Do you live in an apartment complex? or a development with a homeowners asso??

I just moved out of a development of town houses and let me tell you... The management would have NEVER stood for that!!

My neighbor did not pick up after their dog.... They were fined! And when the fine did not drive the point home the management sent them a notice... explaining that their next violation would result in termination of theirs pets lease. so if they were caught leaving their dogs waste on the property again... the dog had to go.. or they could go with the dog! And they were serious! We had alot of dog owners in that complex!! We played by the rules!! If a dog snapped at someone, it would be an instant removal from the property! You were made aware of the terms when you moved in! They made me feel very safe.. I never worried about my daughter walking around with all of those dogs out there... I know they were good dogs!

I would run! To your landlord!!! I would have that dog removed right away!!! I'm sure they are not aware that they let a LARGE UNPREDICTABLE DOG move in to that unit!!! And the owner admits that they are "training it not to bite!" That to me says that IT BITES NOW!!!! BIG RED FLAG!!!!

I would not wait until someone gets hurt..... What if he had bitten you??? Or one of your Babies??? I can't even think about it!
