was founded in 2011 by a landlord in Minneapolis, MN who realized that her properties were among the few that accepted Pit Bull Type Dogs. After she removed breed and weight restrictions in her properties, she adopted her first Pit Bull Type dog named Tate (left) and later Persia (right). Through her passion to promote inclusive pet policies – a campaign to end housing and insurance discrimination was started. Through a team of volunteers in Minneapolis and around the country, bumper stickers were shared and displayed by supporters. This campaign lead the volunteers to create a housing database of rentals that accept Pit Bull Type Dogs. In 2014, Shannon Glenn joined the campaign and moved forward with creating a non-profit organization, My Pit Bull is Family. Since 2014, the organization has grown through increasing volunteers in Minneapolis and around the country, has attended events both locally and nationally, managing the Nation’s largest database of rentals that accept all dogs, and is now viewed as a leader in animal welfare. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/623292c5eff663213f53262b/559d6812-4ed0-41d4-a953-99b36fa98ff4/35389352_1241438192626082_6248152185511608320_n.jpg About - What We Are Focusing On My Pit Bull is Family is focused on ending housing and insurance discrimination for ALL dogs regardless of what they look like or their perceived breed. We know that all dogs are individuals and that the families that love them deserve a place to call home, together. Each month our volunteer team contacts dog-friendly apartments in various cities across the US to gather data on pet policies. We know that lack of pet-friendly housing is a top reason why families surrender their dog to shelters and rescues. We believe that through providing resources to families searching for housing, through partnering with local organizations to provide wrap-around services – we will be able to reduce the number of dogs that enter our shelters and rescues each year. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/623292c5eff663213f53262b/fb290f49-5826-4c54-acde-f352c0a89d14/unsplash-image-EtFBxSdd-iw.jpg About - Our Mission To keep families together by advancing dog-inclusive rental & insurance policies and providing essential pet retention programming. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/623292c5eff663213f53262b/6e9c9da0-44ed-4d40-9aa3-177bed2fb353/shutterstock_2033484554-min.jpg About - Our Vision To create communities where pets & people can live together at home without facing discriminatory policies and where pet support services are equitable & accessible. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/623292c5eff663213f53262b/5c243482-dbf0-4758-9d41-0ba2e4a04587/200826446_341261027405873_8553878452803760656_n.jpeg About - Our Values Community - We strive to empower our community to challenge the status quo while breaking down barriers and stereotypes to pet ownership.

My Pit Bull is Family is not a rescue organization, however, we do partner with amazing organizations around the country that you can connect with to learn more about their owner surrender programs and additional resources. On the flip side – we do not adopt animals out – but our partners would LOVE for you to meet their adoptable pups. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/623292c5eff663213f53262b/b1ff2d49-4044-4cc4-9977-ef84073468f6/272435420_4028612333908640_7698578448649441186_n.jpeg National Community PALS - We Know That Through Building Partnerships And Coalitions – Collectively We Will Be Able To Provide Support To Pet Owners Everywhere. We want to link pet families to organizations and businesses in their local communities so that there can be a safety net and a creation of pet owner support programs across the country.

Alternatively, you can interact with the list of states on the left or right and it will automatically zoom in to your state of interest. Blue dots = Properties with inclusive pet policies. Red dots = Properties with restrictive pet policies. We believe that pet-friendly rentals need to be inclusive of all breed types, sizes, and weights. Dogs should not be discriminated against based or their physical appearance. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/623292c5eff663213f53262b/f36c2da8-a8b9-4c80-8c45-d7db32cf7ff7/shutterstock_2033428658-min.jpg National Rental Research Dashboard - To interact with the dashboard, 1) Filter by state or listing type on the top bar. This will show you all listings we’ve researched in that state and pet policy metrics pertaining to that state. 2) Alternatively, click on a state in the minimum fees chart to see the number of listings we’ve collected with the additional pet information. Blue circles = Clusters of properties with predominantly inclusive pet policies. Red circles = Clusters of properties with predominantly restrictive pet policies. We believe that transparency in rental pet policies is important and can help us achieve the larger goal of advocating for truly pet-inclusive housing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/623292c5eff663213f53262b/958e0732-fdbb-4de5-ace5-63b3a2f573ac/277303387_4201416716628200_6830818427378216422_n.jpeg National Rental Research Dashboard - We have found that there are over 25 types of dogs commonly discriminated against in rental pet policies Cane Corso, Rottweiler, Irish Water Spaniel, Pit Bull Type, Sheepdog, German Shepherd, Doberman, Bouvier Des Flanders, Belgian Malinois, Akita, Dalmatian, Komondor, Giant Schnauzer, Belgian Tervuren, Wolf Hybrid, Saint Bernard, Chow, Presa Canario, Husky, Bull Terrier, Great Dane, Alaskan Malamute, Shar Pei, American Bulldog, or a mix of any of the above. https://www.mypitbullisfamily.org/housing daily 0.75 2023-06-18 https://www.mypitbullisfamily.org/nmprc daily 0.75 2026-04-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/623292c5eff663213f53262b/b53fec13-84d5-488d-bdfa-0bcad284c157/New+Space+.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/623292c5eff663213f53262b/15eee6e7-adab-4f36-a5f3-c82b4c125d23/MPBIF_logo_NoMiPRC-v2_wBorder-1.png North Minneapolis Pet Resource Center - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.mypitbullisfamily.org/press daily 0.75 2022-04-11 https://www.mypitbullisfamily.org/blog daily 0.75 2022-04-11 https://www.mypitbullisfamily.org/breed-restrictions-are-wrong daily 0.75 2022-04-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/623292c5eff663213f53262b/07177374-d8d0-4678-9800-8f3b150b6a3c/unnamed-705x705.jpg Breed Restrictions Are Wrong The Ryan Animal Rescue Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization founded by NFL cornerback, Logan Ryan and his wife, Ashley.

