What is the name of your state?Florida
I do not live in Miami-Dade County. I own two Pit-Bull terriers. I know most people wouldn't believe me, but they've never bit anyone and wouldn't hurt a fly (he might hurt a rabbit or a squirrel. . .) I know that neither my insurance company (nor most any) would sell me homeowners insurance if I disclosed the actual breed of my dog. Or, it would be cost-prohibitive for this HUD homeowner. I am an educated and professional exotic animal trainer. I have knowledge of dog behavior and years of animal care and training experience. My vetrenarian listed both dogs as a cross-breed (not staffordshire, not bulldog, another breed) She did this because she knows my boss, and she knows my dogs, how my dogs are kept, how well they behave, what they do when they don't behave, etc. My point is she took a personal liability in listing these dogs as another breed for me. So...
Barring a dog related injury/attack, whatever. If the insurance company were to somehow see my dogs and know their breed, or ask my neighbors, etc. etc. would the vet's word that they are not pitbulls stand up in court?
Thank you Kindly.
