I do have to give him points for keeping his dog on a leash and also keeping in not only in a fenced in yard but in a kennel.
However, I just don't trust them. I wouldn't trust a rotti or a dobbie or any other big dog either. I don't want anyone to think I'm singling the breed out but that's just what type of dog that lives next door. And you pretty much hear all kinds of bad stories about pits attacking their owners, other dogs and so on. There's really not that many horror stories about Labs, or Great Danes out there. At least I haven't heard any.

And he has the dog in a Kennel? he is obviously trying all he can to be responsible.. DID IT EVER OCCUR TO YOU HE LOVES HIS DOG TOO?
I would just be extra careful with my girls.. Gucci is within close proximity of Pit Bulls they live at my home.. but he isn't around them he is strictly in the house... why? because even rough play can injur a fragile yorkie.. I definately wouldn't have a problem taking extra care and keeping him away from the neighbors dogs.. after all I keep him away from my own.
I am sorry but I have pits and I get very defensive when people start "Judging" .. my dogs love kids, other dogs, cats and birds.. as well as people. I have been raised with them my entire life and bred them. The only reason Gucci doesn't hang with them is because he's so small. You don't hear news stories about labs and great danes because the media doesn't get a kick out of broadcasting those.. But to be honest one of the most dangerous breeds is a GREAT DANE
as well as a Dalmation, A Husky and the list goes on...
Hope it works out for you.. but I would really consider how he feels about his dog before "Snitching him out" just to be honest. I mean there are people out there with 10 yorkies and they would be deeply hurt if their dogs were taken away because someone didn't like them. What makes a pit bull owner any different? An Irresponsible one I can understand but a law abiding one.. well to me that's different.
