So I visited a friend recently to show them my new puppy. The management at their rental property saw me enter their house with the dog, and assessed an 800 dollar pet deposit fee to them. Literally for just a few hour visit. Do they legally have the right to do this? It's in their contract that they are not allowed to have pets in the house, but I feel like this is borderline extortion. I live in Texas, does anyone know anything I can use to argue this bullshit? Pic related.
You better be paying that shit nigga and not forcing it on your friends. And stop bringing your fucking dog into someone else's property. They could have met you outside at the park dipshit
Did they invite you or did you causally go over? If you just went explain to them that you didn't know they had rules like that, maybe you can fight it off.

Of course I am you salty faggot, and I even waited til the dog was 1 year old and fully trained. KYS fucker, my friends landlord is taking advantage of him. But I guess you have no relation to my plight, since obviously nobody would be your friend. KYS already.

They were aware.
I "spoke" to the manager with my friend. She's an old fat bitch who literally didn't let us finish telling her it was my pet before she REEEEEEE-ed in our face. It's clear she just found a way to get 100 large pizzas out of a situation, and isn't even listening. At this point I'm seeking legal help from a friend but it seems like we have no case. I am just in disbelief in how much of an asshole this lady is.

the hostility shit
I'm presuming if you spoke to an actual lawyer (as in your friend is an attorney) then s/he read the contract and decided there was no case.
If s/he didn't I would re-read the contract closely and see if the fee means if there is a pet LIVING in the residence. If it is unclear, there will be some attorney or way to fight it in court.
But then again, your friends need to live there (presumably) so starting up shit in court would make their lives miserable. Maybe it's better to pay it or negotiate it with the old fatty.

Yeah the agreement stated "aquired pets" on the 2015 copy they originally signed. On the 2016 it states no pets allowed on the premesis. So they are within their rights to assess the fee. At this point I'm looking at the bottom of the barrel, e.g. What constitutes a service dog? But I'm coming up empty. I'm just hoping someone knows a way to gain leverage against a landlord, but I live in Texas, so I really have no rights. Even the fact that I can prove the dog has had a pet fee paid at MY residence, and I have legal ownership of her at another rental property seems to have no meaning. I'm reading the agreement to see if I can catch the landlord out on not holding up their own end of the agreement, but first and foremost I don't want to have my friend evicted, or make any kind of trouble for them.

I'm considering doing minimum 1,000 dollars worth of property damage.
