lol so old man drifter cant get it
Seriously dude?!? When did he do that?!? (j/k)
You should have heard this guy casualing talking about shooting his dogs. I would have loved to seen the look on my face.
Once Obama takes his guns he won’t be able to shoot his dogs, so it is a good thing they will be insured. lol.
Just a heads up, they have breed specific exclusions.
Under Maltese:
“Shaker Syndrome”

Sounds a lot like a seizure. So if you’re buying this because you think he may have seizure complications down the road I can see them saying, “too bad, it’s excluded”.
I knew it! Bastard!
Yeah different people have different attitudes towards dogs. Sounds like he treats his dogs like dogs and we treat ours like people. The sad part is his were probably more happy and balanced than mine. While they were alive. :roflpicard:
Yeah I read that. :tif:
The app & signup is pretty simple. They asked me why the cats had been treated with an antibiotic recently since I noted it in the app process (all via email BTW), i stated house fire, minor smoke exposure, that was it. IDK if they actually check the records or not honestly.
As far as cost - like I said we spent almost 2gs on two cats for antibiotics; Xrays; emergency visit & kenneling. If something were to happen again, or something accident or injury or something, the insurance would save you a BIG chunk of change.
If you pay $150 / yr per animal, and the animal lives 10 yrs and you use it once (hewaven forbid) it pays for itself. As with any ins.
Ah man, beagles aren’t covered for narcolepsy. What if i just call it laziness?
Maybe pet life insurance would give you a better ROI?
The in laws have spent a ton of cash on their Bichon through its 18 year life.
The thing can barely walk, and wears a diaper.
I can’t wait till my dog’s hips start to go I’m sure the wife will spend all sorts of money that I have not earned yet. Maybe I’ll wait a few years before getting the mutt some.
I was told but cannot guarantee accuracy, that as with all insurances it is cheaper when the animal is younger. $0.02
in the fall we spent 3,9xx on a 8 day stay in orchard park vet hospital for are 7 month old yorkie. the bills add up fast!!! ive been debating VPI or another carrier for my dogs ever since
Small world. My inlaws have spent thousands on their Bichon’s too. One of them almost died and had to have a couple of blood transfusions. $X,XXX.
quick quote for my 8 week old lab, cheapest plan $15.50, most expensive $49.75. Changed his age to 5 years old and it went cheapest $18.67 and $56.92 for most expensive. So it definitely went up a few bucks.
do it up, my cat and my dog where on it … a few times it saved me from a big bill… check out petsmart in orchard park they have a vet called bandfield it is the best pet health inc i have used
How good is the Rx coverage?
Think I can get my dog diag. with Asthma?
lol jackass.
$17.25 for the Maltese for pretty decent coverage. “Common, Expensive, and Emergency” problems. Seizures, tooth extractions, hit by a car, etc. $200 for a year, if we save one $1k bill in the next 5 years we break even. The odds of that are probably pretty good. If my coverage can begin immediately I’ll probably do it now.
$17.98 for the other dog. Mixed breed, maybe a year older than the Maltese? I would have thought the mix would be way cheaper since they’re healthier. Must be primarily based on age.
Its a dog, you cant ask how old it is if there is no paperwork… snky snky
16.67 for an almost 2+ y/o lab for the same coverage.
Careful with pet insurance. My sister in law had it on her english mastiff and they wouldn’t cover shit when she needed it. The dog ended up getting put down at the age of 4.
Sonofabitch. I get home home from the groomers at 4:30, set him down on the kitchen floor and he starts stumbling around like a drunk, neck curled back, flopping over, tremoring. Must have gone on for 60 seconds. He was coherent the whole time though, almost seemed more like a stroke or something. :ohnoes:
Off to the animal hospital for bloodwork when it opens at 6! My stupid vet was closed and the other one I called couldn’t take him.
:todwn: always sucks when a pet is having health issues, hope everything works out for you and the pup.
