    I spoke with my neighbors to ask if anyone had complained, and it turns out none of them did. A few of them were so upset about the situation that they actually helped me talk to the landlord directly.

    After a long conversation, it came out that one new tenant had lied, saying my dog was "aggressive" to try to force me out so they could move a family member into my unit. The landlord apologized and tore up the notice completely.

    The best part? Two of my neighbors who also have pets and I decided to start a small pet owners' group in the building. Now we share tips, do little weekend walks together, and even pitched in for an air purifier for the hallway.

    • The_Cantaloupe_24 22h ago I got forced out of my favorite home by a landlord who wanted their relative to live there, even though they had been a family friend for 30+ years... I'm glad you won. And congrats on the new community, props to them for helping you and your dog out!
