Insurance Companies Don’t Like Dogs?
Did you know that you may have to pay more home insurance if you own a dog? Some insurance companies are bumping up their rates for dog owners. Some will even decline you home insurance depending on what breed of dog you own!
The main reason for this, is because of the rising costs associated with dog bite liabilities.
In some states, there is a law stating that insurance companies can not discriminate against particular dog breeds. Some insurance companies will give discounts if your dog has gone to obedience school or wears a muzzle.
