Would you rent to prospective tenants with a Blue heeler/ACD?

I have a family of 4, mom, dad, 2 kids. They have checked out 100% & seem very very qualified. The only thing that I’m unsure about is, they have a Blue heeler. I’ve heard these dogs to be sort of protective, of their families, & territory. Advice would be appreciated. Insurance isn’t what I’m worried about, just worried about the potential of me, or maintenance not being able to gain access to the house without the tenants being home. I don’t believe in crating dogs really, but may have to require it

@Account Closed in the rare case that you have to go over for inspection or do repairs, the renters will have to make accommodations to make sure it'll be safe for you or the repair person.  I allow animals and have never had an issue with this situation.  Usually the tenant is home to meet the repair person.  I have the repair company directly contact the tenant to schedule.  Make sure you charge your normal pet deposit and pet fee.
