dog discrimination...after 3mos?

Posted by sl on September 28, 1998 at 09:58:17:

Hi all. I have imported a dog for breeding and
showing. I was primarily going to leave the
dog with a relative, because my lease stats that
I cannot have a dog. However, when I purchased the dog,
The super of the building never mentioned that I cannot
have the dog, possibly because they own a dog and many other
tenants own a dog as well. I let my dog stay, and
on several ocassions, I have come across my super
who has never mentioned that I cannot have a dog.
In fact we have actually had casual conversations
about our dogs and have let them play together.

All of a sudden, because my dog has had an accident or two on the
sidewalk of our building, the super has asked me to not let that
happen, and has also threatened me by impling the rules
on my lease, that I cannot own a dog in the building.
As he has stated HE lets me SLIDE because other tenants own
dogs.

I am wondering if there are any laws that protect me since he has
not complained about the dog and in fact he is simply
discriminating against me, acting as if he can pick and choose
which dogs stay and which don't?

If anyone can offer any info please email me or post it here.
Any info is helpfull.

Thanks in advance.
