I might get a lot of flak for this but here it goes i believe that insurance companies should not only offer you the same rates as dogless households but a discount as well of course providing docemenation that the dog is well mannerd possibly even certifaces of training etc every neighborhood that i have lived in with my dog has felt safer and more secure just the mere presence of him is a huge deterant against criminals i use to install security alarms as a job and belive me they are not worth the money even a chiawawa (cant spell) is worth far more than any alarm let alone a rottie there should be some sort of federal gov aproved training for dogs espicaly big dogs that allow a discount on insurance as it provides a deterant and protection (providing the dog is properly trained) for not only your home but the community as a whole
