Can My Landlord Do This? (discuss.online)

I'm looking into getting a therapy animal, a dog. This dog will be trained by a licensed companion animal training breeder near me. When I spoke to my landlord they said no pets including therapy animals.
Is this legal at all?

I'm in the United States.

While not a "working" dog, emotional support animals are protected by law for housing.

Even with a "no pets" policy, they cannot reject/evict someone with a legit therapy animal.

You cant bring your emotional support animal into a business. Only working dogs allowed.

I believe this depends on the state/local laws.