As a Landlord, you have the opportunity to preserve the bond between responsible owners and their family dogs, and you can profit from it! Retention– Turnover is expensive. Families with large dogs have put a lot of time and effort into their search, and are likely looking to stay awhile. Retention of excellent tenants saves you time, money, & effort finding a new tenant and eliminates risk. Additional Revenue – Pet Rent. As expenses and taxes for rental properties are high, additional revenue streams can be very helpful. Require pet rent from your tenants to help cover costs. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/623292c5eff663213f53262b/c7f630ef-9f80-4484-b97c-64af412a5f1d/Screen+Shot+2022-04-19+at+11.29.52+AM.png Tips for Landlords PET-FRIENDLY HOUSING IS GOOD FOR YOUR BUSINESS We have the research, resources, and toolkits to help you take advantage of the opportunity in ways that benefit your residents and your residents' lives. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/623292c5eff663213f53262b/e0b4d38c-1ece-4713-9cc7-bd8f71e33423/Page-14-from-BFM-JulyAugust-2016-1-798x1024.jpg Tips for Landlords - A Step-by-Step Guide to a Successful Tenant Search This is your chance to build your community – Use these keys to find great tenants.

Great references include; Dog trainer, veterinarian/technicians, past landlord, neighbors, groomer, daycare provider/walker, family members, and friends. Veterinary records and proof of registration.

Landlords have a long list of valid reasons not to rent to pet owners: damages caused by pets, barking, off-leash issues, community complaints, etc. Be understanding of their concerns, let them know how you plan to avoid these problems, and most importantly, sweeten the deal. Let them know what is in it for them! Be an extraordinary tenant. Remember: Keep your dog on a leash Pick up after your pets Create an exercise schedule Have a backup plan for bad behavior Follow all posted pet policies https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/623292c5eff663213f53262b/1649965583266-6H0YLVVZ4VJGXO824A2C/unsplash-image-FVBNSmN531w.jpg Tips for Tenants - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/623292c5eff663213f53262b/1649966189584-AVI72VXEXM8ZYN6G1PP9/unsplash-image-xOUs1VJnIP0.jpg Tips for Tenants - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.mypitbullisfamily.org/pet-support-resources daily 0.75 2024-05-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/623292c5eff663213f53262b/1be6f2ce-2e4d-43b1-8c94-10fef2875d4c/Pets-FindHelp-stacked-logo-blue.png Pet Support Resources - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.mypitbullisfamily.org/community-pet-clinics daily 0.75 2026-01-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/623292c5eff663213f53262b/f2e78c12-8467-4929-a985-5d82b4a44f31/Community+Clinic+-+Service+Menu+2024+%281%29.png Community Pet Clinics - 2026 Community Pet Clinics Community Pet Clinics in 2026 will be held on the 3rd Sunday of each month at our North Minneapolis Pet Resource Center Location - 2825 N 2nd St, MPLS, MN 55411. 2026 Clinic Dates: Jan 18, Feb 15, March 15, April 19, May 17, June 21, July 19, Aug 16, Sept 20, Oct 18, Nov 15, Dec 20 Appointments for each clinic open on the 1st of the month at Noon.
