The downside is it makes dog ownership even more expensive. I don't want to deny a poor kid the joy of having a dog.

An issue with this is that you would essentially force euthanization of a lot dogs. A lot of low income people aren't going to be able to afford insurance. When someone has a liter of dogs, finding them all homes would be more difficult. Generally, it's going to put up an extra barrier to finding homes for unwanted dogs.
