Home and renter insurers can't use dog breed

Insurers cannot deny, cancel, refuse to renew, or raise rates for any reason tied to your dog's breed. This applies to homeowner, renter, manufactured or mobile home, multi‑family building, and umbrella policies. Insurers may not ask about a dog's specific breed. They may act or raise the premium only if the dog is known or has been declared dangerous or vicious under state law. In that case, they may ask only whether the dog is known or declared dangerous or vicious.

Supportive housing must allow one pet

Supportive housing funded by state grants must let each tenant keep at least one pet. Providers must agree in writing to this as a grant condition and follow state landlord‑tenant law. Pet rules must follow public health, animal control, and animal‑cruelty laws.
