Approximately What Percent of Renters Have Dogs?

I am debating whether to accept dogs into a newly renovated triplex. I am seeing that in general that the majority of college students do not have dogs, while many other applicants do have dogs. Are there any solid sources on the percentage of renters with dogs? Approximations from personal experience are welcome. I'm trying to figure out what percentage of renters I am excluding by not accepting dogs. I have porcelain floors and cordless blinds, so the interiors are somewhat dog proofed in that sense. However, on the exterior, I have privacy fenced back yards with designed landscaping, which might get damaged by dogs. Thoughts? Thanks!
