tesco for two lurchher i got a quote for 19 a month and a 60 pound excess

 

but i dint take it because if my dogs have a bad enough injury then i would have them pts

 

all its costin me is 20 check ups and the odd 20 pounds for any stichin or jabs needed

 

the vet i use he is cheap so i would be payin more for the excess than the actual vet bill

I have used the NFU for 10 years to insure my dogs, can not recommend them highly enough. I've claimed thousands over the years without problem. I would never keep an uninsured dog now . . . . . . . A few years ago, a good family friend of my fathers lost everything after his 3 shepards escaped and caused a major road accident, in which a lady was killed. You just never know whats round the corner.

Only advise I have been given over and over is always get a 'life time' policy, the rest have too many loop holes to not pay out! The 'Which' website can explain more.......

Marks and spencers i use, classed as a mixed breed dog.

MoreThan insurance, are as cheap as most, and were fantastic with our friends Labrador. The insurance start date had not "kicked in" so they technically did not have to pay out. They did though, and covered all bills even when the dog was sent to the vets teaching centre up in Scotland for specialist treatment. It would have cost about £3,000

We are now with MoreThan.
