Housing - Marine Biological Laboratory

• The Town of Falmouth leash law is in effect, which states in part:
“all dogs shall be restrained from running at large, unless said dogs are
leashed and accompanied by the owner.”
• Appropriate measures must be taken to dispose of animal waste while
walking your pets, and yards must be cleared of waste during tenancy and at
time of departure.
• Pets are allowed only in specific cottages in Memorial Circle and Devil’s Lane.
• It is recommended that pets be crated in your absence.
Any complaints should be brought to the immediate attention of the Director of
Conferences, Housing, and Dining Services, Germar Kelly (x7212) or Deborah
Deering (x7213).
Continual pet complaints may result in immediate eviction from your cottage.
Please be considerate of your neighbors and the tenants that may be following
your occupancy by monitoring your pet’s activity and behavior. As more and more
people are bringing their dogs each summer, the quiet of the neighborhood is being
compromised. Please respect your neighbors, and help to ensure that everyone has a
wonderful experience at the MBL.
