Service Animals & Emotional support- Is animal restriction dead?
Hey guys,
Is anyone noticing a huge uptick in the amount of people applying for apartments who have service and emotional support animals? In just the last 3 months, I swear 7/10 people have had one of the two. I even had one applicant tell me they had 4 service dogs! Literally a small gang of dogs surrounding them at all times.
I have no issues with people who have these, but it feels like it's getting to the point where EVERYONE has one. We even have to disregard our insurance companies strict breed restrictions and risk being canceled if there's ever a claim.
What's everyone doing to offset the risks that are being forced upon us with this new phenomenon? Obviously animal proofing during the rehab is one, but what else?
