Definitely worth it

I’m so glad I have the insurance, my dog has really bad allergies and the pills with injections are very costly. My dog had an accident at the park tripped on a hole and messed up her leg pretty bad. Nation wide paid 90% of the surgery. When it rains it pours, months later my dog was limping on the same leg. The screw that they put in there was being rejected by my dogs body. Again another costly surgery. I’m so glad I was able to say do whatever it takes we have insurance for her. She is doing well so far.

Sudden onset of deafness

Zini had a sudden onset of deafness in March. She was seen by a couple of specialists and had a CAT scan, plus: deep ear cleaning which revealed a hole in her ear drum.... All this was expensive but was covered by my policy. Good Job. Great Insurance

It takes to long to receive money

My only complaint is that it takes way to long to receive money back. When visiting the vets you have to pay in full and at times i don’t have the $500 plus extra on hand. It would be nice if it was more like human insurance where we only have to pay what we really owe.
