Insurance and update on cody xx

Heya Everyone just a quick update on cody he is doing so well now he's eating proper meals and scratching less but seems to be a proper lil chewer atm has broke every toy i have given him in seconds even pigs ear are going in seconds lol : but i just wanted to ask a quick question is it worth getting out insurance on him and if so whats the best one as ive tried petplan and gunna cost me £28.49 a month so wanna see if anyone knows any cheaper ones or are they a good company or is it worth just putting money into a saving account xx

Good news the scratchings better as for the toys, well, welcome to the wonderful world of Staffies

Insurance in my mind is a must considering my Flo has cost me about £5000 in vet bills because we were between insurances and hadn't renewed. I know some people put the premiums into an account as you've suggested and when there is a good amount in there there's no worries so it really is a personal preference but one I'm sure others will have a view on.

Here's a link to the insurance section here, it'll give you some ideas:-

I used to be with pet plan but they kept putting up their prices even though I had never claimed! I'm now with animal friends and pay £12.50 a month. Again, have never had to claim so can't say how they have been regarding that, but I've read all good reviews

Sounds like he's coming on well

Thanks for that Rachel, i have been considering getting insurance for Maya. Got 4 free weeks with the puppy pack from the vets, but when that expires i think i will use animal friends.

Here`s the link for Cody as well. https://www.animalfriends.org.uk/dog-insurance/?infinity=gaw~Brand~ins~70875496483~animal%20friends%20insurance~e&gclid=CjwKEAjw8qetBRCj6vKH8IC_kwoSJADGQ8dSiA-AtNbRLHS1z3F7QC1GpK9DR7nHWd54iP51MqOLuxoC9nfw_wcB

thank you xx

Think I will look at animal friends too, I'm with petplan and pay nearly £30 a month don't fancy finding out that they keep upping the price cheers rach

They've got great reviews and give to animal charities too - so it's a win win really

I'm with Animal Friends and whilst I've never claimed (touch wood) so I can't say how effective it is, it costs £22.75 per month for the Superior Plus option, which has a £4K annual condition limit.

I just had a look at the petplan policy, and to be honest for the price, the Animal Friends cover is just as good, if not better.

Make sure to read the small print before taking out an insurance policy:)

Crystal the 4 breeds covered under the 91 DDA are the Pit Bull Terrier, Japanese Tosa, Dogo Argentino and
Fila Braziliero. These have to have specialist insurance. I've never known an insurance policy not to cover Staffs - they're no different to a Labrador legally.

Cheers terry I'll look into it
