Dog food prices are rising. Landlords in Burnsville are taking action

By

Like human food and lots of other things, dog food prices are going through the roof.  If our country would stop trying to make fuel out of everything except natural gas, maybe prices would stabilize or drop, but that's another story.

Today I want to commend landlords everywhere for doing what is necessary to feed their dogs the high quality and healthy food they deserve, even in the face of ridiculously high prices.  Yes, all you had to do to afford the higher dog food prices was raise the rents of your tenants, and that you did with gusto.  Congratulations on your astute problem-solving tactics. 

Sure, there are a few renters who are upset, but you, Mr. Landlord, are the one who has kept their expenses down.  Without your guidance, they would all probably have dogs, and they would all be facing higher dog food prices.  Mr. Landlord, you are a tenant's hero, and they just don't realize how good they have it. 

There's some talk around Burnsville that there are a few folks thinking about firing you.  They say things like "Why should I pay his mortgage when I could have my own?"  They think they would like to pay for their own dog food for their own dog, instead of buying food for your dog.  Some of them even think the sort-of-beige color you chose for all their walls isn't quite perfect.  They want to choose their own paint colors like you do for your own home.  Some of them think they should have a garden like the one you have in your yard.  Some of them even want a yard.

Mr. Landlord, I would like to help make your life a lot easier for you.  You see, I help renters fire their landlords, and  you can then find someone who will appreciate everything you do for them.  Just tell the troublemakers to call me to arrange a convenient time to attend a free landlord firing and home buying strategy session. 

Hey renters, you don't have to be referred to me by your landlord.  You can call without being told to do it.  I know, Mr. Landlord seems to be the one telling you what to do and what not to do about almost everything.  But this is something that it's OK to do on your own.  Call me now.

Hope tenants everywhere decide to buy a house, but am not expecting it to happen. Good luck.
