Why is Emmy so happy? Because she knows that Our Town is a damn good place for a pet to live. Rent.com sent out a press release (via) naming the top 10 most pet-friendly cities and Chicago came in second to New York. They cited "canine cruises across the famed Navy Pier, as well as pet-welcoming patio restaurants throughout the city. Chicago is also home to an assortment of pet resorts and boarding kennels."



I keep hearing this about Chicago, but I always have an incredibly difficult time finding a dog friendly apartment, and it seems to me like there are fewer and fewer places where I can take my small, fluffy pup. I think our status as a dog friendly city is about as accurate as our status as one of the country's Greenest Cities.
