AMAZING !!!
Archie tried to eat a bee - it stung him on the inside of his mouth - he started throwing up, and having trouble breathing.Off to the Emergency Clinic for treatment.
We submitted the claim by Fax the next morning, we had an immediate response by e-mail from Trupanion and the claim was processed and paid in less than a week.
Trupanion staff are helpful, supportive, and knowledgeable.
This is our third dog and third insurance company (one per dog !). This is the best yet.
Thanks, Trupanion
This was the third time we had submitted a claim, and the previous two were handled in the same efficient, professional manner.

Protect your "Best Friend"
We have had ASPCA Pet Insurance since our two 9 year old SpringerSpaniels were 2 years old. They have been very healthy for most of
their lives and we used the insurance for minor diagnostic incidences.
However, our female,Savanna had ACL surgery earlier this year and our
male, Spencer recently had test after test done to no avail and passed
away a month ago. It is heartbreaking to watch your "best friend" go
through an illness. Having this wonderful insurance helped us fund the
treatment that brought Savanna back to her daily walks. Unfortunately,
all the tests for our beloved Spencer couldn't cure his cancer but we
were able to give him every chance available with the help of ASPCA. On
top of that we received a beautiful sympathy card from ASPCA after
Spencer passed. It touched our hearts that they care. Thank you - we
wouldn't be without it.

another easy claim experience
My dog had 2 lumps on his chest that had grown very rapidly over the last 2 months. We had both removed and checked by a pathologist. The total bill was close to $1100, which included a dental cleaning (not included in his plan) we decided to do while he was under anesthesia. In less than 2 weeks, Embrace reimbursed use for their percentage of everything covered under his plan.

Great for young dogs too
I insured my 6-month-old Chihuahua/terrier mix right from the start, even though she is a healthy, young pup. Perhaps I had learned my lesson from a previous pet who fell ill when I was unemployed. I felt so helpless and went into debt because as a pet parent, I tried to do all that I can for my then Shih Tzu, who later died after being hospitalized for a week.
Needless to say, I never want to be in that place again. I weeped every time I went into the animal hospital to pay for the remaining bill, which my vet was nice enough to offer me an installment plan.
This is my first pet with insurance, and I'm learning the benefits as we go. We're less than one year into the policy, and I've filed about 5 claims from booster shots, annual checkup to upset stomach and surgery to get spayed.
Sure, not everything is covered under my plan and some misc. items such as waste disposal fee and some blood tests are not covered. But having said that, it has more than paid for itself for a peace of mind that is priceless. I met my deductible 6 months into the plan, and I'm a firm believer now and I plan on renewing pet insurance next year. I wanted to write this so it may help someone in need too.
As for ASPCA, the agents on the phone have all been very personable. I have a great experience with them because they understand my needs. Check it out for yourself and see what plans right for your pet. Mine's a level 3 wellness plan and I feel it's sufficient for a young, healthy pe

Trupanion is the pet insurane to have!!!
Trupanion is incredible. My 4 yr old rottie Marley is an accident waiting to happen. I have spent more money in medical expenses in his 4 years than I did on two other rotties that both lived to be 12 yrs. So I decided that it was time to purchase insurance. After researching various plans I decided on Trupanion. Less than two months after enrolling, Marley tore his ACL and required surgery ($3858). Unbelievabley Trupanion has covered 90% of the cost of this surgery. I cannot say enough good things about this insurance!! I am not someone who usually writes reviews but this company has come through for me. I would highly recommend Trupanion.

Wellness Plan works for me!
I insured my mixed breed dog 4 months ago, and when his birthday rolled around I took him in for his annual healthy dog exam. Because I had insurance I felt free to let our [trusted] vet perform whatever tests he felted he needed to in order to insure that Abijah was healthy. Our bill came to $261, and although my allowable reinbursement was only $200, it certainly took the "ouch" out of the bill. My Customer Service rep was ontop of my claim, and my reinbursement hit in 8 days. I consider the Wellness Policy sort of a savings plan for my dog (as my payment just about covers the $200 allowed). This works for me. :)

We are very happy with our new insurance.
We have recently switched over to Embrace and are very happy with the new insurance. They are prompt, extremely responsive, and they cover what they said they would cover with no hidden agendas or surprises. We are recommending embrace to all of our friends with pets.

Fast, Excellent Service
I bought this policy when my dog was very young, after having paid for a very expensive hospital stay to treat pneumonia. I have used it as a buffer in case anything untoward ever happened to her, while paying up front on my own for any normal wellness care. The first time I had to make a claim was for juvenile cataracts after having held the policy for a couple years. The surgery was over $2000 and I was very nervous about dealing with the insurance. Well my nervousness turned out to be totally unnecessary. I was covered for 90% of the surgery and Embrace was efficient, polite, and prompt with payment. My boston has nearly 100% vision and I could not be more pleased with Embrace's response. The only reason I do not give this policy a 10 is that it is one of the more expensive ones out there. Worth it for me though.
