Thank you for supporting my efforts to get and keep sweet Hope healthy!

Our darling rescue dog is healthy in many ways. She seems to have frequent skin allergies and ear aches in the same ear. The vet and I have been aggressive in treating her with diet, meds, shampoos and exposure to potential allergens. We have submitted legitimate claims for meds and treatments and are quite relieved to know my benefits with you cover the majority of the costs. I wish you had an ongoing purchase discount program for the necessary tick/flea and worm medicines. We are covered a tiny bit under the preventive plan, but goodness those pills are pricey!

Great policy

Yes I have a female pug also, they had 2 liters and I did refer all my new pug owners, some of them did buy the policy. My boss is also going to be buying a policy for his dog.

Fantastic

Having this insurance for Murray Allowed us to make the best decision for Murray at a very difficult time. It took the worry about cost of a very expensive and potentially life saving surgery out of the picture . As a result we could choose the surgery and save our young dog as initially we were told without the surgery he could not do well. Fortunately once in surgery things were not as concerning as originally thought but the insurance allowed us to take the risk.

follow up

Going by the date, I am thinking this claim was for the stool test. Even though Roxy gets monthly Sentinel she managed to get hookworms and this was the follow up to be sure the treatment worked and she was worm free and I am happy to report that she no longer has hookworms.

Monthly Cost

Policies start at approximately $12 per month.
