Everyone should have pet insurance

AFTER HAVING MY FIRST RHODESIAN AND HAVING A LATE LIFE INCIDENT I TOOK INSURANCE ON MY NEXT RHODESIAN BENIN AS A JUST IN CASE NEED THE DAY WE PICKED HIM UP AS A PUPPY. WHAT HAPPENED TO BENIN IS NOT COMMON ACCORDING TO THE SPECIALIST CARE HE WAS UNDER. THE INSURANCE WHEN I CALLED AT THE START COULD NOT ACTUALLY DEFINE WHAT AREA THIS WOULD FALL UNDER FOR COVERAGE. i WOULD NEVER EXPECT FULL COVERAGE BUT WAS GRATEFUL FOR WHAT NATIONWIDE HELPED MY FAMILY WITH ON COVERAGE AND REIMBURSEMENT FOR BENIN. THE ISSUE THAT I AM CONFUSED ON IS WHY THE MANDATORY BACTERIA SHOTS WOULD BE 100% COVERED ONE WEEK BUT NOT THE NEXT? IT IS THE SAME SHOT MANDATORY TO CURE HIM AND NOTHING CHANGED ON WHY HE HAD TO HAVE THEM. INSURANCE IS CONFUSING HUMAN OR PET. THANK YOU FOR WHAT YOU HAVE GIVEN BACK AS IT WAS APPRECIATED AND TODAY I RECEIVED MY FIRST CALL FROM THE SPECIALIST THEY MAY HAVE STOPPED THE BACTERIA FINALLY AFTER SEEING THE CULTURE. ONLY TIME WILL TELL!

Thanks so much for helping Chickadee!

Chickadee hurt her leg, and it was after our vet's hours, so we had to go to the emergency vet. They took x-rays and determined it was a soft-tissue injury. It was really comforting to know we could go ahead and get the x-rays and exam, because we had such good insurance for her. She's all better now! And I'm very glad we had Nationwide for her!
