Dont waste your money. Your better off putting it into savings and building an emergency fund
Waste of money. Claim after claim they deny coverage. one of our dogs was born with a recessed vulva (common in breed and many dogs) which most dogs will grow out of. She developed a UTI after a few months. Because the recessed vulva can lead to an UTI and noted at her birth it was a "pre-existing condition" (their perfect excuse not to pay) they not only refused to cover any related claims but stated any issue from her vagina through her urinary tract system would not be covered now or in the future. That's one example. They make excuses and rule out for anything moving forward based on "pre-existing condition" which they interpret to be anything related to the body part noted and anything attached to such. What's most frustrating is your premium is based upon the breed and likely common illness (risk for insurance claims) associated with those breeds. For our mastiffs it is a fairly healthy premium. Fair enough IF they then covered such illnesses that justify those premiums. These companies want it both ways. Justify the high premium then deny claims. Waste of money. Our yearly cost for both dogs was $2052. You'd be better off saving that money in an emergency account and in a year or two you'd have enough for most major incidents which was the reason we initially got it. And in disclosure we were huge proponents of pet insurance. Before her passing we carried insurance for our last mastiff for 8 plus years. in disclosure it was another provider and they denied a couple claims as well but overall felt they were fair. However our experience, premiums have doubled with the new dogs and claim approval basically nil. Save your money they are not honest nor will it provide you any assurance they are there for your pet. I know the $2000 will be in my account and accessible. Why pay them $160 + a month for weeks of submission and discussions to find they applied 10% to a deductible ($500) which will never be met with their games. Tis game should be illegal to be honest.

If only Trupanion would insure humans...
My dog has had quite a few issues in the past: she was attacked by a dog when she was young; she had to go through stomach surgerr to remove something she ate; and now, as an older dog, she is dealing with some digestive problem and needs constant monitoring via ultrasounds. Trupanion has been amazing from day 1. Not only do they cover everything they said they would., but it is always done in less than 24 hours and without any stress. I love Trupanion and only wish we would have human health insurance as good as this!

90% coverage saved me so much money
Absolutely a wallet saver. My 7yo female Persian mix has hyperthyroidism and required a few senior blood panels to get the correct dosage of medication. Each panel costing roughly $300/each time. Trupanion covered 90% of the cost. Thank you for making pet care easier.

Worth the peace of mind
Pet insurance seems like a good idea considering how much was paid for the pup as well as all of the possible ailments of the breed. Trupanion customer service was very nice and the sign up was easy.

Ridiculous
Cat had a fever and a viral infection. Vet also thought she Might have asthma.
All claims denied because she apparently had asthma and it’s pre existing. Fevers do not present in asthma alone.
Took them 6 weeks to deny my claims. I look forward to the appeal process
Pathetic company
