I feel it's necessary to adjust my original review (below for reference). While I will be forever grateful to Embrace for covering my dog as mentioned below during her Pancreatitis diagnosis, the customer service didn't last. A few months later my other dog was severely limping so I took him to the vet. He has a luxating patella which was a pre-existing condition so I knew that if this was the cause of the limping it wouldn't be covered. The vet thought his limping was caused by a torn ligament and not his patella. We did the necessary x-rays to be sure and she was right. So I submitted the claim to Embrace. They promptly denied the claim do to "hind limb lameness being a temporary pre-existing condition". I immediately called and explained the lameness (limping) wasn't due to his existing condition. It didn't matter. Because he limped prior to coverage he had to be limp free for 12 consecutive months. This is ridiculous there are MANY reasons a dog could be limping and to not cover a legitimate medical issue because the dog limped once upon a time is silly. I shopped around for new insurance and found a much better plan thru my employer and canceled the plan with Embrace immediately. Do yourself a favor and look at ALL options available before signing up with this company.
I've never had to use pet insurance before, but I'm so glad I had it. My dog was diagnosed with pancreatitis and spent a week in and out of the hospital. Embrace covered everything as promised, all claims were paid quickly, and the representatives had great communication along the way. I highly recommend this company!
