[NAGDU] home owner's insurance and dangerous dog?

[NAGDU President]

Vivianna,

	Pleas excuse my delay in chiming in to this discussion. I think this is an important question to have answered and I am going to do some inquiries to get a definitive answer. IT may take some time and legal research; so please don't be afraid to remind me in a week or so if I don't get back to you before then. I have a meeting with President Riccobono tomorrow and this is on my list of topics to chat about.

Peace!
Marion

OK, now i am totally confused.  
This brings me back to asking my original question.  Can the home owners insurance charge me extra for having a so-called dangerous dog or not?
Some say yes, some say no.  But, what is correct under the ADA?  Does anybody know for certain?

I wonder how accurate this really is as, I very rarely come across any GSD’s as pets.  And, how many folks really want to pay extra on their insurance just because they have a certain breed of dog.
