What It Means When a Dog Is Declared Dangerous

A "dangerous" or "potentially dangerous" dog designation is made by a local authority, often after an incident. The exact definition and the obligations that come with it vary by city, county and state.

Insurance Requirements for Dangerous Dog Owners

Some cities, counties and states require owners of dogs declared dangerous to carry liability insurance up to a set amount. The rules and coverage amounts vary by location, so check with your local animal control.

What the Policy Covers

A canine liability policy can pay for medical expenses and legal claims if your dog injures another person, as well as damage your dog causes to someone else's property. Learn more on our dog bite insurance page.
