Dog Liability Insurance in Broward County | Barefoot Insurance Brokers
Owning a dog in Broward County is a vibe. Morning walks, neighborhood hangs, weekend adventures. But starting July 1, 2025, Florida’s Pam Rock Act adds a serious responsibility to dog ownership, and skipping it could cost you way more than a vet bill.
If a dog causes serious injury and gets classified as “dangerous,” owners may now be legally required to carry $100,000 in dog liability insurance. Translation: adulting just got real.
Why This Matters in Broward
Between delivery drivers, packed sidewalks, and backyard get-togethers, accidents can happen fast. And here’s the kicker:
Most renters and homeowners insurance policies exclude dog bites or certain breeds entirely.
Dog liability insurance helps cover:
• Medical bills
• Legal fees
• Lawsuits and settlements
• Coverage gaps your main policy won’t touch
Perfect for:
• First-time renters in Fort Lauderdale
• Young homeowners in Pembroke Pines
• Acreage living in Southwest or Sunshine Ranches
Dog insurance isn’t about being a “bad owner.” It’s about protecting your future.
