American Pit Bull Insurance/Canine Liability Insurance?
Is it absolutely necessary that a personality obtain canine liability insurance for the Pit Bull breed? And if so, where do you catch it? And what do you do if they're not your dogs but temporarily living on your property?
Answers:
That's nonsense. Another road for the corporate insurance companies to make more money. You do not need insurance because you own a pitbull.
Did someone notify you that you needed it?
I don't think that "dog"- will hunt. :) It's a barker!
There are, believe it or not, some municipalities that have enacted what's call BSL--Breed Specific Legislation. This ranges from outright banning of certain breeds (usually pit bull types) to have all kinds of requirements of owners to own their dogs "grandfathered" in so they are legal. One restriction to be precise some times used to make the pit bull owner's life hell is to require a trustworthy amount of liability coverage on the dog. This type of insurance is not easy to find. If you don't know what the laws are contained by your area, you can try to look it up at http://www.municode.com/. Or call your local Animal Control agency to find out what the situation is.
Hopefully, you don't live surrounded by an area that has these stupid law. If you do, you will probably not even be given the option of getting insurance because they are not your dogs. Which means the dogs would hold to be relocated. Sorry. I know it sucks. I hope you don't run into this. Source(s): Pit bull owner and lover
Its not absolutely obligatory.
Do you see this dog as a liability?
If yes then it should be removed from your property and the owner should get a trainer.
Pitts are merely as good as their owners (same goes next to any breed really). So if this dog has the potential to act up simply blame the owner for not properly training him. If breaks, ruins or hurts anything or anyone the owner is legally responsible.
no thats stupid lol. If they are only a temp. on your property later it may raise your house insurance.
