We appreciate getting $200 back from our $300 visit.

Alley had an infected looking lesion on her ear. The vet felt it needed a biopsy. We didn't hesitate because we knew we had the insurance. The claim Wass processed quickly and we were reimbursed for the procedure.

Why did you drop breeding coverage?

I do not understand why you dropped the breeding coverage. I know it can be costly, but it is also short-term as most females are only bred a few time. I had expenses related to breeding of my female, BUT YOU ALSO GAINED 8 NEW CUSTOMERS FROM MY BREEDINGS. And, now that my dog has had 2 litters & is 4 years old, she is done being bred. You will more than make up for the breeding expenses from my getting you 8 new dogs that are insured and just over the remainder of my females life. Now, if I choose to breed my 5 month old in the future, I will have to look for a new insurance company. I use to HIGHLY recommend Nationwide - I am not inclined to do so anymore.
