Abstract
This study aims at identifying some desirable solutions of pet breeding problems on the part of residents through clarifying facts about the damages by pets in the detached houses areas.
Through the survey, it was found that nearly half of the residents suffered from the pet problems in one way or another while 40% of the residents expressed their concern about the problems.
The magnitude of damages depend not only on the number of pets fed but also on how the residential area is designed as well as on the age and family structure of the residents. The residents seem to try to formulate some rules on pet breeding in order to tackle the problems, rather than to prohibit pet breeding itself.
Therefore, it is necessary to formulate rules or manuals for pet breeding to improve the manner of pet breeding.
