A-1 Service from Trupanion
I would recommend Trupanion to anyone who asked me. My German Shepherd, Riley, has had several serious health issues in her life. She is only 18 months old but her vet bills have totaled in excess of $12,000.00. She had her first health issue when she was approximately 8 months old which was prior to us purchasing her pet insurance thru Trupanion. The total bill on this was in excess of $4,000.00 which came out of my pocket. We purchased health insurance for her just prior to her turning one year old. Since then, she has had two rather serious illnesses which totaled in excess of $9,000.00. I don't know how we would have been able to afford her care if it were not for Trupanion. They have truly been a life-saver.

Quick Claim Processing! No Complaints!
I've had Trupanion insurance on my two German Shorthaired Pointers since October, 2010. Before that we had PetFirst Insurance. I switched to Trupanion after I found out that with PetFirst illnesses/injuries filed in one policy year became pre-existing conditions (and thus were not covered) in subsequent policy years. I thought this was crazy! If my dog developed a chronic condition, under PetFirst Insurance, I would only get paid for claims filed in the first year of his illness. Therefore, I did a lot of research and switched to a Trupanion policy with no deductible. In July, 2011, Max developed a skin infection. We went to our regular vet several times and most recently to the dermatologist. All our claims were processed within 2 weeks (several within 1 week). Our most recent claim was for over $400 and Trupanion approved it without issue. When looking into insurance companies, do your homework. Trupanion does not cover routine care and vet office visit fees. However, these are small costs I can easily fit into my budget. Trupanion does cover diagnostics, medicines, surgeries, etc. These are the expensive things you buy insurance for. Therefore, I would recommend Trupanion for 3 main reasons. First, their policy is the best out there in terms of coverage. You get unlimited event/lifetime limits and coverage for most conditions. Additionally, you get coverage for chronic conditions (as long as the condition starts after you have the insurance). Second, the

Ulysses says thanks!
We have a one-year-old boxer/pit bull mix named Ulysses, who managed to get in a car accident and swallow part of a shoe in the same week! Our ASPCA insurance covered a portion of the claim, and they were very helpful and responsive. We saved many times over the premium last year. I only wish we'd signed up for a higher cap for coverage -- but that's our fault, not ASPCA! Highly recommended.

aspca pet ins
aspca pet ins has been great. they pay their claims promptly and they cover a full 80% of the vet bill. previously i had another pet insurance company that was always shortchanging me with scheduled reimbursements. many times i would get 50% or less coverage for vet bills in addition to their deductible. i have recommended aspca pet ins to many of my friends who are dog owners.

Trupanion Delivers What they Promose!
My lab, now at 7 started terrible itching and I could see he was destroying his skin. We took him to the vet, as I couldn't stand watching him so uncomfortable. The vet feels he has developed allergies, and suggested an allergy test. Didn't think twice about saying ' do whatever you need to do'. It was a $690 bill for testing and meds. We are still waiting for the results but within 2 days, I received an email, and 4 days later, received my check. I know Whatever it is, I don't have to worry about cost!

I'm a happy Customer
So far I have been with embrace for a couple of years and the customer service has been prompt as well as courteous. Both of my claims have been covered and without hassle. This is the only time I've ever had pet insurance and it's been a favorable experience. Thank you! I wish health insurance for humans was this easy. :-)
