is exceptionally difficult. their survival rate is 40% to 50%, so most do not make it. that's the time when they are learning to protect themselves and hunt on their own. larry: keeping the animal theme, today is national dog day, so today we are looking out for man's best friend. a new study is out on risk of what is becoming a growing worry among dog owners. that is canine dementia. i did not even know that was a thing. christine sloane has a look at the risks and the hopes for prevention. christine: like humans, dogs slow down and can experience mood changes as they age, but how do you know if that change is old age or cognitive dysfunction, also known as dougie dementia, that mirrors alzheimer's disease? a new study of 15,000 dogs enrolled in the dog aging project identifies risk factors and symptoms.
4:25 pm
>> could be difficulty with the dog being able to find their food. or perhaps the dog running into objects or potentially not recognizing their owners. >> other symptoms could include pacing and trans-like stairs. ask for risk factors, exercise make play a role. >> we found that dogs whose owners reported that they had lower level activity did show signs classified as on the scale of dougie dementia. christine: the odds of dougie dementia diagnosis work 6.5 times higher in dogs reported as non-active, though researchers stressed the study just look at correlations and did not find a positive link between the two. the study also found dougie dementia appears to increase with age and doggies -- dogs with impaired hearing as well as those with neurological disorders, are also at risk. >> i would think the best thing
4:26 pm
is to be aware of signs of cognitive dysfunction and communicate that to a veterinarian. christine: the study also discovered dogs experience disease like humans do. learning how dogs age can help us learn more about how humans age. kristen: getting insurance is itself hazardous to homeowners living in fire zones. >> trying to find alternate insurance, i went to three or four different carriers and got turned down. >> the loophole that still makes it difficult despite new regulations. plus -- >> this mission being successful is a sign to the world and the american people that we have been doing our best.

4:30 pm
bay area have been dropped by insurance providers and they are finding the state's alternative plan is not as comprehensive as they had initially hoped. larry: stephanie joins us live in studio. stephanie: we have heard from many of our viewers dropped by their insurance provider, left with no other viable option, but the state's california fair plan , a new regulation aiming to help, may overlook those most at risk. after their beloved ranch survived the glass fire that ripped through napa county, mark and alma are facing yet another hazard that has left dire scarred property with a different burn. >> there's no question -- there was no questions. they just came back and said you are done. >> their longtime insurance provider dropped them as the company announced in january
4:31 pm
they are pulling out of the state for certain categories of homes in the regulated insurance market. >> we were left to scramble and trying to find alternate insurance. i went to probably three or four different carriers and got turned down. stephanie: weeks go by. they tried farmers, state farm, aaa, with no luck. >> they go what's your address? and then you hear the pause, and they go oh, well, we are not insuring in that area. stephanie: since the fire tore through their neighborhood, they have made investments to reduce wildfire risk, something known as hardening your home, adding things like spring was on the roof, and cleared out five feet of their structure. >> trimmed all the trees off the house. >> same story with their neighbor. >> my husband was cutting down trees for about six weeks straight. exhausting work. spent another hundred dollars
4:32 pm
hiring someone to do the trees we could not do. had cal fire come out and do inspection, had our local fire company come out and do an inspection. stephanie: she said she contacted 25 different insurance policy providers, but -- >> none of them work insuring properties in our area. >> in february, california's insurance commissioner propose a regulation that aims to prevent this. exit mandates 100% of all insurance companies have to give california consumers discounts for hardening their home. it's the only way we will be able to bring down the risk so that californians can keep their insurance. stephanie: if approved, it would go into effect by the end of the year, bringing benefits aside from mandating discounts, like requiring that insurance companies provide consumers that are property's risk score and creating a right to appeal that score, but critics say the reality is not as pretty as the
4:33 pm
press release. >> it is a big loophole. >> the huge loophole in this rule that could really swallow its promises. stephanie: the executive director of consumer watchdog says while the regulation sounds good on paper, it does not tell the whole story. >> there are two parts of the insurance transaction. one, insurance companies decide if they are going to sell you coverage. second, they decide what price they are going to charge you. this regulation addresses price, which is super important to all of us, but it does not address the sales question, if you are going to get a policy at all. stephanie: in other words, insurance companies are not required to consider mitigation steps when deciding if they will sell a consumer property, so residents living in areas of high fire risk may not be able to get insured.
