Does anyone suggest or know of a local Insurance Company that will cover “bad dog breeds”? I have done a bit of internet research but all that info is very vague so before I just start calling them all I figured I would ask.
Copied this from a webpage:
The following types of dog are most often considered “bad breeds” by many insurance companies:
•Akita
•Alaskan Malamute
•Chow Chow
•Doberman
•German Shepherd
•Pit Bull
•Rottweiler
•Siberian Husky
•Wolf Hybrid
If any of you own one or more of these breeds of dogs and have an insurance company that covers them please let me know, thanks!

My dog looks like a pitt bull. But isn’t on that list.
I’m in the market as well, and have planned on disclosing my dogs as “mixed breed rescues.” It’s not a lie, as only DNA tests would prove anything otherwise POSSIBLY.
In miami, pit bulls are illegal… However, the city is full of “terrier mix” that look EXACTLY like pit bulls… When I went to register my dog at the pound (Miami law that every dog is registered), the #1 breed waiting for adoption was the pit bull, excuse me… I mean “terrier mix”… Statistically speaking they were by no means the highest occurrence of dog in Miami.
Ok so to my findings State Farm and USAA does, Geico, Allstate and CT Lowndes subs it out…All seemed to be within a 55$ + or - each year. Seems they are all comparable in price around here.

Well I called and asked specifically about Bully Breeds…they said they subbed those out. I made the call yesterday.
I need to keep me and my new-to-me home covered with no surprises if I need to make the claim!
