…not necessarily because of the insurance, but the lack there of.
Via WEBC WIlmington, Pet Parents in Wilmington, NC share their story of Echo, their two year old border collie, and his leap off a three story porch.
This is how it goes;
dog gets restless -> jumps off three story porch -> breaks leg -> pet parents pay over $2,600.00 for the surgery, out of pocket, right away.
This happens often, it’s happen in my family and like the family focused in the WEBC story I’m sure we share the similar post incident feeling of having had the opportunity to have avoided the situation all together. This isn’t so much a pro pet insurance statement as it is a pro being informed one. Alot of pet parents keep themselves from purchasing pet insurance purely out of lack of information on it.
But really, $2,600.00 for a broken leg. I’d rather be insured.
