## What do you think? Question:

Our Governing rules state only one dog per unit - renters can not have a dog,

A non deeded owner moved into our association as she married a person who was living her for many years (when not in prison) His new wife is not a deeded Shareholder but moved in with not one but two dogs:  
She goes to work WITHOUT THE DOGS but claims they are service dogs,

The DBPR said shareholders have every right to question if these dogs are in fact service/emotional/therapy trained dogs but our Board of Directors who approved these dogs - against shareholders complaints, said it is private and would not allow this review,

We are not interested in WHY these dogs are trained for either service/therapy or emotionless reasons - - only if they are any of these reasons.

I question why this person can go to work - drive a car - without requiring these dogs, can you give advice as to how to find out the truth that I believe are fake - imposters and the Board has created Selective Enforcement,
