Your dog is more than just a pet, it’s a family member. Seeing our dogs as a part of our family can make it difficult to view your dog as a potential liability. Unfortunately, even the most cared for, loved, and well-trained dogs can cause an accident. Something as harmless as a playful nip or digging on your neighbor’s property can result in a messy, time-consuming, and potentially devastating lawsuit. Dog-related damage is the leading cause of homeowner’s insurance claims. In 2011, the average animal liability claim was for about $30,000. That’s why animal liability coverage is an essential part of being a responsible pet owner. Many municipalities require an animal liability policy if a dog has been deemed potentially dangerous or dangerous.
Many insurance companies limit dog bite insurance coverage, restrict certain breeds from coverage, or exclude animal liability coverage altogether. Whether your dog has a bite history or is a breed commonly excluded from homeowner’s coverage, DogGoneInsurance.com will provide you with the coverage you need. |
