Why is there no animal/pet insurance?
Question by Doing the Right Thing: Why is there no animal/pet insurance?
Sending a pet to a veterinarian can cost lots of money and there is no insurance for pets. My dog had surgery done and it cost about $ 2000!! Plus he needed some meds too.. another $ 100/month.
Dog are man’s best friend and yet we can’t get our pets some insurance.
I guess its not advertise as much, so I never knew it existed.

There is pet insurance available, it’s even offered by my husband’s employer insurance company.
Yes, there’s pet insurance. Just don’t remeber with which company, but you can check the internet, they had their ads in Reader’s Digest….

i know some of my friends got they dog insurance threw there home insurance, an it pays, an some of them found insurance in the yellow pages for there dogs
There is pet insurance if you want to pay for it. It is more expensive to buy insurance than pay for the few problems, if any, that might arise. Search online for pet insurance because they are out there.
there is such a thing as pet insurance but you have to read the fine print because some can be a huge waste of $ . Pay close attention to what is considered a pre-existing condition and what is covered in that arena. I had a bad experience with one pet insurance company that pretty much said that anything my pet had even been tested for would be excluded for life. My dog was a puppy and had been tested for quite a bit when I first brought him home…I would make sure that you look into this before purchasing any pet insurance policy. Also check the cancellation policy and see if the insurance will cancel when your pet reaches a certain age. The price range for coverage for a dog can be anywhere from $ 15-50 per month depending on how much coverage and what type of plan you purchase. Check out http://www.petinsurance.com. I have heard a lot about them but have not used them myself – I too am shopping for a policy.
actually the association that I am a member of and write for offer pet insurance in their consumer’s edge package. Check out The Alliance for Affordable Services. That is one of many services they offer.
There darn sure is! Most vets have advertising flyers for it right there on the counter!
