We are forced to move from Manassas Park, VA to Millsboro Delaware because of our landlords zoning mistake. We are a low income family with a special needs son and when we found out we had to move abruptly we knew there would be trouble. We were just innocently renting for a year and four months when we found out that our landlord was in big time trouble with the city for the aprtment she built within her house. Apparently there is a weird zoning law that says that you can’t build a apartment within your single family house in the City of Manassas Park, VA. Once our landlord found out she started stealing our mail, harassing us and cutting off utitlies. Only one of us is currently employeed, and because our crazy landlord had our car towed out of our parking spot at her house (before our scheduled move out date this friday) she had to call out of work. Resulting in her getting suspended without pay to make our money suitation worse. When she returned to work she found out that her hours had been cut from 35 a week to 15. Housing locally here is like $1,000 a month now and we were only paying $700 where we were living. We struggled to pay that $700 a month but did, our landlord has also refused to give us our $700 security depoist back too. To make a long story short we have a friend in Millsboro who is willing to take us in for a month or so as we try to find new jobs, a new home and rebuild our lives. However she can’t have pets in the complex where she lives. We have a 3 year old 10lb pomerian female named Harley. Shes great with kids and other dogs & cats. We also have a 5 month old Husky/Min Pincher Mix (hes pretty small he is just slightly bigger then Harley currently). His name is Phantom. He is currently being crate trained. Harley & Phantom share the came crate. But we do also have seprate crates for them if need be. They need to be tied up if outside or on leash they are not the kind of dog that you can let run loose on your property because they are not the smartest to run back ha. We will provide leashes to walk them, food, food bowls, crates, treats and tie outs. If they need vet care we will take care of it. We need somone willing to donate about a month to help us out as we rebuild from this landlord nightmare we were in. We have no savings and we were not supossed to have to move until this summer. We were going to start to plan on saving in about two months. But with this hitting us very unexpectly and only a few more days to be able to legally be here we just have no choice. We are so worried about our dogs and my 9 year old with aspergers would fall apart with any more change going on. Harley and Phantom are his life and he is loosing his friends and school with this move please offer help to us.
