[Dailydrool] Snoopy

Sun Jun 28 18:10:50 PDT 2015

Turned the calendar page today, and what do I see but a picture of a  
gorgeous hound resting peacefully.  Snoopy sure is handsome.  Happy  10th birthday
 to you from Millie and me.  I hope you have many more.

Murphy and Jack are insured with Healthy  Paws. I wish my own insurance 
were as good as theirs! Jack?s recent kidney  stone surgery and followup was 
very expensive. Once I had all the paperwork  in, I had a check in a few days, 
no questions asked.

They also have an  app for your phone. You can take a photo of your vet 
bill and send it  directly. So convenient. Or you can submit a claim online, or 
mail it  in.

The LA Times did a comparison of all the pet insurance companies  last year 
and they liked Healthy Paws the best. They cover cancer treatment  and some 
?alternative? treatments like acupuncture. Check them  out!

MBR is liquidating. A new basset rescue  has been started. The name of the 
new rescue is Basset Hound Rescue of  Michigan. It is currently a 
non-profit without 501c3 status. The 501c3  paperwork is being submitted 
and will hopefully be approved soon.  

Thank you very much, Miz Christina. My Auntie Feyfey taught that  it is 
important for the poor hounds of Michigan to be looked after. We are  very 
pleased that there is light at the end of their tunnel.  

Sincerely, 

Pawtunia and Rusty

I?ve had Pet Plan insurance for my lab for years. Last  year I had a claim 
for a torn ACL and they promptly paid when I submitted the  bills. Didn?t 
think I?d ever use it but they paid about $3200 of a $4000 bill.  Worked 
great. Our basset has no claims yet. I?ve definitely gotten more back  then what 
we?ve paid for the last 6 years.

I currently do not have insurance on my two  9-year old basset hounds.
However, Cowboy was insured with VPI from age  2-7. It cost around
$33/month. He's been a healthy dog so we only made a  few claims but it was
generally hassle free. I believe we got back around  70% of the cost for
most of the claims we submitted.

VPI refused to  insure Rupert since he previously had a foreign object
removal surgery. VPI  denied ensuring him stating that he was prone to
eating things. Duh! That's  why I want to ensure him, I said. Regardless, I
was able to find another  great insurance company by recommendation of a
fellow drooler, called  PetCare Insurance. We opted to just get Ru the
emergency only coverage. It  was around $10 a month. And it would cover any
emergencies such as car  accident injuries, eating a foreign object to
needing surgery, ingesting  poison, etcetera. It would not however cover
regular routine care or  something such as cancer. They'd reimburse up to
$2,000 per incident and  pee the person who referred me, they'd covered
several foreign object  removal surgeries for the same hound with no hassle.
Lucky for us, Rupert  stopped eating weird stuff and began only stealing our
dinners. We never  did make a claim on that policy though we paid it for
about 5  years.

Ultimately now that they are both 9, we cancelled their  insurance. We are
more financially secure than we were when they were  younger, and at this
point we know that we would not go through tremendous  measures to save them
should they come down with a horrible cancer. Anyway  hope this is helpful
to you as you can search for a good insurance company  for your dog. I feel
they can be good if you do not have a good savings  account and you do not
want to be traumatized when a huge vet bill arises.  However if your dog is
generally healthy and you don't go to the vet very  often beside routine
care, you could probably just set aside the $50 a  month you'd pay an
insurance and pretty quickly accumulate a nice little  chunk of change for
emergencies.

Drool on,
Kacy with Cow and  Ru

I can't recommend Trupanion highly  enough. Bertie (now 12 1/2) has been 
with them since puppyhood. In the course  of the last two years alone they've 
paid out some $40,000  ... without  which he quite simply wouldn't be here 
now. Premium is currently about  $100/month (that's approximately $80 U.S.)

Well worth it.

I have had Pet Insurance since 1999. I  started out with VPI but, no longer 
use them. I am with Pet's Best now and I  am very happy. They are very 
efficient and I have money in my account within a  week. VPI takes a week or two 
to even start on your claim. I believe they were  bought out a while ago 
and it seems every time I turned around they would not  cover a claim that I 
submitted for Wednesday and I had her the Top of the Line  Coverage too with 
them.  I had a 9 month fight after she passed but, I  won out. I will never 
insure with them again. I know Pet's Best so well I have  a Sales Agent I 
work with and email. There is another insurance out there I  read good things 
about but, can't remember the name.
