Trying to keep my home and dog (MD)
Okay here's the deal.
I OWN a condo in MD and a pit bull, and now everyone is scared of getting sued and people want me to get rid of my dog.
My dog Vladimir is 2 years old and needs personalized medical attention, so he's not going anywhere else without me.
Some people on the condo board have suggested that if I keep him muzzled whenever he's outside of my condo then they will allow him to stay. I'd really rather it didn't come to that, he hates muzzles and so do i, but this ruling has put me between a rock and a hard place.
At least I have a lot of fellow condo owners who recognize how sweet my dog is, but still this is america and the lawyers rule our minds and bodies through fear.
We've lived here for a year and a half, and I got a special exception for his size (over 25lbs) as a mandate before I took out my mortgage, but that doesn't cover this new law.
Some people say that "it's just a conversation" that I'm supposed to have with my condo board next week, but I suspect they are going to push this muzzle thing hard as an ultimatum. Are there any alternatives I can present?
I want to try suggesting a pronged training collar.. if that doesn't work maybe a gentle leader since those don't snap the jaw shut unless you tug on it, but I'm not happy with this situation at all!
