Pet Ownership Sample Clauses
The Pet Ownership clause defines the rules and permissions regarding whether tenants or occupants are allowed to keep pets on the premises. Typically, this clause outlines any restrictions on the types, sizes, or number of pets permitted, and may require prior written consent from the landlord or property owner. It may also specify responsibilities such as pet deposits, cleaning requirements, or liability for damages caused by pets. The core function of this clause is to set clear expectations and boundaries for pet ownership, helping to prevent disputes and protect the property from potential damage.

Pet Ownership. (Policy 7501) Residents are allowed one quadruped and/or two birds. The pet should not weigh more than twenty-five (25) pounds at time of full maturity. Pets are prohibited from GRF facilities, such as clubhouse facilities, library, golf course, health care center, Amphitheater, swimming pool area, Administration building, lobbies and laundry rooms, unless they are certified service animals. In all other permitted areas, the pet must be on a leash not longer than six feet and under the control of and accompanied by a resident or an adult agent of the resident. Guests may NOT bring their pets on the premises. Please do not feed the rabbits or squirrels. While it seems kind to feed the rabbits, it is not. The food for the rabbits is often eaten by the squirrels and by the rats, which then multiply. The coyotes and the raccoons are then attracted to the area to feed on this abundance of small animals (and sometimes even on our pets). In consideration of other residents, please abide by this rule.
Pet Ownership. A project owner of HUD-assisted housing for elderly or handicapped persons may not discriminate against prospective tenants in connection with admission nor against current tenants because a person owns or keeps a common household pet in their dwelling unit. For further instructions and information regarding pet ownership in HUD-assisted projects, refer to HUD Handbook 4350.1, Chapter 32. A.
Pet Ownership. If the residents of the Development are only elderly or handicapped persons, Resident and Owner agree that:
a. Resident is permitted to keep a common household pet in Resident's unit in accordance with the Pet Rules, a copy of which is attached. Any violation of these rules may be grounds for removal of the pet or termination of Resident's tenancy as material noncompliance with the Lease; and
b. Animals used to assist handicapped persons are excluded from the requirements of the Pet Rules. This does not preclude the owner from enforcing state and local health and safety laws, if they apply. Nor does it preclude the owner from requiring that the tenant with a disability who uses an assistance animal be responsible for the care and maintenance of the animal, including the proper disposal of the assistance animal’s waste. Resident agrees to remove from the Development, as soon as is practically possible, but not more than 24 hours after receiving notice from Owner to do so, any pet that Owner reasonably believes is vicious, displays symptoms of severe illness, or demonstrates other behavior that constitutes an immediate threat to the health or safety of the residents of the Development. Unless State or local laws otherwise provide, Owner may enter Resident's unit and remove a pet(s) if Resident refuses to do so after being so notified or if Resident cannot be located in order to provide five-day notice; Owner may then place the pet in a facility that will provide care and shelter for a period not to exceed 30 days. If Resident does not claim the pet during such time, the pet may be destroyed. Resident agrees not to return such pet to the Development without Owner's written approval.
