Size and Weight Restriction

Any stated limit placed by an accommodation provider on the physical size or weight of dogs permitted to stay. This includes numeric weight thresholds, size categories like small dogs only, and breed exclusions that function as size proxies. Size and weight restrictions are permissible when clearly disclosed and reasonably justified by room dimensions, building constraints, or documented safety requirements. Blanket restrictions that exclude dogs falling within or below the family dog benchmark (see definition 2) are non conformant unless the justification is stated in the provider's published policy. An unstated or internal only justification does not satisfy this requirement.