4:34 pm
just like these families. >> i don't know of anybody who has been able to get insurance. stephanie: they say they are only left with one real option. >> looks like we will have to go through the california fair plan. >> the california fair plan is the state insurer of last resort , providing coverage to california homeowners unable to find insurance in the traditional marketplace. >> this is extremely confusing. >> and it is not cheap. >> our coverages about three and a half times more than what we had before and also with a $20,000 deductible. stephanie: without the duct -- without the deductible, she says the california fair plan would have been 20 times more expensive than her current policy. >> it needs to be available for every single california that needs it. stephanie: the problem is it is not affordable now and not comprehensive. what are you doing to change
4:35 pm
that? >> what we need to do is provide a comprehensive policy option that currently does not exist in the fair plan, so people are not having to pay the administrative fees thato the cost. >> eliminating administrative fees is one step, but consumer advocates argue unless the regulation is amended, the loophole leaves the most vulnerable communities paying the price. >> it is happening and it is unfortunate. stephanie: consumer watchdog along with several other consumer organizations sent several letters calling on the commissioner to use his authority to close what they consider this nonrenewal loophole. the department of insurance rejects the claims, adding the regulation will still require insurance companies to both recognize and reward consumers' mitigation efforts by offering those discounts. however, that's assuming you got a policy to begin with. larry: right. it does not sound like this is a fair plan, even though it is called the fair plan.
4:36 pm
when will this proposed regulation go into effect, and does he have the authority to change it? stephanie: the commissioner says it should be in effect by the end of the year. as far as his authority, the department of insurance says the commissioner can take actions within the scope of the regulation and will be considering all public input. in the meantime, they are urging people stuck with nonrenewal's to contact the department to defend their case. of course, we are tracking what happens. larry: thank you. frustrating situation for many homeowners. homeowners. kristen: coming up, a tesla what's the difference between prop 26 and prop 27? 26? not one dime to get people off the streets and into housing 27 generates hundreds of million to help solve homelessness. the choice is clear yes on prop 27.
4:37 pm
4:38 pm
hi, i'm eileen. i live in vancouver, washington and i write mystery novels. dogs have been such an important part of my life. i have flinn and a new puppy. as i was writing, i found that i just wasn't as sharp and i new i needed to do something so i started taking prevagen. i realized that i was much more clear and i was remembering the details that i was supposed to.
4:39 pm
prevagen keeps my brain working right. prevagen. healthier brain. better life. what's the difference between prop 26 and prop 27? 26 is a money grab that doesn't guarantee a cent for non-gaming tribes. 27 requires 15% of all state revenues go to non-gaming tribes. the choice is clear. yes, on 27. kristin: time now for the 4 at 4:00. you guys are going to love this one. are you tired of losing your car keys? there's a growing trend among some tesla owners, this one a little extreme, though. a handful of owners are
4:40 pm
implanting their key fob chips into their arms. >> yeah! >> the ones doing it or into body modification. they say it works, though. one man is even trying out a new multipurpose chip, so i guess you cannot lose it if it is in you. who would do this? i mean -- >> can i just say, this is kind of dumb because with teslas, you can open your car with your phone. the phone might be -- might as well be implanted in most of our arms anyway. if you have a phone, you can get into your car and you do not need anything implanted, but maybe for other vehicles, this would be wise. >> i think this is a good thing because if those tesla owners get lost, we won't have to put phones up on telephone poles because they will be chipped just like our dogs.
4:41 pm
we will be able to track them down. >> my dad growing up always misplaced his keys. he's super smart, really knows what he is doing, but he's always been forgetful. he just recently misplaced his keys. somebody like that might benefit. i wouldn't do it. >> would he do it? >> i don't know. maybe. >> we may have a candidate. remember the massive mega millions winning jackpot last month that none of us won? well, the winner still has not come forward. the ticket was bought at a gas station in illinois. it was worth $1.43 billion. the winter has a year from the date of the drawing to claim their prize. i can just envision some people in illinois, that they are just tearing their house apart, every room. "where did he put that ticket?
4:42 pm
i can just imagine what that conversation would be like. >> i did a report one time where the state of california managed to track down the actual owner of the ticket by using surveillance video at the moment the ticket was bought, and they could identify who it was. i wonder if they are doing that back there. >> that's next level. >> i'm just thinking maybe they did not realize they had one. actually, do you write down the numbers or take photos? >> as soon as i saw that it was bought in illinois, i checked the tickets. i was like, well, ok. >> a lot of people don't keep track of their tickets or numbers, so they just don't know. >> that would be so bad to be a billionaire but not know you are a billionaire. >> and english beauty pageant finalist is making a name for herself by going makeup-e. melissa ralph is the first ever to compete in the ms. england competition without wearing any
