Listmates, this is not my area so I put it out to the hive. Client rents a “no pets” residence to a new tenant. Immediately upon move in tenant presents a “prescription” from an MD saying tenant needs 2 cats and a dog for emotional support. Client has read
that the script needs to be from a physiatrist not just a regular MD. Personally I thought anything worked, you could print one off the internet and the Landlord could not challenge it. Thoughts?
