It was great to be able to focus on my dog and not the vet bill when we didn’t know what was wrong with him.

Recently our dog suddenly lost about 6 pounds. While the vet struggled to determine why, it was nice to focus on the dog and not worry as much about the vet bill. After several dewormings, he quickly put the weight back on!

Thank heaven for insurance!

Shortly after we got Sadie, a Black Mouth Cur, and saw what an avid hunter she was (squirrel, deer - anything that moved) and how she would fly through the woods with total abandon, I thought it would be wise to get insurance for the inevitable accident she was sure to have. All was well for a few years, at which time my husband thought we should stop the insurance but I insisted we keep it. Thank heaven! Not too long after, Sadie completely tore her cranial cruciate ligament, leaving her very lame and requiring surgery. With the final bills well over $4,000, this would have been a very difficult amount to manage. We were quite pleased with the amount the insurance covered, and relative ease of submitting claims. Our veterinarians have always submitted the claims for us, something I highly recommend, so that all details and codes are correct, thus eliminating either a denied claim or the need to resubmit. Thank you for helping us and our Sadie!
