Pets - Service Animals and Comfort Animals
Is there a difference between a service pet and a comfort pet? If there is a difference are the regulations regarding rental properties the same? Can pet fees still be applied? Lastly, what are the regulations regarding vicious breeds for comfort/support/service animals.
If you've have knowledge or experiences with this I would appreciate your input.

So for further clarification it seems that a "pet" fee does not apply. However, we have dog fees; is it not still a dog at that point? Furthermore, for a person with disabilities we would obviously allow for them to make reasonable accommodations to the property as necessary to accommodate their needs; but that would be at their expense. Why would this not fall into that category regarding a dog fee? ie: they can have the dog but would be required to pay the dog fee
Lastly I happen to notice miniature pony on the list, I'm not sure I can even fathom how that would work say in a multi-unit property in the middle of town.
