They're Excellent!

My Vizsla, Trooper, is an adorable, energetic boy that has been a part of our family since he was 7 weeks old. He loves snuggling with all of us, going for walks… And eating socks. He’s done this four times. I’ll spare you the gruesome details, but the first three were not an issue. The fourth one was the magic bullet. It was lodged in his gut and surgery was required to remove it. My mom used to laugh at me for having health insurance for my dog. She doesn’t anymore, after she saw just how wonderful the folks at Healthy Paws were in our time of need. The app is easy to use, very helpful and I even filed my claim with it! Their follow-up is amazing, very friendly and I was receiving my settlement within about 10 days or so. I can’t speak highly enough of Healthy Paws. I’ve heard too may horror stories exactly like this one from family and friends, so Trooper has been covered with Healthy paws insurance since he was a puppy and they’ve always been wonderful to us. I’m happy to say his surgery went well, he’s healed up fine… And we have a strict protocol on sock storage now.

Loving Healthly Paws for 7 Years and Counting

I've had Healthy Paws for my dog's 7 entire years of life (and counting) and it was a wonderful decision. The claims process couldn't be easier. They are always fair and fast. They sometimes even send personal notes to check in on my pup. They are very affordable, with lower than expected increases in monthly premiums as my dog has aged. I don't remember if they were the cheapest. I'm sure you can always find a cheaper plan... but at what real price? I know when my dog's curiosity gets the best of him that Healthy Paws has my back.

Labels whatever they can as pre existing

Had them for 4 month to cover our 6 month old Australian cattle dog Jack, on our last routine Trip to the vet we are told his testicles are most likely in his abdomen and he will need surgery. Prior to that visit, 3 month ago the vet had noted that they were undescended but that it would be too early to tell if it was an issue. We'll healthy paws holds on to anything to deny a claim. Apparently since it was nopyed it's now on the exclusion list and nothing will be covered, including all the complications Jack has had due to the surgery. Be aware they will take a note from the vet and deny anything they can.

wish my human insurance were so good

healthypaws saved the day. having to make a choice between your pet's health and your pocket book would be a devastating decision. healthy paws covered everything that could possible be covered (they do not cover the exam, and of course there is a deductible) with no arguments nor shady fine print escapism when my pup came down with multiple pneumonia and required extensive care. their customer service is top notch (they pick right up when you call (no phone tree to pick and choose through), and checked in on my boy after all the problems to see how he was doing). the price is within range of other insurance carriers. and they donate to charity. i am so grateful to be able to be there for my pup and worry less about finances.
