Many homeowners insurances ban owners to have large dogs including Rottweilers, German shepherds, pit bulls etc. because of their "likeliness" to bite. What most don't understand is it's not usually the dogs fault; rather, it's how they are raised by the owners.
Why is this important?
Many people can not own the dog of their choice because of insurance. This should not stop citizens from having the right to own the dog of their choice. I personally work with shelters that are full of these large breed dogs that are not being adopted because of a combination of the public's misconception of these animals and popular insurance policies not allowing ownership of these dogs.
