The city of Tomah, Wisconsin is best known as the location where Interstate 90 and Interstate 94 cross, and the community wholeheartedly embraces this unique position as "The Gateway to Cranberry Country."
The history of the city dates back to its original founding in 1855 by Robert E Gillete, who named the small town at the time after a man by the name of Thomas Carron, an ancestral member of the Menominee Indian tribe in the late 18th century. Carron eventually became a chief of his tribe, and the native american pronunciation of his name, Chief Tomah, prompted the future name of the town. Although the etymological tales of the town name's origin are unsubstantiated, the influences of the Algonquian language are evident. See more
Finding an apartment in Tomah 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.
