Answer:

does ur hse hv pple ard all the time?
i guess its ok, if u bring it out for walks regularly..
lots of playtime out in the open, i dun see why u cant keep it in a HDB ^^

Answer:

yups i would want to keep one. but i would think twice cuz heard that they need baths quite regularly as compared to certain breeds. gonna be a major chore to bathe them when they are huge. :P

Answer:

it is not on the hdb approved list. meaning it is an offence to keep it and your dog may get taken away.
also there is a reason why there is this list. it is stupid to keep a large dog in such a small space.
when u have a big house with a garden then maybe you could consider it.
btw i have a miniature schnauzer - and she takes up all the space in our flat.
wouldnt even consider another dog.
when i was trying to choose a dog breed i made this list for my kids to use on my website. it shows all the approved breeds.
unfortunately some of the links are broken now since the american kennel club website changed their folder structure and i cant be bothered to update them.
btw you can only keep one dog in an hdb flat anyway

Answer:

Actually I see a few neighbours of mine got dogs tat are not approved to be kept in HDB flats..From wat I understand.. If the dog is well trained..Dun cause any problem..its okay to keep them in HDB flats unless ur Neighbour bway song with u go KPKB to the authorities loh.

Answer:

my fren has one (5 room hdb).. gotta bring it out for jogs regularly... and when it walk down the staircase.. it's legs will like tremble... need to let him exercise... and it's very fun to jog wif a GR.. and very hard to control esp when it wanna chase cats or other dogs... !

Answer:


people should think of the dog. it needs exercise and space to run around.
one arsehole near me keeps an alsatian (german shepherd) in a 3 room flat.
and he lets it shit its huge shits on the football field at thomson cc without clearing it up.

Answer:

Yeahz..I pity my neighbour's Husky.. Seldom bring him out..But at least his home is a masionette.. At least decently bigger than some flat around.

Answer:

my neighbourhood here got this uncle got 3 dogs. i guess is terrier. sooo cute!!! and the owner let them walk by themselve.
i think one dog is already a big headache. my bf got this jack russell terrier. -____- need all the attention from us and we need to walk him 3 times a day and play with him everytime..

Answer:


I used to keep two...

Answer:

regular jogs will be nice..
but my pup is still too small to have a big doggie ard her lol.
so i guess ill prob get 1 maybe much lata.

Answer:

i think its ok? but i think as long as the dog has been showered with love... shouldnt be a problem? but true la. GR too big le.
haha. but small = cosy ma. :x
mayb must constantly bring the doggy out for walk ba? lols. cos i got one friend live in a 3 room flat but got a schnauzer.. quite old le. its rather large maybe cos of the long legs. but it is a rather happy dog.

Answer:

y u wan big dog sia..
later the dog turns horny and rape u sia
lolz..

Answer:

I also feel it will be better that you keep GR when you stay in bigger house. More room for the dog to roam about.

Answer:


Yah, don't confine your pets! Let them have room to run about

Answer:

i think it's cruel to keep big dogs in hdb flats, unless u're like those old ah peks who have already retired and have lotsa spare time to take the dogs out for walk.
Anyway if anyone of u live in Toa Payoh or near Toa Payoh, u guys can come down to my estate, the multi storey carpark there for an informal dog gathering every night ard 8+pm to 10pm. My mom brings my dog down there to meet up with the other dogs n their owners daily. Highest attendance can go up to 10 over dogs.

Answer:

my friend bro kept 2 GR in his HDB flat.. Sometimes its cruel to confine them in small space, but as long they bring them out daily for some exercise, it still acceptable..

Answer:

my fren is keeping a GR and a poodle even though she stays hdb~ ultimately it still boils down to the pet owners themselves.. i have seen some people living in private property chucking their dogs outside their houses or tying them to chains...

Answer:

If u're just talking about official rulings, then definitely you're not allowed to have them in a HDB apartment.
Quoting the AVA website,
, "HDB apartments are allowed only 1 dog of a toybreed or its cross (that stands at 40 cm at the shoulders and weighs 10kg or less)."

Answer:

yeah, it's illegal
but my neighbour has two GR ... nice nice
