Thank You
When my 9 year old vizsla was diagnosed with cancer we were devastated. The docs told us what type of cancer they thought she had but were not certain. This uncertainty gave us hope that maybe it wasn't the worst kind. The only way to find out was to treat it by shrinking it, surgery and then pathology. If we didn't have ins I'm not sure we could treat her knowing her chances are slim. But now we are going for it and hoping for the best. The people at HP on the phone have been incredibly kind. One representative even shared her story with me about when her dog got cancer and how difficult it was. They are covering everything and wishing us the best. This is my first experience with pet ins and I will recommend HP to all my friends and family. Thank you HP, for the comfort, the peace of mind and for making Maggy's future hopeful.

First Claim--Wellness
I recently adopted a cat and decided to insure her. I chose Embrace based on online reviews, plus they have a great wellness plan, which I purchased. I took my new cat to the vet for her vaccines and submitted the claim last Thursday via fax. I received an email that the fax was received and that I would hear something in 5-10 business days. It's now Monday and I just received an email that my reimbursement check is coming to me today. I'm impressed with the level of communication and the timeliness of communication. Already glad I decided to go with Embrace.

Terrible! Don't buy this insurance
We have had our dog since July 2012. She has been under the care of the same vet since the day we adopted her. She blew her ACL at 9 months old. Both her primary treating vet and the surgeon who repaired the knee said over and over again that this was an accident and not a pre-existing condition. Our vet contacted Embrace on multiple occasions and told them the same. Embrace denied the claim across the board.
Earlier this month the same dog had a UTI. It was her second one in a year. Under Embrace's policy, this too was considered a pre-exiting condition. Again, claim denied. The only thing they have not denied is my automatic payment to a worthless policy every month! Now we're screwed for getting new coverage. BUYER BEWARE!!!! DO NOT BUY THIS CRAPPY INSURANCE unless you like throwing money into a black hole! If you don't believe me, read the below which was taken directly from their denial e-mail to me.
A snippet of their denial letter:
I have reviewed Gabby's claim along with your pet insurance policy and based upon that review, I am sorry to inform you that this claim is not covered under your policy.
Gabby's medical history indicates that she had signs of polyuria (i.e. increased urination) on 5/13/2013, which was prior to the start of your policy coverage. As such, this initiated an exclusion to coverage for polyuria (and any related conditions - such as urinary tract infections). It is a temporary exclusion (as we deem something like polyur

AMAZING!!
This company is AMAZING!
They answer my emails usually within 24 hours and the customer service when you call them is excellent. They even lowered my monthly premium because I moved to a different part of the city.
My vet gave me several brochures for pet insurance and after researching all of them I'm so glad I made the decision to go with Trupanion.

Thank you Healthy Paws!
Signing up for Healthy Paws was the best decision we made for our dog. She recently had to go through surgery and believe it or not (if you're used to dealing with human insurance) dealing with Heathy Paws was extremely easy and simple. They covered everything that was expected, were extremely responsive, typically approved charges the next day with a check in my mailbox a few days after, and even emailed to ask how our dog was feeling. I've recommended healthy paws to all of my pet owning friends and would do the same to anyone reading this review.

Easy and efficient service
I have never had to use Embrace for any serious treatment for my dog. However for a multitude of wellness checks and minor issues, Embrace has been wonderful. It's easy to submit a claim and they are usually processed in a timely manner. Thank you, Embrace!
