Is dog insurance worth it? Yes, yes it is. Our la Is dog insurance worth it?

Yes, yes it is. Our last years experience with Cooper needing a surgery on his right knee following an injury really highlighted the need for one.

Luckily we did have it, but the limit was way too low so we had to dip in our savings for it.

In my new blog post I’ve listed the below:
* Bit of a backstory of our doggies
* What happened to Cooper
* The whole process from diagnoses to recovery
* All insurance details and how much it cost
* Plus my top tips you need to know
