You can also request to see the documentation provided by the verifying agency...which should provide a picture of the dog, the owner, and the type of certification.

Renter said we have no pets. Our service dog is necessary and is not considered a pet.

Let's be clear here for people who don't read the links.
A service animal is not classified as a pet, period. Therefore it is illegal to refuse to rent to a person with a service or comfort animal (rare exceptions) Allergies in the home owner or future renters does not change the law. The disabled person's need for a service animal takes legal priority over your allergies. You may NOT charge a pet cleaning fee and the animal is not a pet. If there are actual damages, those are recoverable just as they would be if they were created by a human. The law is linked above. Perhaps the reason a prospective renter may not disclose their service animal is that it would result in not getting the unit with some other reason given when it really was the issue of an animal. https://portal.hud.gov/hudportal/doc...heo2013-01.pdf |

I care about my fellow humans and their animals. I do not care about those who play upon my emotions without true cause.

Ownership of property goes all the way back to the ten commandments, when people were commanded to not steal or covet others' property. But more and more people place themselves above such wisdom of Judeo-Christian belief and values. One day they'll face their Creator and account for their lying, disrespect, and defiance. Till then all we can do is not vote for lawmakers who resent private property ownership and who write laws with loopholes that encourage and empower liars. |

I doubt that very much. And most disabled people do not want to be pitied or would ever take advantage of anyone for anything. It is challenging enough to have something that isn't working right and usually people who are disabled are very sensitive and caring. But people can and do take advantage of laws made to help others. Sadly that happens. We ALL need to be respected.

The renter definitely is a low life sneak. Don't waste your money on lawyer, just get the place professionally cleaned and deduct the money from their security deposit. I assume this is a short term rental and the people will be gone before an attorney would be able to accomplish anything. Change the wording in your lease to read "no pets or animals of any kind".
