We did have someone who wanted to have a dog in training in the dorms, so I guess it is possible, but probably pretty rare.
We do have in our bylaws that service animals are allowed, but she doesn't need this animal herself. There are just so many potential problems with having a dog in a sorority house!

Not at all, never mind the fact that I can't for the life of me figure out what type of aide a pit bull would be trained for.
Reputable, real service agencies do NOT place training puppies in environments they have not researched and approved. Dogs such as guide dogs for the blind are incredibly expensive, specifically bread dogs. They don't just give them to people willy nilly to raise.
Seriously ask for her documentation, especially being a pit bull, that alone as a regular house pet can cause general insurance issues because of their temperament.
