        Hi There, We have a no pets by-law, currently in place but someone wants to get round this by training an assistance animal even though i know they are not disabled, is this possible? Ta

        By laws mean nothing compared to the DDA 1992..

        Question:  How do you know they are not disabled?

            Replying to the original post…  Although not a solicitor, i have experience in this area.

            You are not permitted to ask what sombody’ss disability is = discrimination

            what the doctor wrote ” “is advised to obtain an assistance animal to deal with the symptoms of the condition.” is sufficiant.

            you casting your judgement ”    I have met this person and they appear to have no physical disability and he has a partner….   so what??? you are not a clinician…..  disabilities are also hidden….  ( showing your ingnorance )

            then to say ” The purchaser is knowingly moving into a small complex where the majority of owners clearly do not want pets on the property, but wants to put their (presumed) needs above others. ”

            101 lession…  A guide dog, hearing dog, or assistant dog, or any other animal trained to help eliveiate the dissability is not classified as a pet – they have rights under the Dissability Discrimination act 1992,  in short as any of these animals are considered a medical requirement, it would be no different according to law, if you were to say to an owner, we dont like your walker mobility aid, we order you to get rid of it, or prevent them from using it.

            In short the 1992 DDA outweighs any strata by laws…..  so for those of you who think, we wont have any assistant animals in our building premises…. get ready to lose in court… simple truth,  plus the Humans Rights and equal opportunity commission just wait to hear these delightful stories…
