Common questions about Animal shelters
Answering the most frequently asked questions about Animal shelters.
Is veterinary care on site covered?Gravity Certs2026-08-17T23:42:07-04:00
Disclose it. On-site veterinary services may need malpractice rather than general liability.
Are staff bites a major cost?Gravity Certs2026-08-17T23:42:07-04:00
Yes. Bites, scratches and zoonotic exposure drive workers’ compensation in this class.
Do we need professional liability?Gravity Certs2026-08-17T23:42:06-04:00
If you assess temperament or make adoption decisions, yes. Those are professional judgments.
Are volunteers covered?Gravity Certs2026-08-17T23:42:05-04:00
General liability usually covers claims against them. Volunteer injuries often fall outside workers’ compensation.
Are we liable for a dog that bites after adoption?Gravity Certs2026-08-17T23:42:04-04:00
Potentially. Failure to disclose known behavior is the usual allegation, and documented disclosure is the defense.

I have been using Semper insured Landland for some years now. Stu has been very helpful and responses fast to any questions you need answers too. Sara has contacted me when he was busy. He has gotten the best health insurance each year … More for my needs. It’s hard living on only my widows disability and he has helped get my health care insurance as my needs change and within my budget. -
We are so thrilled to be working with Adam. From the get-go, he took the time to understand our business's needs and worked closely (and tenaciously) to assemble an insurance package that met our unique needs. He's shown himself … More to be diligent, contentious, and a true advocate -- in many ways it feels like Adam's become an extension of my team. In the months we've been working together I've really come to trust Adam, and feel his partnership as an agent reflects a knowledge of our business and its mission and a genuine energy to strengthen and protect our operation.
