It's not worth hammering the insurance for £165 tbh.
If there is any chance she needs a follow up visit it maybe.
Depends on your excess really.
Virtually everything with the alasatian is linked to the diabetes. The vet is happy to put everything through as a continuation.
They put her insurance premium up 20% in October just gone and she was only 2 with no claims or pre existing conditions.
If its just a couple of quick follow up visits I don't want to make it a ridiculous rise this October.
Big changes on the way ! We've heard it before but it's different this time !!!! , I believe Bdo gonna grow x

The bandage is now pink after a change at the vets today. Only charged me £22.

Back in on Friday. Healing nicely apparently.

Do either of you use Animal Friends for pet insurance?

Petplan.

Never had to claim so can't comment on the process beyond them taking money off me every month.

They are a hell of a lot cheaper than other firms, My premium on our dog went up 9% this year and he is 5 years old which I thought was ok

Well the bandage is now off. So obviously she is now furiously trying to lick her leg as she hasn't been able to do so for the last week.
