BORDERSCOT 3,816 Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 Do any of you have your dogs insured. I realise that hunting, racing and coursing (which is banned anyway) would void your policy. And that some breeds are exempt - they'll insure lurchers but not deerhounds??? But a dog getting killed in another way (i.e running into a wire net fence) - which we've read about on this site in the past few days would be covered as would theft, illness etc. I'm thinking of insuring my pup. Any thoughts, experience would be appreciated. Quote Link to post

Neal 1,873 Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 Does anybody have experience of covering via the NFU? I just thought that perhaps they'd be more working dog friendly. Quote Link to post
