Tenant wants a german shepherd
I just moved a tenant in yesterday. Young couple with a small child. They seem very nice and easy to work with. They said they would like to get a pet in the future, specifically a german shepherd (puppy). I know nothing about dogs, except that they are considered an aggressive breed.
I called my insurance company and they don't have any restrictions. If the dog bit anyone my liability insurance would cover it. The renters also have renters insurance if it matters. I am more worried about what an 80+ pound dog can do to my property.
What do you guys think? I am leaning towards telling them no...
