In reply to Ken R.. An ESA letter will generally state whether the person has a "disability" as such term is defined for purposes of the Fair Housing Act.

I livw in Green Bay Wisconsin and I provided a letter from my Doctor stating that I needed an emotional support animal for my depression and anxiety. When I presented that letter to my property manager she stated that had to have the word “disability” in the letter. It did not have the word disability in it so they denied it. Is it legal for them to do this?

If you are trying to qualify your dog as an emotional support animal, then yes, you need an ESA letter from a licensed healthcare professional. It’s irrelevant that you did not qualify your dog as a puppy. The licensed professional would evaluate your needs in the present moment.

Can I get a note from my primary care physician based on my diagnoses from psychiatrists, or does it have to be specifically from a mental health care provider?

In reply to Anna. You should inform your landlord that you are requesting accommodation for an emotional support animal and submit your ESA letter to them.

I have an existing lease that does not allow pets unless agreed upon by the Owner/Agent. A licensed professional has qualified me for an ESA letter and I plan to adopt a pet. How do I initiate the process of adding this addendum to my existing lease? Can I be evicted?

The best thing is to be direct! Your doctor is there to help you. The best person to assess whether you qualify for an ESA letter is a licensed professional that is familiar with your mental health.

How do you go about broaching a conversation with your doc that you need an ESA letter?
