My jurisdiction is: MA
We moved into an apartment and signed a lease that states we are allowed 1 dog in the unit. Before signing the lease we were told by the owners that we were allowed a dog that was lease the 20 pounds.
After moving in one of our neighbours complained that we aren't allowed a pet under their Condo Association Rules. We didn't receive a copy of the rules until after we moved in (the neighbour posted a copy on our front door).
Apparently the Condo Association Board met last week and told the Landlord that we need to pay the Condo Association $200 a month or give up the dog.
Is the owner responsible for the $200 because they didn't provide us with a copy of the Condo Regulations and told us we were allowed the dog?
If we refuse to pay the $200 can we be fined or evicted?
