Of course - but probably not for damage done by some dogs known for their problematic characters.

Of course you can get homeowners insurance! The only difference is if you have certain type of dogs such as an akita, orr pit bull, etc... You will probably be paying more due to the liability that comes along with the dog. Otherwise, if you have such dogs like a poodle or lab, you can paying less because insurance companies look at that as an extra form of security (i.e. it alerts neighbors and nearby people of intruders).

absolutely... there just might be some extra parts of insurance your not elligible for...
and btw... say you dont tell them that you had a dog.... and your dog bites the neighbor... the neighbor sues you and OR files a claim against your insurance.... if it goes to insurance, theyre going to say "but, mr so & so doesnt HAVE a dog" and voila - your screwed with a lawsuit... OR your insurance might say, 'oh, mr so & so doesnt have a dog" and not cover you...
what would be the point of getting insurance that may or may not cover you, with something that could very well happen....
and! insurance would cover you even against something stupid like-- say your Dog knocks someone over on the stairs of your house, they fall down, break a leg- yep, homeowners ins covers that - so YOU dont have to pay out of pocket fees for medical bills

You can get home owners insurance with ANY breed of dog. If you have certain breeds such as pit bull, rotti, german shepard etc it will be much more expensive and harder to find. Ask your insurance agent, your vet, your local humaine society for the name of insurance companies that insure these breeds.

Yes. The type of dog however can make the premium higher because of more risk (Pitbulls and similar breeds)
