The town of Tonawanda is a northern suburb of Buffalo, N.Y., and contains the historic Village of Kenmore. Together, Kenmore and Tonawanda are often referred to by locals as Ken-Ton.

The Erie Canal is on the north side of the town, and the Niagara River forms the western border. There is highway access with Interstate 190 running along the western edge of the town. You can easily get to Buffalo, only 10 miles south, and up to Niagara Falls, only 15 miles to the north. View Tonawanda City Guide

Finding an apartment in Tonawanda that accepts your pet may not be easy, but it’s very possible. Keep in mind, most of the time you’ll have to pay a premium for bringing your dog along in your new apartment. Some apartments require you to pay monthly pet rent, others will ask for a non-refundable pet fee or a refundable pet deposit.

While landlords and property management companies have varying pet policies, most of them limit the number of dogs you can bring to your apartment and include breed and weight restrictions.

If your pet falls under some of the restrictions outlined in the pet policy, it’s still worth asking the landlord if they can make an exception for your dog. Preparing a pet resume ahead of time could help you build the case for your furry friend. Make sure to include information on behavioral training your dog went through over the years and proof of vaccinations. If you can, include references from your former landlord and/or neighbors.
