Preexisting Conditions

The thought that I may not be able to get your insurance because my dog has a preexisting condition - she will have other issues, and my experience with her recent bout with GI issues has prompted me to realize I need more than wellness, which I already have

Annoying

I signed up through my employer. Then they wanted medical records for my 4 year old dog. I said that was too difficult for pet insurance. Then they responded and said don’t worry about the medical records but I had already purchased elsewhere. Oh and you’re still emailing me.
