How to Beat Breed Bias in Apartment Applications

Applying with a German Shepherd

Shepherds show up on many insurance-driven restricted lists, and their size and alert barking add to the worry. Training is your best argument, and this breed tends to show it off well. Bring obedience certificates, describe how your dog behaves around visitors and in hallways, and offer a meet-and-greet. Add your renters insurance details and vet records, and ask whether a pet addendum or larger deposit could work.

FAQ

German Shepherd Resume Questions

Does a pet resume help when renting with a German Shepherd?

It can't guarantee approval, but it gives a landlord something better than a breed name on a form: your Shepherd's habits, records, and a reference, all on one friendly page.

What should I put on a pet resume?

Your pet's age and weight, vaccination and spay or neuter status, training, daily routine, a reference, and how to reach you. Only include what's true, because a landlord may ask for proof.

Can a resume get around a German Shepherd breed restriction?

No. If a lease or insurance policy bans a breed outright, a resume won't override it. It's most useful where a landlord has discretion, so ask whether the rule is a firm one and whether a pet interview is possible.

How much is the resume?

It's included with the $19.90 Superstar Pack, along with 36 images. Use any of them as the resume photo and download a PDF with no watermark.
