Our coop does not allow dogs of any breed. However there are a lot of not-a-dogs that live in our buildings. We call them not-a-dogs because they obviously cannot be dogs because when applying for purchasing in our building, you sign and notorize a document that says you do not or will not harbor any pets, specifically dogs. When the home inspector comes to your home and sees evidence of a dog, your application will automatically be rejected.
Some people who have signed this contract, decide the will own a dog anyways. They have even challenged it to courts of law. For me the only part that bothers me is that someone agrees to something and then renigs on it.

The "Pet Law"
In New York City (Administrative Code of the City of New York Section 27-2009.1) and Westchester County (Laws of Westchester County Section 694), statutes commonly known as the "Pet Law" give tenants in all multiple dwellings, including cooperatives and most condominiums, as well as rental housing, and government subsidized housing, the right to keep a pet, even if there is an applicable "no pet" clause in the lease.
Under the "Pet Law", if a landlord fails, within three months of his knowledge of a tenant's open and notorious harboring of a pet, to enforce any applicable "no pet" provision, then any such provision is deemed void. The law applies to unit owners, as well as renters, in co-ops and condos, whether private or government subsidized.
