A guest showed up with what she is calling a ESD. She did not tell me and she is here for a week

A guest showed up for a week with what she is calling an ESD dog.  I am brand new to Airbnb but I definetly say no pets because the carpet will have to be cleaned because the next guest has allergies.  Plus I do not like someone not mentioning this detail when I asked who was coming.  In California the law has changed and you do not have to accept ESD animals.   Thanks for input
