20 views and no comments. Come on guys, I need some input. I'm looking to prep my place before I go in search for a new friend.
You can do it. how happy your dog is and how much of your shit gets destroyed is up to you and the amount of time and exercise you allow.
^agree

a leash and a crate.
what kind of equipment are you gonna need in an apartment that you wouldn't need in a house?
if he is not happy and exercised properly you will have a hard time. he will be loud and off the wall probably. some aren't some are. I'd get a carpet mill. they are quiet. but your dog could go ape shit Every time you bring it out.
my suggestion would be to hold off on the bulldog while you live in the apartment. i mean, black did post some good points....but IMO, I think your opening up the possibility of future failure.
the things you want to consider is
1. the property is not yours (unless it is, then i apologize)
2. when your lease is up or when it comes time to move your gonna have a hard time finding a place unless you hide the dog, because damn near most places want nothing to do with bully breeds..
if your renting and ok with dodging lndlords and hiding your dog, then....go for it, but ill warn you.....its a BIG PAIN in the ass! ive been there done that.......
if you want to keep him as a pet, no problem
if you want to do more then thats its almost impossible.
I don't see a problem keeping a pit in an apartment. The only problem would be is, do they allow pitbulls? Some would allow if they're under 30 pounds. When they see a medium-large pit living in their apartment, they'll complain but when it's under 30 pounds, they think its a cutie piewhen I walk my dogs, almost everyone who saw them rather tell me my dogs are cute instead of telling me my sons are cute
If you do decide to keep one, get an extra large foldable cage crate. That way the dog could move around and do what he needs to when you're not around, and still have a dry area to lay on. As for exercise equipment, get an E-mill. Nobody will know its for the dog when they see one of those. And for bite work, make a flirt pole with a hide attach to it. That's all you'll need. You could have him as a pet bull and still compete.
