Nationwide is not on your side when your dog gets sick.

I have been paying into this pet insurance company for 12 years. I have not had any major claims because my 2 dogs have been pretty healthy. But, this summer my dog was diagnosed with a brain tumor that could only be treated with radiation treatments. It was now that I needed help with my insurance company. That didn't happen. They say 90%. That is not true. They ended up paying less than $3000 for a bill that exceeded $14,000. I know there are much better insurance companies out there for your pet. I saw other companies like Trupanion and Healthy Paws paying almost 100%.for radiation treatments. I felt like I got ripped off all these years. At 12 years old there are no other companies that would take your pet. So Im stuck. Please seek out other options before its too late.
