I have been living in my apt building which contains 3 seperate apts... with my girlfriend and her son who is 11. We have lived here for 2 years with massive turnover when it comes to tenants on the other floors. We live on the second floor and about 4 months ago new tenants moved in above us. When we moved in our landlord questioned us about a cat we owned, but now these new tenants have 3 yessssssssss 3 pit bulls... and lied to my landlord about them.. they have proceeded to build a pen out in the small back parking area that only has 5 parking spots to begin with. We do not go out the back anymore and dont even want to park out back because they just begin to bark viciously,,, is this allowed I mean.//... its actually a little scary... not to mention the constant running back and forth at all times of the day and late night right above us while we are trying to sleep/.

Unless there is an ordinance that bans the breed, it's up to the agreement between the landlord and the tenant. The landlord would have to be pretty thick to not notice a dog pen in the back of the property. Complain to the landlord about the dogs, but don't expect much if he authorized them.

Hopefully your landlord's insurance company does not have a banned breeds list because they'd drop his policy in a heartbeat.
Your landlord foolishly allowed the dogs, in an upstairs apartment, and now your stuck with them on a daily basis.
I can tell you now, it ain't going to get better.
If the dogs are left outside without food, water and proper shelter, call animal control. In my area, animal control will investigate constant daytime barking compaints. If the dogs are left out overnight and bark, call the police and file a report.
If you do not have a fixed term lease, start looking for a new place and give proper written notice once you find one.
