Lurcher Insurance

[kruby01 114]

I've seen a lot of people struggling to get insurance for their lurchers, I phoned petplan today and I said straight up I want to insure a working lurcher and she will be used lamping rabbits they said that's fine and I've just taken out a lifetime policy with £7000 of cover for £22 a month

Why would you tell them it's a working lurcher?

 

That's like me ringing direct line and saying "hello, just letting you know I drive like a cock, exceed all speed limits and often undertake on the motorway"! Lol.

What happens when your dog breaks its leg at 3am and you turn up at the vets in full camo a big lamp in one hand a bag of rabbits in the other and your dog on a slip lead? My two pet dogs cost £40 for both so for the sake of £2 more a month why not tell them?

Leave the lamp and rabbits in the motor.

Exactly mate they weren't bothered in the slightest so for an extra £2 I'm happy knowing she's 100% covered

That's a good deal. My parents pay £36 a month for their norwegian elk hound. So at £22 that a steal.

If they were I would leave lamp and rabbits in the car anyway. Lol.

Emergency vets are open at 3am and I don't have a car at the moment anymore and won't for another 2 months so I walk to my permissions and my emergency vets is also walking distance so if my dog has a bone sticking out her leg I'm not going to stop off at home to get changed and freshen up am I?
