FAQ
An HOA can enforce pet limits in the community. Your HOA dog rules can have limitations on breed, the number of pets, and maximum size or weight. For example, if the community is comprised of families with a lot of young children, you might want to prohibit dangerous dog breeds, such as pit bulls and rottweilers.
Rules and Restrictions: Check the inium's rules regarding pets. Some condos may have restrictions on the types or sizes of pets allowed (eg, no dogs over a certain weight, or no exotic pets). Breed Restrictions: Certain breeds may be prohibited, particularly in condos with shared spaces.
Realtor here. Easiest and most reliable way to determine if a building is pet-friendly is to find the concierge or property management phone number online and ask them.

Unless you live in a condo that has a no pets policy, no agreement can actually forbid you to have a pet. Landlords are allowed to ask if you have any pets, and pick a tenant based on what you say, but once you move in you can do whatever you want. I have a cat, lied about it twice and just moved her in anyways.

What are unenforceable HOA rules? Keep you out of court. Hush up litigation. Discriminate indiscriminately. Enter your home without cause or notice. String you out on the (clothes)line. Fine you for fun. Change rules on the fly. Demand you take down your dish.
Typically, a condo association can't deny a service dog access to the property where all the legal requirements have been met. The COA can't ask a person with a disability accompanied by a service animal to provide documentation about their disability or request to instruct the animal to demonstrate its work.
