Harassed by downstairs neighbors over my dogs what do
I have two dogs one 40lb the other 65lb. The day my downstairs neighbors moved in they started banging on the ceiling every time my dogs would jump off furniture , which absolutely enrages me. This continued for months mind you they literally don't bark at all. It's only when my dogs move around. I'm no snitch so I never said anything about them banging on the ceiling and they wouldn't open the door for a confrontation. Lo and behold they started complaining to the complex , theyve probably complained three or four times now the place is calling me telling me the neighbors said they cant sleep which is total bull****. What do I do should I pepper for eviction? I pay a **** load for these dogs to live here and the entire complex is pet friendly with a dog park and shiet.

Tell them its just you walking around normally and you cant help it the construction of the building resonates such gentle inertia through the floors
also. be petty. start complaining that they are arguing so loud you can't sleep. complain that they're playing music loud or tv.
Are you a minority? Say they have harrassed you and used racial slurs. If no minority, so you're gay and they've used bigoted slurs. be emotional. use terms like homophobic, bigots, etc.

It's chitty to have two dogs in a cramped little apartment anyways.

Threaten lawsuits against the downstairs tenants and the complex. They're taking microaggressions against you, but you're protected in the macro sense, as it's a pet friendly place. Tell the complex you're going to call the cops for harassment. Let them know it's clear the law is on your side.
Cliffs: Threaten suit and talk to a good lawyer to draft you a cease and desist letter.

Idc what he does tbh. Poor people rentcel problems. But keeping the dogs off the furniture would solve the complaints. Whether he does that or not I couldn't give two fks.

As someone who has lived downstairs in apartments before, yes that’s very annoying. If you have hardwood flooring, consider getting some rugs around. Your dogs probably do this at night as well...

i'm guessing your floors and ceilings aren't sound proofed? put down some rugs and padding under them. you might not realize it, but a dog that big can make a chit ton of noise when jumping or running around, and it can sound like an elephant to someone living below you.
it's not ideal that your neighbors are banging on their ceiling when your dogs make noise, but you'd probably still be in the wrong 9 times out of 10.
