Sued because some “comfort pet” wasn’t allowed or sued because that “comfort pet” caused an incident.

Yes, either way they are screwed but physical harm (and probably psychological effects on top of that) could be the basis for significant damages. There already was one guy who got bit in the face by a “comfort pet”. I wonder if he’s now comfortably retired?
Hope he sued the owner but it’s th AL’s with deep pockets for allowing the pet in the first place who would have been sued anyway to deny it from boarding.
