The Association shall have the right to require that any pets be registered with it and may adopt such additional reasonable rules and regulations with respect to animals as it may deem proper. Any person who causes an animal to be brought or kept in the Condominium shall indemnify and hold harmless the Association from the damage, loss of liability which might accrue to the Association as a result of the presence of such animal in the Condominium regardless of whether the animal's presence is permitted.
