When I was looking for pet insurance, I narrowed it down to four that I was interested in and then completed each company's questionnaire for an estimate. Good luck!

| I have AKC Pet Partners. I pay $560 per yr with $100 deductible. Zoey is 5 yrs old and I have had to use it twice per year so it pays for itself in returned vet bills.

| We have Embrace and it recently came in very handy for an injury. I was reimbursed 90% minus the $500 deductible. I wouldn't sign on for lifetime care of an animal without insurance. We also have their wellness plan. We pay about $35 average per dog monthly plus the wellness plan.

Donating Senior Yorkie Talker | I am shopping for the best Pet Insurance - called VPI - which is now Nationwide Pet Insurance and found the heredity limit of $250 and do not cover luxating patella. Shopping around also. |

| I agree. I recently had to submit claims for Teddy after he would not eat. I took him to my vet and they wanted to run full labs, tick screens, and pancreatitis test. Then when he still didn't eat they wanted to do an ultrasound. All of this added up, I exceeded my deductible for the year and submitted my claim to Embrace. They paid the claim in two or so weeks. I just renewed my policy for the upcoming year and we are going into our third year. The premiums haven't increased much each year and I get a multi pet discount. I really like the company.

| I had to call Home Again for micro-chip replacement tag, after that was completed they connected me with the pet insurance that is connected with them, name is Pet First Health Care www.petfirst.com. My charge card is my pet insurance lol. I have never seen this name mentioned on YT, I asked how long they were in business, was told over 11 years, doesn't sit well with me. I briefly looked at their website. They told me what ever package I was interested in to call them back, as a Home Again member they discount the price that is listed on their web page. Has anyone used Pet First Health Care or know of anyone that has. I am leery of extended warranties, when ever I had one, what ever my problem was, it was never covered under the warranty, so I never get them for anything. I feel the same way about Pet Insurance.
