[quote="Teresa Swift post=20070 userid=36355"]I have read the guidelines regarding service and emotial support animals, still I am curious as to what other communities follow for rules. I am getting more and more people that have emotional support dogs or cats. What do you charge when they want to bring 2 animals and only 1 is for support? Thanks![/quote]

Thank you for this.

Hi Teresa,
You cannot charge pet rent or deposit for the support animal, as it is not a pet. Here is the HUD response:

"The landlord cannot charge John a pet deposit for his animal because it is not a pet, but rather a service/companion animal required for disability." Source
