I do have insurance on my dogs. I didn't have it for my dog that I had for 11 years, but when he suddenly had some major medical issues last year, it was EXTREMELY expensive! I too had also put money to the side in case I ever needed it, but I can also tell you that his care was thousands and thousands of dollars. So, when I added new dogs after losing him, I went back and forth and finally decided to add it.
I can also say that while I was still in the thirty day waiting period and trying to decide if I would keep it, we had an emergency happen, and the insurance ended up saving me alot of money! So, I am happy with my decision.
I know that if something serious were to happen, I would definitely do whatever I could possibly do, and I just didn't want to chance that again...especially after spending so much extra money last year. |
