- An owner must not apply house pet rules to assistance animals (see Glossary for definition of Assistance Animals) and their owners. This prohibition does not preclude an owner from enforcing state and local laws, if they apply.
NOTE: An owner must not apply house pet rules to assistance animals and their owners. However, this prohibition does not preclude the owner from enforcing state and local health and safety laws, if they apply, nor does it preclude the owner from requiring that the tenant with a disability who uses an assistance animal be responsible for the care and maintenance of the animal, including the proper disposal of the assistance animal’s waste.
