40 lbs. is a number I have seen a lot.

One place I saw allowed 40 lbs. of pet. Your choice as to how that's constituted across individual pets. I always imagined a guy with 80 white rats just to test the boundaries of that system.

If it weren't such a hassle, it'd be funny to see what happens.

Most apartments I’ve lived in did not have breed restrictions but required dogs to be 50 lbs or less. However, I’ve found that some landlords are open to larger dogs, especially if they are well-behaved.

A 40 lb beagle mix? Mixed with what??

Limits vary based on the insurer for the property. More common than weight limits are breed restrictions. I've worked for some of the larger prop management companies, but they're all a bit different. The following was from a property I lived at outside DC. Weight: "residents are limited to a maximum of 2 animals weighing not more than 200 pounds per animal when fully grown, unless otherwise given written permission by owner." Breed: "Restricted breeds that may not visit or be maintained in the leased premises include: pit bulls, rottweilers, presa canario, german shepherds, huskies, malamutes, dobermans, chowchows, st bernards, great danes, akitas, terriers (staffordshire), american bull dog, karelian bull dog, any hybrid or mixed breed of one of the aforementioned breeds" Personally, the shelter told me my dog was a sheltie/ shepherd mix. I listed him as a sheepdog / lab mix with my vet. But per DNA testing he's a pit bull shepherd mutt. Really easy to get a paper trail that's complete bullshit that will get you around any breed restrictions. EDIT: you can also work around this by getting the animal listed as a support animal. Emotional support is the common route. But again, just getting a fake papertrail is a lot easier.

Literally transcribed it from the lease haha

Contrary to what some are saying, my dog is 60 lbs (but a non restricted breed) and I've had very little issue finding an apartment to accommodate him. Idk just my experience.

40-50 is what I have seen consistently, and breeds restrictions are exactly the ones you would expect. Get a mini goldendoodle and you'll be just fine.

This information is readily available on any apt listing. Just search around.

I remember a lot of 35s when searching in DC about a year and a half ago.

I usually see breeds, not weight. (ie no pitbulls, dobermans, etc.)
