Well, you can’t say the high fees are for nothing. An HOA in Baltimore is taking DNA samples from every residents pets (saliva or poop) and will attempt to match it with the dog poo found in the neighborhood. If they get a match, you owe a $500 fine. Even if you do clean your dogs doo, you still have to pay $50 for the initial DNA test and supplies as well as a $10 per month maintenance fee.

So, even if you are a responsible pet owner, you still have to pay close to 25% more every month just because you own a dog. No word on what they charge if you have children.

Don’t the HOA find out about Fight Club.

A Frisco HOA has told homeowners that they can’t have backyard boxing matches in their neighborhood. Not that I really care but it’d be nice if you could decide what your family and friends can do in your own back yard. Oh well.
