Will your pet raise your homeowner’s insurance?

Many breeds of dogs that are known to bite could raise your homeowners insurance. Some insurance companies may refuse to cover them period. Insurance companies pull reports from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to determine what breeds go on these lists.

Some companies have developed what they call the “blacklist”, here is one of those lists that I came across.

  • Pit bull
  • Rottweiler
  • German shepherd
  • Husky

  • Chow chow
  • Great Dane
