STOP IT STOP IT STOP IT.

My landlord usually gives a week, so we can make pet arrangements if necessary.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
The company that manages my buildings has a regrettable tendancy to tuck a note under the door to the effect of "clear out half your apartment - the painters are arriving at 8:00am tomorrow". I began denying them access for that kind of thing ... starting with when they wanted to paint the radiators in January. morons

Mine gave us a week's notice about today's HVAC inspection/filter changeout. When the guy came over to fix my unit on Monday, I had to leave for work and warned him to make sure the cat didn't get out when he left. He told me that was something they all had to get used to--management didn't allow cats at all until Fall 2005, some months before I got there. They still don't allow dogs, although I swear I've heard some barking at times.

Either Arkansas doesn't or my super two apartments ago was breaking the law every time he let himself into my apartment after 30 seconds of knocking. (Was waked up twice that way and walked in on while showering twice.)
