Post by: New England Native on March 04, 2009, 05:54:21 PM: does anyone use dog insurance? pros/cons about it? I'm getting a yellow lab in a couple of weeks and i didn't even know there was a such thing till a week ago someone mentioned it to me.

It is like any insurance, carefully read what is covered, know your breed and make sure you know what they are "prone" to and make the call. As it turned out my buddy's dog had a few problems with his legs (very large lab) and it helped out. I do not know what he paid for the coverage but I think he felt better knowing he had it. The dog lived the be 15.
