And Taffy and Kosmo's only remaining littermate Sebastian, who belongs to a friend of mine.

Anyway, we have decided to go with PetPlan. PetPlan is the only pet insurance that covers inherited diseases and allows you to pick your deductible and your percentage of reimbursement. Of course the lower the deductible and higher percent remimbursement will have a higher monthly payment but it is still resaonable. The gold plan also has other options.

This is straight from their website Petplan Pet Insurance for Dogs and Cats - hope this helps

Petplan policies provide the most comprehensive reimbursement for veterinary fees relating to treatment administered by a licensed veterinarian for illness or injury (provided that it is not pre-existing or occurred during a waiting period) such as:

*Hospitalization - including emergency treatment
*Diagnostic testing - such as MRIs, x-rays, endoscopy
*Surgery - including cruciate ligament surgery and organ transplants but not spay/neuter
*Cancer treatment - regardless of the type of cancer
*Non-routine dental treatment - such as tooth extraction, root canal but not routine teeth cleaning
*Prescription medications
*Referral and specialist treatment
*Alternative and complementary treatments - such as acupuncture, hydrotherapy or chiropractic treatment

Depending on the type of policy that you select we can also pay for:
*Advertising and reward costs if your dog goes missing
*Boarding fees if you're hospitalized and no-one else can look after your dog
*Vacation cancellation due to your dog’s life-threatening illness or injury, and
*Compensation if you lose your dog through straying, illness or injury

Thank you so much for this info girl! I read this post from you earlier today but of course I am just now sitting down and replying to everyone. I was just going to forget about the insurance because as Kellie mentioned in a previous post, all of my babies conditions are pre-existing so the insurance probably wouldn't cover anything anyway, but I will check in to this one you mentioned just to see what all they offer.

Thank you so much!
