Yes. Pets in the UK can be insured against theft/straying. As they are considered personal property in the States, I'd assume it would be available stateside too.

We tried to add them and my insurance guy laughed. I told him I don't care if someone steals the damn television. I can buy a new one! The dogs are irreplaceable.
Thinking about it, I would imagine it's included in case she bites someone, hence the surcharge for certain breeds-they would charge more for breeds more prone to attacking people. Just my guess. |
