JT:If the underlay is only 1/4 meranti or plywood, it is likely glued down and/or nailed every six inches with ring nails.  

I would use sand or 3/4 inch stone before using dirt, you wouldn't want the dirt to compress or compact over time and leave a void under the wall

Also have a sweet but scary Weimaraner watchdog with 1.5 inch claws and serious teeth who acts out by going through drywall in seconds when ignored.)Interview the prospective tenant and the pet together at the property before renting.
