If You Own A Dog - Get Healthly Paws
We just filed out first claim with Healthy Paws and could not be more thrilled to have our pet insurance with them. My dog Wally began to vomit for an unknown reason one evening. After vomiting twice overnight and being inappetent the following day, we took him to our emergency clinic. GI scope, radiographs, thorough lab work, and an abdominal ultrasound later did not reveal the cause of his severe gastritis. He required two nights of hospitalization before he turned the corner. I can't explain how comforting it was to tell the ER and Internal Medicine specialists to "move forward" to save our dog knowing that 90% of our bill would be reimbursed. He has needed additional lab work to make sure his CBC abnormalities resolved and that will be covered as well. In ONE mystery illness, we have been reimbursed more than we would pay for one year of insurance for our three dogs. We actually got the insurance shortly after adopting a young lab/pit mix because I used to work in veterinary medicine and saw SO many cases of GI obstruction in young dogs with very sad endings. I never really imagined needing it for Wally, but it goes to show, anything can happen.
If you own a dog, I highly recommend pet insurance, and Healthy Paws (in my opinion) is one of the best!
