| Pet Insurance I'm looking for advice that will help me choose the right Pet Insurance for my Yorkies...Any suggestions? Last week my little guy (Myles) had a Bordetella shot and had a bad reaction! He had to hospitalized over night...The company that made the vaccine will be charged for the stay...When I saw the bill, I couldn't believe it!!! I would like to have some type of coverage for the future... Thx for the help... |

| I have Trupanion Pet Insurance on both of my yorkies and to say the least, it has been a life saver to me. There are many pet insurance out there though and they all vary. So you may want to scout around looking at all the benefits and such each pet insurace company has to offer. I really like Trupanion though. They are very quick to pay on the claims that I send in also. Good Luck |

| I suspect this decision will vary depending on the individual/furbaby and their circumstances. I would suggest you read through this recent thread for some guidance. Especially take note of the link on pet insurance ratings, as I found this very helpful. Goodluck!! http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/yor...-question.html Here is the Pet Insurance Review link I was referring to: http://petinsurancereview.com/dog.asp

| I had posted about this topic before and it's an iffy situation. One insurance I checked out only covers accidents ONLY!! They will not cover any illnesses or something that that particuliar breed is prone to....what's the good of that??!! So, when I take Lucky to my Vet next month for his Heartworm medication renewal, I am going to ask their opinion on who is best for coverage. I mean if anyone knows who gives good coverage it would be the animal hospital.....right? I understand your reaction on the high cost of a vet bill....it's outrageous!!! I live in Ontario and it's a crazy high price here too......
