Hello, I adopted a rescue dog in November. I purchased Fetch insurance in March. They will not cover any anxiety meds or treatment for his anxiety due to it being "pre-existing". Early vet visits mentioned his anxiety . I'm pretty discouraged that this is being held against him. Are there any insurance plans that cover behavioral issues despite it being pre-existing. My vet even argued that my dog has Seperation Anxiety which is a different dx than anxiety and it was still denied.

I have one of my dogs on insurance, the other one isn't, both of them ended up with allergies before I was able to get insurance going (my first girl showed clinical signs in the first 2 weeks). It's unfortunate as they're both rescues and it's a bit out of my control as they weren't puppies when I got them. I'm thinking about cancelling my first girls because it's done absolutely nothing for me, and switching to Banfield's care packages. I currently pay $45 a month for one of mine. Just curious if anyone has experience with them, and if so do they think it's worth it over actual pet insurance?

Hi everyone, I have a 9 month old maltipoo. I suspect he has chronic GERD since he throws up yellow bile if he goes around 6-8 hours without a full meal (like overnight or when he is stubborn and wont eat his lunch). This is to say I want to take him to the vet asap. But before that I wanted to add dental coverage to his policy just in case this issue persists and it causes teeth problems later in his life and then they wont cover it because it was a “pre-existing condition.” Dental work on dogs is very expensive! My problem now is that I emailed asking how I can go about adding this to my policy since I couldn’t find how to do so on their app. This is the response I got. i don’t understand why I can’t ADD coverage. I want to pay MORE money. I wasn’t aware that when I bought the insurance for the year it was locking the policy for that entire year. Now I’m thinking of cancelling all together and renewing with the actual coverage that I wanted. Has anyone tried doing that? Would they let me? Or would they recognize my name and vets and ban me or something. Thank you for all the help TLDR; has anyone been able to cancel their Lemonade pet insurance and renew with the actual coverage/policy they wanted?

We got pets best insurance a few years ago and this year our 9 year old dog was diagnosed with lymphoma. After a few months of receiving expected claims, they suddenly started denying everything, forcing us to appeal every time. After appeals, they usually end up paying, but it’s incredibly annoying. But this month, our policy renewal came and they DOUBLED our premium!! DOUBLED, in the first and only year where we actually made claims…. How is this legal? They say it’s across all their plans, but I don’t believe it for a second. Anyone have this happen?

My dog has IVDD and hit the $10k annual limit this year. I’ve been paying $178.49/month for 90% reimbursement and a $500 deductible. Now my provider wants to increase it to $248.59/month for the same coverage, which is a 39% increase ($840 more per year). Has anyone found a provider that covers chronic conditions like IVDD without this kind of rate hike? I’m open to switching if the new insurer doesn’t exclude spinal issues and will accept pre-existing.

Hi all! I have a 13 year old German shepherd mix Pitbull grandpa baby with no pre existing conditions. I took him to the vet recently and it looks like he may have signs of arthritis at his back legs. Aside from that he is relatively healthy and has a few years strong(hopefully) My question is whether to continue my current insurance with nationwide or switch to something relatively cheaper/better or stash cash. I recently used it for his visit and they only covered 70 % of the visit, vaccine was not included and I have a 250 deductible. My premium is about 200 a month. My family and I think aside from emergencies and possible end of life care we’re not sure if the premium is worth it. Any advice is deeply appreciated!

I've only had pet insurance for 1 year, through my work. I just received a letter stating that my policy is no longer available to me, but I can have their "My Pet Protection Choice" to continue coverage. The policy seems to cover less, and my premiums went up! The doodle (age 3) went from $218 to $458/year and the cavalier (almost 2) went from $270 to $781. The only thing I've filed was when my doodle had a bump in his ear, that healed on it's own, and my payment was just applied to the deductible. For my cavalier, she had a UTI. So, while I begin to shop around, anyone to consider? Or avoid? And how much do you typically pay in an annual premium? Maybe I just have sticker shock and these premiums are fair? Edit to include- this isn't a wellness plan, they cover 70%. Annual coverage for accidents is $5000, Illness $5000, Congenital and Hereditary $5000, Cruciate $5000, Rx foo $100, Behavioral $100

I love my dog but I cannot afford to pay $1600 a year for something I've hardly needed so far (since it only covers emergencies and not routine stuff). I do wanna insure him, but $135 for a healthy 7yo dog is beyond insane. Is there _anyone_ out there that won't completely hose me on premiums?

I have a almost 2 year doodle whom I just spent over 7K on for sugery to remove a sock.2 days after surgery the site got infected and the sutures ripped. I’ve been looking at pet insurance reviews but it all seems so overwhelming and it feels like the good and the bad are balanced. Currently i’m looking for a company that will pay up front which based on what i’m seeing that would be Trupanion as i’m constantly living in fear and has gotten extreme anxiety from always thinking he’s gonna swallow something again. I’ve always swiped out my savings to practically save his life. Any advice or help would be appreciated!!
