Yes, a taxpayer can claim the expense on buying and maintaining a pet as a deduction in certain situations like :
- It is a guided or security dog (pet ) bought for the help of a disabled person like a blind or mentally disturbed
- Pet is used for the security of business premises or business person
For personal security, its cost will not be deducted. Read the detailed article on the pet tax credit.
