We do have agents who work with us in finding accommodation for people with pets, however, I will be honest with you by saying that most Aussies keep their dogs outdoors so if you do get a landlord to accept them it may be on the condition that they are kept outdoors, although the landlords know that the dogs still come in to the house.
Landlords are not allowed to ask for a pet friendly bond, however, it doesn't harm to offer one. Also get some references together for the dogs, yes I know it may sound silly, but landlords want to know if your dog is well behaved. If your vet could write you a letter saying he has known the dogs for ex amount of time and that they suffer no phobias or seperation anxiety then this will help.

Good luck with the move and if you have any more questions please ask away, that's what we are all here for.

We could get references easily from our trainers our dogs are agility dogs. We crate them in the house anyway so maybe it is a possibility???? Anyhow as I said we have another option or we could board them over there. Thanks for the advice
