Gun Dog Insurance

Do any of you insure your gun dog? If you do what company/s do you use and how much does it cost and what does it cover you for?

Cheers

Hi, I insure my Lab bitch with more>than.

 

It cost`s me £14.99 at the moment it`s just gone up, but they are good at paying out with claims.

 

I claimed for my first Lab bitch who sadly died, they paid me the full cost of her purchase.

 

And the bitch i have now had a cut pad that needed emegency vet & stitching cost me about £400 in vets bills, glad i was insured.

 

Also more>than pay for treatment for the rest of the dogs life if it becomes say diabetic or something long term.

 

Other companys will only pay the first 12 months

When looking for Insurnace always, always check out the small print.

 

Currently tesco are looking good on price.

 

If you need to make a claim always state you were out 'walking with your dog' when the accident happened.

 

Never state it was while you were out picking up, shooting, beating.

 

I learnt this mistake once.

I haven't found a "high street" insurer that will cover a dog used for any sort of work or show. I use a local broker and it costs me £9.47p/m

not all companies are like that virgil.....we insure with pet plan and they pay for life as well.

just took out more than insurance for my lab pup £10 a month....with cver for life....not bad if you ask me !

 

the litter sister to this dog ate a dish cloth last week and it cost the owner £1200 in vet fees.... i wouldnt like to think that after putting in all the time and effort that i would have to put the dog down due to not being able to pay a vet bill, its a horrible thought but it does happen !
