Pennsylvania and Michigan prohibit an insurance company from discriminating by breed.
Check the two links below for tips on finding homeowners insurance. State Farm varies. I know for a fact that you are required to answer a question on whether or not you own a dog. I have a mixed breed pit bull and my agent is well aware that I have the dog because he has seen it and I'm insured. But I've heard other people say that State Farm would not cover them.

Farmers Insurance renters applications do not ask if you own a dog. Farmers liability covers act of your pets. Never volunteer any additional information to an insurance company than what is asked for or necessary.

Technically yes but you might have to go to a non-standard market. All of the standard carriers (Travelers, Farmers, Montgomery, Donegal, etc) that I know will not write a renters policy if the owner has a pitbull. There are non-standard markets available but coverage will be much more expensive.

It depends on where you live.
In most states, there's an essential property plan that will provide coverage for property, though they will also probably exclude liability (either entirely, or with a limitation regarding the animal.)
In Virginia it's called the Virginia Property Insurance Association, in West Virginia is the WV FAIR Plan. As far as I know, all states have them.

renters coverage covers your very own residence. It does no longer cover any injury that your canines might do to people. That criminal accountability falls on the owner of a house, that's why maximum of residences have breed regulations, in the event that they permit canines in any respect.

No. Pitt Bulls are on every prohibited dog list I've ever seen. They're also on MY Farmers list, as a prohibited breed.
I'd guess that the guy who's son sells Farmer's, hasn't seen the list.

Farmers insurance will if you do not have a previous bite claim.
