You have been by my side for the last 21 years!

You have always been there for me. There through Aidan Quinn's 3 battles with cancer, and a host of other injuries and mishaps during his 15 years. You helped me keep him happy and healthy. And now, you are there with me with Quinn who just turned 6. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Reliable insurance

After a horrible confrontation with a larger dog, being hospitalized and on 3 different meds for weeks, our little rescue dog, is coming around. All the invoices were sent to Nationwide and they quickly emailed that the claim had been received and they would notify us of any and all updates. There have not yet been any complications with paper work and every payment received has been clearly explained. It is a comfort to know that we are dealing with such a reputable company while we continue to bring our "little guy" back to his old self! Thank you

Claims take long

It seems claims are taking longer and longer to process. Even the acknowledgment of claim received now takes 48 hours or more, when before it was 24 hours.
