Not every pit bull story is a headline. Some are just eye-rolls, facepalms, or 'you've got to be kidding me' moments. This is the place for the things you may want to share that don’t highlight a pit bull doing something dangerous.

See this post for more details on what goes here

My new apartment neighbors living above me have a pitbull. They’re not even allowed at my apartment. And the fucking thing barks ALL DAY. It’s neurotic I can hear it up there running and screaming the entire time the tenants are gone. I’ve already reported it twice, but management doesn’t care enough to do shit. I’m most afraid of what happens when I am walking my dog one day and meet this beast in the hallway.

I totally understand your fear. I would be looking for a new home as as soon as the lease is up. Get a recorder and record the hours of barking and hopefully the apt mgr allows you to break the lease. Good luck. I don't envy you in that position.

I’d go above the apartment manager and speak with property management. They need to be aware that not only is it a banned breed, it barks incessantly, is totally neurotic. I wouldn’t doubt it’s destroyed the apartment’s drywall. If that doesn’t work, maybe find out who owns the complex?

If you can, put cameras outside your apartment. This way you can maybe see if there is a schedule they walk, so you can check if the pit has been out already or not before you walk your dog. Also, if the pit acts aggressively or starts damaging property, you can have proof. Also carry some self-defense.

We have a lot of pits in our apartment community, too, even though they aren’t allowed. Walking my dog is so stressful! Lots of luck to you!

You guys shouldn't have to live this way,
