Depends on the neighbor. Are they good "pet" people? Will they care for and socialize the dog correctly, or throw it in the back yard and pretty much ignore it? All of which makes no difference to the breed of the dog, of course. The best dog I ever had was a Staffordshire. He was the sweetest, most loving, and one of the most submissive (to humans) dogs I've ever seen. I still miss him. Even the vet cried when he had to be put down (old age).
