Embrace is #1!

I was very skeptical when I first signed up with Embrace for our new Aussie puppy and our older Aussie. After 3 claims on the puppy and one on the older dog, I am impressed. Everything was just as stated in the policy. My vet's charges were in line with the schedule of benefits and 80% of what I paid was promptly refunded to me. Thank you Embrace for a great product.

It pays to do your homework.

My love is for large breed dogs and their vet bills can add up very quickly. We lost our last rottie to cancer several years ago. I called him our platinum plated baby because we paid for all his expenses out of pocket. I don't regret a dime, but after several years of chemo treatments, I knew the next puppy we got would have health insurance. I did ALOT of homework into pet insurance before I settled on Embrace. Could not be happier 4 years later. Great company with great pet people. The 1st year our bullmastiff was perfectly healthly, then the 1st knee went, so here was the 1st TPLO, the next year the 2nd knee went with the same repair. Both are very costly repairs. Embrace does not predetermine what each breed of dogs are predisposed to and tell you they will not treat for that while others do. Why have the insurance if they are going to do that? While the TPLO's have been the major expenses, Embrace is easy to deal with on any level of treatment depending on what policy you choose. Again, this is a great company.

Very happy with Embrace experience

Started with Embrace after a rather horrible 12 months period with my three dogs. It has functioned as I had hoped. Mostly I have paid the premiums and not put in claims. But...when I have had to put in claims I have been very pleased with my experience. Sometimes it seems like I've had to do lots of paperwork but this was just because on the initial claims for a dog, you are asked for more. I am very appreciative that Embrace covers hereditary conditions. I have cavalier king charles spaniels which are prone to mitral valve disease and had few choice in companies who would voer this.

another easy claim experience

My dog had 2 lumps on his chest that had grown very rapidly over the last 2 months. We had both removed and checked by a pathologist. The total bill was close to $1100, which included a dental cleaning (not included in his plan) we decided to do while he was under anesthesia. In less than 2 weeks, Embrace reimbursed use for their percentage of everything covered under his plan.

Wellness Plan works for me!

I insured my mixed breed dog 4 months ago, and when his birthday rolled around I took him in for his annual healthy dog exam. Because I had insurance I felt free to let our [trusted] vet perform whatever tests he felted he needed to in order to insure that Abijah was healthy. Our bill came to $261, and although my allowable reinbursement was only $200, it certainly took the "ouch" out of the bill. My Customer Service rep was ontop of my claim, and my reinbursement hit in 8 days. I consider the Wellness Policy sort of a savings plan for my dog (as my payment just about covers the $200 allowed). This works for me. :)
