Yes. In most cases it does.
If a dog bites you in Pennsylvania, the owner’s homeowners insurance may pay. That can include ER bills, lost pay if you miss work, and help with scars.
But not every insurance plan is the same. Some pay only a small amount. Others will not cover certain dog breeds at all. And many insurance companies try to pay as little as they can.
What breeds may not be covered?
Some insurance policies won’t pay if the bite came from what they call a “high risk” breed. This often includes:
- Pit Bulls
- Rottweilers
- Dobermans
- German Shepherds
- Chows
- Akitas
- Mastiffs
- Wolf mixes
They may also deny a claim if the dog bit someone before.
