Most of the people still friendly with dogs come to live in the Oakwood Flats with their pets (usually small dogs, easy to hide). There is an unsaid rule here "I say nothing, you say nothing. We live in peace." Not one person living in the building will speak to anyone outside of it of their loyal companions.
The building is twelve stories high with sound-proof walls in every room, so those outside don't hear the barking. on the roof of the building is a swimming pool, shared by both dog and human.
