LOVING THAT WE GOT INSURANCE for my 7 month old Boxer! Brady decided that it was a great idea to eat part of my tempur petic bed topper which ended us at the vet. 385 dollars later we found out he was fine! We were able to get 308 back from this vist ! without embrace i would be a really really pour grad student !

If I could give Embrace a rating of 11 I Would

Words cannot really express how grateful I am to have chosen Embrace. I am a first time dog owner and did a great deal of research in order to choose the best pet insurance on the market. I am 100% confident my research paid off. My experience with Embrace has been truly exceptional. The customer service is superb, the claims are processed very efficiently and everyone I have dealt with at the company has been terrific. I just recently experienced a truly traumatic situation in which my 3 year old pup was diagnosed with kidney failure and required extended hospitalization in order for her to survive. The folks at Embrace were very sympathetic and kind and processed my claims extremely quickly - no questions asked. They also took the time to answer any and all questions and kept me informed of when my claims were received and processed all along the way. Embrace is a shining example of what all companies should aspire to. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Embrace to any pet owner.

Very impressed with Embrace

Disappointing past experience with another pet insurance company left me somewhat hesitant to try Embrace, but I am very impressed. A nasty laceration suffered by one of my Danes required two separate surgeries to successfully close. My claim was handled in a most professional, yet compassionate manner and checks were issued in a timely fashion. I am also especially pleased Embrace offers coverage of alternative therapies and treatments. I believe this is one of the better, perhaps the best companies for pet insurance.

Very Bad Experience with Embrace

Our two pomeranians have had embrace as their insurance provider for the past 3 years or now but boy are we regretting it. After faithfully paying out a considerable # of claims for us, Embrace has decided to CHANGE THE RULES in terms of their amount of reimbursement. Our two dogs need laser treatments for the continued ailments, and instead of providing us with full/almost full coverage (as they used to provide) of said laser treatments , they are now paying us a maximum of $50 (for a $200+ treatment). They have also decided that a recent injection (an antibiotic) for one of our dogs was "overpriced" by the Vet, and they refunded us $25 instead of the $150 the injection cost us. So ALL OF A SUDDEN, Embrace has switched what was their routine procedures/reimbursements with us, to their liking. We don't know what other provider we will switch to, but I can tell you from our experience Embrace is becoming more and more unethical. STAY AWAY from Embrace.

The Appeal Process works!!

My Great Dane puppy was seen by the vet for a swollen ankle and an ear infection was a secondary diagnosis. On the claim form, the vet's office wrote ear infection/infection/injury, which was denied intially by Embrace due to my puppy's pre-existing ear infections. This bill was over $1000 for x-rays, labs, and medications. I submitted an appeal via email and had a letter sent by my vet's office explaining my puppy's condition and with in 2 weeks Embrace agreed to pay a portion of the bill ($150) but this was after my $500 deductible. The portion of the bill was for the ankle injury....not the pre-existing ear infections. So my lesson learned is....pay attention to the vet's diagnosis and make sure it is clear what your dog was actually treated for. The claims and appeal process was much easier than I thought it would be.
