Best Investment I have made for my Furry Kids!
I rescued a chihuahua(Rocky)in 2013. I bought coverage for him as soon as I could. He has had multiple small things happen in the past 2 years but developed "collapsing" episodes earlier this year. It has been an expensive work up between a neurologist (seizures?) vs cardiologist (syncope?). Rocky was rushed to the animal ER over Memorial Day weekend. He had stopped breathing and had a heart rate of 10 beats per minute. They were able to revive him and the work up showed he had severe pulmonary hypertension. Trupanion has been great! The Vets are happy to submit the claim. Trupanion keeps in touch with me by e-mail so I know they have received the claim. They have never questioned a claim and they do cover 90% (after deductible)of the actual charge, not what they think a reasonable charge should have been (like human insurance).
I can't imagine how we could have saved Rocky if we didn't have insurance. I never want to say I couldn't save my dog because I couldn't afford to.
I rescued a puppy in February and the first thing I did was get Trupanion for him. I hope I pay those premiums for years to come and never need the insurance but it is good to know that Trupanion has my furry kids (and my) back.
