Any type of dog can be a service dog. The most common service dog breed is the Labrador Retriever. It also depends on the temperament of the dog. For example, you would not want a highly energetic dog who does not listen to commands to become a service dog. A dog should be properly trained and (and possibly certified) to become a service dog.
You don't approach a service dog. If you want to interact with a service dog you need to approach the handler and ask if it is ok for you to visit with their dog. They may or may not give permission.

Your resolution lies with the board. Service dogs may be covered in the By-laws or in the declaration. Certainly, the 'house rules' govern service dogs. If there is no document that covers service dogs, and the animal's behaviour is not a threat to the community, and the board wants to accommodate the dog, it may remain. A resolution detailing the conditions for the animal's residence with a board vote is in order. Weight limits for dogs protect the community and the owner, who must potentially carry the dog out in the case of an emergency. What approvals were given when the service dog became a member of the household? What permissions, proofs and requirements were established? In order to evict the dog, the board must prove that the dog's residency violates the 'rules' and that there has been no accommodation given for the animal.
