5. I discovered that Chewy is now offering pet insurance

Yes, the on line pet food company. It is administered by Trupanion, but it is specifically created for Chewy customers. My daughter bought it for her dog, They reimburse at 90 percent, and with certain vets they are able to pay them directly, because they have a relationship with the veterinarian whereby they can accept direct payment from the insurance. Otherwise, it works like any other pet insurance, you pay the bill and are reimbursed the percentage after the deductible. I have a different pet insurance on my dogs but am thinking very seriously about switching one of my dogs to this one. The other dog had a very serious medical condition about 4 years ago and the insurance paid over 8,000 on the bill. It saved her life because the emergency vet could use expensive therapies. We hesitate to change her because she would never be covered by a different insurance company for that condition, and although it s unlikely it would ever come back, we do not want to risk it.
