There are about a dozen or so in the United States. They range in what they cover - some just cover accidents, or you can get a comprehensive policy that covers accidents/illnesses/routine care/dental care, but this is more expensive.In my opinion, pet insurance is good for accidents/illnesses and things that you can't plan for. (If you get coverage for vaccines, exams, etc. then you are really just paying the same amount through the insurance so it's not saving you any money)In regards to what the other person said, it's not true that they pay less as your pet gets older. It depends on the company of course, but my dog's insurance company will ALWAYS cover 90% of the bill no matter how big it is, how old she is, etc.All that sa! id-- if you were to get insurance for your dog, NO company will pay for the treatments, x-rays related to the limping because it's existing prior to the policy. Companies don't cover preexisting conditions (because if they did, then everyone with a hurt pet would sign up and bankrupt the company). But if you're interested in insurance for future possible illnesses/injuries, then I would definitely recommend it.My dog is insured with Trupanion, they are awesome, check it out!...answers 5:Several companies specialize in pet insurance but they don't cover incidental things like vaccinations or single visits to the vet. They're great fror a broken leg or a long term illness with a course of treatment. When the dog gets older the amount they'll pay reduces. With my last dog when she got to 14 they'd only meet 50% of the bill.answers 6:I know Progressive does. http://auto.progressive.com/progressive-car-insura...I t's only for if your dog is injured in a car accident though, so I! 'm not sure if it's any benefit to you.
