fewer and fewer HOA communities allow owners to maintain dogs. Those that do have weight limits. Most do not allow tenants to maintain dogs, even if the owner has approved.
She came up on the radar when she appeared on screen and potentially made the HOA management look bad.
Now they are aware of her dogs. Most likely they have a rule which does not allow tenant owned dogs.
She likely has no recourse.
And technically, the HOA manager should be in contact with the property owner. The burden to cause removal rests with the property owner. Any fines levied due to the presence of tenant dogs will be levied against the owner; with a lien possible if the fines are not paid.
If she wants to keep the dogs, she should move.
The owner will not remain silent for long once he gets notice and fines commence.
Harsh Reality
