How Does Having A Dog Affect Home Insurance? 
That is a great question ! The answer is no , if your dog has been professionally trained , is not a breed known for violence , and you never have a claim filed because of him or her . The answer is yes , if you have a dog that falls underneath your company 's specified category for dogs at risk for claims from bites . Or worse , if you file a claim because your dog has bitten someone . It is always a good idea to call your agent before purchasing the dog , and find out if the dog can be covered , and to what extent . I hope that helps . Thanks for asking !
