Nationwide Pet Insurance was a good idea

Our little dogs (chihuahua - rat terrier mix) are family members. The smaller one (9 lb.) developed a heart murmur, requiring an ultrasound. Insurance covered nearly all of it She was put on a medication to manage pulmonary hypertension from a valve insufficiency. Then 2 weeks ago, both dogs were bitten by venomous snake (rattlesnake, we think), requiring antivenin. Insurance covered nearly all of it. Then, the one with the heart trouble developed an autoimmune disorder where her white blood cells were attacking the red blood cells; could be related to snake bit; was nursed back to health requiring steroids and days on IV. Again, insurance covered almost all of it. All of the medical issues caused us much anxiety, but at least we didn't have a financial issue on top of it! Both pooches are much better now. Thanks, Nationwide.
