More than one third of all homeowner's insurance liability claims paid out in 2013 were related to
dog bites. The average claim was about $30,000, adding up to about $490 million for the year. Insurance companies are concerned about these costs, so it has become common for them to blacklist certain breeds of dog. While each company has a different list, the following fourteen breeds were the most common to be excluded from coverage:
- Pit Bull Terriers
- Staffordshire Terriers
- Rottweilers
- German Shepherds
- Presa Canarios
- Chows Chows
- Doberman Pinschers
- Akitas
- Wolf-Hydribs
- Mastiffs
- Can Corsos
- Great Danes
- Alaskan Malamutes
- Siberian Huskies
