Landlord withholding deposit due to a dog we didn't have

Hi,

Have just been informed that landlord wants to keep some of our deposit to pay for professional cleaning as parts of the house ‘smell of dog’. We didn’t have a dog, nor did one ever come into the house.

How can I prove that we didn’t have a dog?

Thanks!

The onus of proof is on the Landlord for deductions from your deposit. If you disagree, you can refuse & the decision will go to arbitration.

Is it a scam or do they have pathology ?
