Question: Can landlords impose restrictions on therapy animals?

Answer: The answer is yes. Take note that therapy animals are not covered by laws such as the ADA disability laws, FHAA fair housing laws, and Federal transportation regulations. This means that therapy animals have no rights to housing accommodations and that landlords can impose restrictions that they have for pets.

Do you own an assistance animal? Register your pet. 

The Service Animal Registry of California invites you to have your assistance animal registered in order to designate its status. We also encourage you to take our online classes so you can be fully aware of your rights and gain more knowledge about your support animal.

Finally, we present to you our book entitled, “ASSISTANCE ANIMAL LAWS: LEARN YOUR RIGHTS REGARDING SERVICE ANIMALS, EMOTIONAL SUPPORT ANIMALS, THERAPY PETS, AND OTHER DOGS, CATS, AND ASSISTANCE ANIMALS” to provide you with a complete education on assistance animals.
