Question:
Is there a limit on the number of Service/Companion animals if the tenant has all the proper documentation? The property rules are 1 animal.
Answer:
No. The 4350.3 Handbook does not specify a limit to the number of assistive animals a disabled individual may request. They may have multiple assistive animals that perform different tasks.
That does not mean that you, as the owner, cannot limit the number of household pets at a property. Just be very aware of your word usage within your policies. Pets are not assistive animals and assistive animals are not pets. However, both categories are considered animals. Your policies must be clear which type of animal.
