Life happens.  Pet insurance helps you be prepared for the unexpected.  Pet insurance is a wonderful way of ensuring that your pet is covered in case of an emergency. 

There are many different companies that offer pet insurance.  Each of them require you to pay your veterinarian up front and then they send you a reimbursement depending on your plan. 

Some plans include annual vaccinations, annual blood work, annual dental, and some even cover to spay or neuter, while others may only cover emergencies.  

Most plans do not cover pre-exisiting conditions and may have limitations on diseases common in certain breeds. Plans also may differ in the amount paid for certain diseases as well as premiums and deductibles.  

Choose your plan wisely, educate yourself on your options before you decide on a plan.  You will get the most out of your pet insurance plan if your pet is enrolled as soon as it becomes part of your family.

Camino Al Norte Animal Hospital believes that pet insurance is a wonderful tool to help in your pet's comprehensive life healthcare plan, however,  we do not endorse any particular pet insurance company.   

Feel free to ask your veterinarian for more information,  we would be happy to help you choose which plan is right for your four-legged family member!
