Do you have a dog that is not covered by home owners insurance? Well we just found out some terrific news from the AKC (American Kennel Club)! Nationwide Insurance is issuing homeowners insurance to owners of breeds previously prohibited by the company, providing the dog passes the AKC Canine Good Citizen test.
"Nationwide has begun to allow the owners of certain prohibited dog breeds to attain homeowners insurance if they provide an original copy of a certificate demonstrating successful completion of the AKC Canine Good Citizen program. This provision is currently available in limited areas and provided the applicant meets traditional underwriting requirements. The Canine Good Citizen program demonstrates responsible dog ownership and we certainly hope this change will prove successful."
(see original article)
Note: at the moment, only specific Nationwide Insurance locations are participating.
Here is the link to the AKC Canine Good Citizens information page.
Wooohoooo for smart insurance companies!
