Saved our pups life!
We adopted our first puppy and decided to get pet insurance shortly after. About a month after bringing home our rescue, our very playful chihuahua/terrier mix had a seizure. It totally scared us, so we took her to the vet and they immediately suggested taking her to the pet hospital. Her seizures got worse that day and the hospital had to give her shots and do bloodwork. They kept her two nights (around 1200/night) to keep her stabilized and for observation. The bloodwork showed she had a liver shunt and needed this operation asap (6k for the surgery). This being our first puppy ever, we had no idea what to do or how we were going to pay for this! Thankfully, the pet insurance became active a week or so before our pup had a seizure. We filed our first claim to help cover her hospital visit and was so surprised at how helpful and sweet the folks were who helped us file a claim. They really cared about our little pup and to this date have covered the majority of $10,125+ of our puppy’s medical bills in just the last month and a half!!! We are very grateful to have chosen healthy paws as our insurance and could not have saved our pups life without it!!
