How many dogs and cats can I have, and do they need to be on a leash?

No more than four cats and dogs in all, per lot. Animals other than ordinary household pets are not allowed, and the Board decides for itself whether a particular pet counts as one.

Outside the house and its fenced yard, a pet must be on a leash. Pets may not run at large, and may not be left unattended in front yards, porches or other unenclosed outside areas. A pet may not make an unreasonable amount of noise or become a nuisance.

At the pool, pets are prohibited except those assisting disabled persons.

That is a summary in plain words. The passages below are what the documents actually say, and they are the authority.
