I have an unusual situation at which my downstairs neighbor complaints about my dog walking too loud. I don't know how a dog can walk too loud .My complex accepts all dogs with some breed restrictions. I have a lab. There are several Huskeys here so some dogs are indeed large dogs. When I first moved in I went to introduce my self, told her my name and asked if she liked it here. She said she has lived here along time and likes it very quiet. Didn't even offer her name. My dog is 12 yrs old and doesn't play like a youthful pup. I roll the ball literally 8 times for her and then she is done playing. She doesn't bark, I have asked other neighbors. This lady bangs on her ceiling now when I am playing with my dog. I need some suggestions on how to handle this.

If it's during normal hours, like before 10 pm, either ignore it or bang back. You tried to be friendly and she wasn't interested and if you're playing with your non-barking old dog for like 10 minutes, let her bang. I assume no one else has complaints about your dog and if she complains, I bet it won't be the first time they've heard from her.

It depends on the size of the dog when it comes to noise. I lived below someone with a big dog and it was very loud which is why I glad I moved to a building with no dogs allowed.

1. Other than more carpeting, nothing you can do on your end will abate the problem of a persnickety, quarrlesome downstairs neighbor


2. If your downstairs neighbor intalls a dropped sound absorbing tile ceiling it may help. But he won't and they are exceedingly ugly.


3. Forget Sumo Wrestlers: sell the apartment to Flamenco dancers.


I would go to the board and claim continuing harassment. (Just rip up any notes slid under your door.)

Well the big unwritten rule when you live over top of someone is you cannot workout in your apartment. So sometimes a note is necessary from someone who is living below a person because that is inconsiderate.

I have had many people workout above me...People simple don't care.
My issue now is the downstairs neighbor and his weekly parties.
