Even if the house was bing paid for rent wise, you'd still have to give a months notice, and then the hassle of moving all your stuff is not an easy thing to do, I've been renting for a good while now and I've accumulated a lot of stuff which I'm finding trouble sorting out in 3 months beofre I move out of here so 2 days isnt an option so I know exactly where Louise and Lee are coming from. I think its harsh that someone would want a dog out of a house, my GF rents with me and we keep her dog in the house 3 nights of the week and I can honestly say I was dubious about it at first but apart from the odd moment of madness of ripping things up when left alone there has been no damage at all and I'm very impressed by the behaviour of her in the house, its changed my mind. I think once an animal is well trained, behaved, and clean, there is no reason they shouldnt be allowed in a house, I've lived with people that are worse trained and behaved to be fair!! I'm looking at places in NZ at the moment and its so hard to find a place that allows animals, I think they should be given the benefit of the doubt. Looking at the dog in the pics its obviously well cared for, well groomed, clean, and that should be all that matters, obviously the family thing makes it tough to conteract the decision but a dog like that will always find a good home. There are lots of people looking to find good well cared dogs, a lot of people nowadays go to rescues to adopt dogs, so I'm sure ye'll find someone closeby that ye can visit the dog or whatever. For what its worth if I wasnt moving abroad in the next couple of months I'd have no problem taking a dog like that, we have 2 at home at the moment from rescue, but unfortunately cant.
Some people arent animal friendly and so is life, just dont give her to someone for the sake of it, make sure its a good home and that she'll be able to be visited, its important for her that she has contact with ye to settle to her new place, once they're 2 they're adults and have become accostumed to you both at this stage.
Good luck with it.
I'll ask my sister in the meantime who works in a vets if she knows a good owner that looking.
Does she have papers and chips and the works??
if i could move i would but i cant! 
Sucks your own father is makin you get shot of your dog. she looks a crackin mutt.
