as for insurance...i pay 40 bucks a month...not sure of the coverage but i think this was one of the better policies...when norm had his knee surgery, it was $4,200...they paid roughly $1,600
and, as with all insurance, you're still kind of getting f**ked.
if little normie lives to be 14 (and I'll bet he does), you will have paid in $6720. will they pay that much back to you?
insurance = :x
yeah i know...i've gone back and forth over keeping it almost since i started...

to get off subject, my AARP ass has paid probably flushed $50K down the drain on unused car insurance since I quit having accidents in my heavy partying 20s :x

As for insurance... its one of those things you wish you had when you need it, and wonder why you bother to pay for it when you dont. odds are you'll never fully get back what you put in, and in these times... who can afford any unnecessary expense? I really do believe that one of the best things you can do for your dog preventative-wise is feed them good food and keep them active and at a healthy weight. Be smart, read labels & stay away from any food that has bi-products in it. My dog is so much healthier than any other dog in my family... and they're all fairly close in age. Only difference is that all the other dogs eat what the vets push on you... and those are not always the best options.

this was zeke, he was only nine. he had a stomach tumor - i wonder if it was caused by pet food.
if i were ever to get another dog (right now i'm thinking NO) i would only feed it organic raw food.
i would also make sure i put away 3 grand for medical bills. i know it probably really depends on the
situation, but i've had pet insurance in the past and it's never paid.
Zeke, you were as cute as can be. Bet you were just as sweet as you looked.
I go through periods where I'm torn about what to feed my dogs and what's really best for them. Right now they are both really healthy and active so I'm not so concerned but I'm sure it will come up again.
Well following his surgery I of course requested a cone of shame photo :oops:
an oldie but a goodie.
