Rental applicant with Pitbulls- Jacksonville FL

[Basilio Alcantara]

Anybody knows an insurance company that will cover me as a landlord for tenants that have Pitbulls? I have a good applicant for one of my rentals but he has two Pitbulls registered as "emotional support animals" and I'm trying to find out how protect myself from such liability. Not sure how to proceed on this case.

I use two different insurance companies for my rentals.  NREIG prohibits a number of breeds including Pitbulls.  State Farm does does not have a list of prohibited animals.  I make sure the tenants provides animal insurance to cover bites or damage to the unit.
