#pittie problems

We need a new home. Our apartment complex has come under new ownership/management and they have decided that pets over 20 pounds are a no-go. My husband and I are not letting our 21lb cat and our 45lb dog go, so we have to move. Yes, there are a few good no-kill shelters around, but Pounce and Bear are our babies (Kiwi, too but he's a pipsqueak and is fine for the apartment). And I'm afraid that Bear could still end up with someone that would hurt him or use him as a fighting dog. And thus far, no apartments will take us because of Bear- too big, and a pit. We aren't opposed to buying a place, but we don't have any money for a down payment, nor time really to put into fixing up a place.. Because yeah, I totally needed some more stress.
