Would you rent to a Rottweiler owner
We have a 2 bedroom upstairs apartment for rent in Superior WI, and a potential tenant is asking if we would accept renting to a 1 year old Rottweiler owner.
Would like to get others perspective on this, as my first instinct is "no ways"

Who's in the downstairs unit? How would they feel about it? If it was a single family home with a private yard/dog run then maybe it would work. But with multifamily, you need to take into consideration the shared spaces, including how noise travels.
Make sure the owner/handler is responsible. Do they know how to properly care for the pet/animal and will they do so? Do they have renter's insurance that will cover actions of the dog? The dog is still rather young... what about chewing, barking and toilet training? How new are the furnishings in the dwelling? Get a bigger security deposit. And as others said, see how having dogs on the property might impact your insurance coverage.
