So, is there a risk that you may receive the dredded knock on the door from Community Standards. Yes. But, as many have said, it is unlikely. One suggestion - don't walk all three at the same time.

And most importantly: Thank you for being concerned enough to ask.
Thank you, our sales person actually said we are allowed to, not that we can get away with it. This weekend we asked him to confirm that we are allowed to have 3 on move in (Taylor Villas allows 2 per the covenants, some only allow one) and he said he would research it and get back to us.

I have not heard of the knock on the door, I have heard of a letter. Whatever, it would not be a good thing and we certainly do not want to cause a problem.

While the Shih Zhu might fit in a large purse when we walk, the Great Pyrenees probably would be a little cramped, even in my back pack!


Here is a thought, question, if you have 2 dogs and the convenient for your village allows 2 dogs, and you neighbor has to run out of town and asks you to dog sit for them, can you? Is that a violation? Since you have 3 dogs in your house, but YOU personally only have 2 of them. The covenant specially says you can only HAVE 2 pets, it doesn't specify how many visitors can be on the property.
