Most will if you want to pay the premiums
Nope. If you do find one the cost will probably be astronomical. It’s just not fair, breed discrimination. Good luck.
If they know about the dogs, you’re toast.
A lot of home insurance agencies will just make you pay a higher premium. My suggestion is to go to an independent insurance agent, they can shop around all of the insurance companies and find you one that will allow pits, for the lowest price possible.
My parents did that when they bought their house, because they foster Rotts. The independent agent did all of the work, and got them the best deal.
USAA doesn’t care what breed of dog you own and they only up your premium if your dog does do something. But you have to be military to get their insurance.
Local insurance places usually don’t care about the breed and they will be cheaper than paying some premium to other companies. Since at lest 30 million homes in America own a pitbull we could make quite an impact if we didn’t use those companies who charge higher premiums for anything. USAA is a great way to go if you can get it, it was almost worth joining the military for all in itself
Goodluck!
I think state farm
Allstate is the only one I’ve heard of that practices no breed discrimination whatsoever. Most companies will cover your dog, but the prices are exorbitant and there are restrictions, like muzzles or leashes.
Good luck and God bless!
