    The crazy price of rent should cover a few puppy scratches. Modern landlords are like something out of the Victorian age, truly sickening
    They are seeking out ways to pile on charges, especially in RPZ's,

    @OP did you get the pictures up yet?
    There are probably a few ways to fix it without costing too much, but would need photos.
    Close up if possible or if worried about it being identifiable.

    They havent been seen or heard of since posting. I think its safe to say the whole thing was a wind up by someone who had nothing better to do. It happens!

    There's quite a lot of it going on.

    I take the posts at face value and try to offer advice based on that. Now - there are some that are obvious wind-ups and I just skip them. Seems some people need a life, if this is all they can find to do...

    Back to the OP (if they are on the up and up) - I would tell the landlord, and be prepared for him either to give you notice (likely) OR if you have a good relationship with him, tell him you'll leave the carpet as is for now, but replace when you leave. But tell him you must.

    We live in rented accommodation with 2 small dogs. We have a good relationship with the landlord, and we basically have our own stuff in the property - including rugs! The floors are washed and disinfected regularly, and as the rugs are ours? Any damage will be down to us - they tend to be cheap, washable and easily replaced. Is this something that could work for you, OP?

    The dog's still a puppy, so WILL chew! It's down to you to keep an eye, keep anything like shoes and children's toys out of his way and train the dog to know what he can and cannot chew.

    all pups go through a phase,
    here's proof it happened to me over two years ago now; but the floor covering was only temporary until i got tiles and flooring and i wasn't renting.
