GDA36: Should You Get Pet Insurance? - a podcast by Fernando Camacho
from 2014-06-03T00:26:48
Is pet insurance important? Is your pet insured? Do you even know that there are insurance policies for pets?
Pet insurance has been available for us for quite a while now. However, many of us don’t really understand how it works. Many don’t see the importance of getting one for their pets and most people probably see it as an extra expense.
Is it worth it to get an insurance for your pet? I personally, am no expert in this area. So to help us understand more about this, I’ve invited Dr. Doug Kenney, a veterinarian from Tennessee, who has done a lot of research about pet insurance and has also created a guide in understanding and choosing a pet insurance.
