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

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.<BR>-------------- next part

text/plain; charset="utf-8"<BR><BR>I currently do not have insurance on my two
9-year old basset hounds.<BR>However, Cowboy was insured with VPI from age
2-7. It cost around<BR>$33/month. He's been a healthy dog so we only made a
few claims but it was<BR>generally hassle free. I believe we got back around
70% of the cost for<BR>most of the claims we submitted.<BR><BR>VPI refused to
insure Rupert since he previously had a foreign object<BR>removal surgery. VPI
denied ensuring him stating that he was prone to<BR>eating things. Duh! That's
why I want to ensure him, I said. Regardless, I<BR>was able to find another
great insurance company by recommendation of a<BR>fellow drooler, called
PetCare Insurance. We opted to just get Ru the<BR>emergency only coverage. It
was around $10 a month. And it would cover any<BR>emergencies such as car
accident injuries, eating a foreign object to<BR>needing surgery, ingesting
poison, etcetera. It would not however cover<BR>regular routine care or
something such as cancer. They'd reimburse up to<BR>$2,000 per incident and
pee the person who referred me, they'd covered<BR>several foreign object
removal surgeries for the same hound with no hassle.<BR>Lucky for us, Rupert
stopped eating weird stuff and began only stealing our<BR>dinners. We never
did make a claim on that policy though we paid it for<BR>about 5
years.<BR><BR>Ultimately now that they are both 9, we cancelled their
insurance. We are<BR>more financially secure than we were when they were
younger, and at this<BR>point we know that we would not go through tremendous
measures to save them<BR>should they come down with a horrible cancer. Anyway
hope this is helpful<BR>to you as you can search for a good insurance company
for your dog. I feel<BR>they can be good if you do not have a good savings
account and you do not<BR>want to be traumatized when a huge vet bill arises.
However if your dog is<BR>generally healthy and you don't go to the vet very
often beside routine<BR>care, you could probably just set aside the $50 a
month you'd pay an<BR>insurance and pretty quickly accumulate a nice little
chunk of change for<BR>emergencies.<BR><BR>Drool on,<BR>Kacy with Cow and

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. <BR><BR>Lisa and
