[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've actually moved for less, when we had a neighboring pit bull that was terrifying for a number of reasons, and we had small kids who loved to play in the yard (neighbor didn't keep the dog contained so it came over to our yard all the time, despite our attempts to dissuade it and ask owners to contain it). We were absolutely not interested in waiting around to see if this dog escalated with us or worse, our kids, and we sold our house and moved. I realize it could sound like an overreaction to some people, but I really dont want my kids to be the next tragic news story and this dog was dangerous.[/quote]

This is where I am. We now have a neighboring pitbull, adopted during the pandemic, whose owner does not keep the dog well-contained or well-controlled. We are looking to move. Everyone thinks we're crazy to leave our wonderful townhouse community over a dog, but, as PP said, "I really don't want my kids to be the next tragic news story." I have young kids and the dog has already chased one of them through our parking lot. [b](It was off-leash, enough said[/b]). [/quote]

This really sucks that jerks can let their potentially dangerous dogs wander off leash and the solution is that people have to move. It seems like there should be better enforcement. But these pit owners are so narcissistic they think the world is “discriminating” against their dog if they don’t want to tolerate its poorly controlled behavior.

Somehow I wound up on a TikTok video posted by a family trying to get “justice” for their sweet pit bull who was shot by a neighbor. It comes up in the comments that the dog ran into the neighbor’s yard and the neighbors had complained. But their dog was SO sweet and just wanted to say hi or whatever. They even put up a sign with an arrow saying something like “a dog murderer lives here.” There wasn’t an ounce of self reflection about how they got their dog killed by not controlling it. [/quote]
