White lie?

You could sue I guess, but if you violate their policy, they are the ones that have the rights to drop you (hypothetically speaking). This is why it's so important to find out what they mean by "Pit bull" and which breeds are explicitly allowed. Because the "pro pit bull" side has gone so far out of their way to promote the "pit bull as no such breed", basically ANY dog that some one wants to call a "pit bull" can be a "pit bull". So you have to find out if the insurance company considers Dogos to be "pit bulls or a breed like..." (based on the wording your land lord gave you). I still think the simplest bet is just ask your land lord, "Can I have this breed? Does your insurance say it's ok?" If he says yes, get it in writing.

All about what is acceptable risk to you Kevin. You could take your chances and hope that nothing ever comes of it and take the attitude that it is better to ask forgiveness then permission or cross that bridge if and when you should come to it sort of philosophy. On the flip proactive side you could ask the landlord point blank and say you want in writing that Dogos are allowed. One step further like Mary said is to make sure that the insurance company is ok with that because the landlord could say sure it is ok with him because he has no clue but in reality the insurance company considers Dogos to be “pit bulls:" and you could get screwed.

You can thank the pit bull is not a breed crowd for the large net cast!

Thanks a lot everyone, I'm waiting for a call from my landlord now. I'll talk to him and find out where to go from there. I really appreciate all the help and assistance.
