Police Loses Insurance Because Of Dog



Man's best friend could get you kicked off your insurance plan. American Family Insurance canceled the homeowner's policy of a Nebraska sheriff's deputy, because of his police dog. Douglas County Deputy Andy Woodward says he learned months ago that American Family was considering ending his policy because his K-9 dog, Diezel, lives with him in his Omaha home. Woodward says he told his agent that the county carries liability coverage for the dog and thought the matter was settled. But earlier this month, American Family sent him a letter informing him his policy would end Dec. 19. A member of the National Fraternal Order of Police says American Family should be prepared to be shunned by its 325,000 members.
