Has anyone had an emotional support animal (ESA) and lived in an apartment with a no-pet policy? I know the laws for this, but am curious how anyone moved into a new apartment with one or any processes to get the doctor's note.
I'm depressed and have anxiety and PSTD issues; my pets help me. I'm moving from a foreclosure into an apartment. The only apartments I can afford are low-income based, with "no pets allowed" policies. I'm so nervous (anxiety) about this whole situation.

This is a tricky issue because of how landlords who just don't want pets find "legal" ways around it. They're not usually obvious so it's very hard to prove. I have the same problem as you. I have four therapy dogs. One for each of my two foster kids with emotional needs, one for mine and a puppy in training because my son's dog is very elderly and will soon need to have a fill in. I have found that when you're honest and up front and even though you're protected by law, all of a sudden the place is rented to someone else or you're credit wasn't good enough, etc.
