Diet for an animal is certainly good, but what about the pain that a dog experiences when it has cancer, medications can also cause severe harm to health in a large dose, and so I would still test the possibilities of CBD products for the treatment of pain syndromes in dogs.

Pet Insurance

I went onto google and ask any good pet insurance for there value. There are tons of answers but you might look at these two.

Some years back, Consumer Report did a study on Pet insurance co and said its better to put $50 a month into a pet saving account.
The issues were the deductables, and some things not covered…
At least, that is what I remember for them putting thumbs down. -
I looked at one plan it did not seem to be a bad plan and covered about everything and cost was fairly low. Pet Plan like $2hundred something year.

Here is a website that has reviews and shows prices and services of many of the pet insurance companies.

Thanks for the link. I've been considering this as some plans are not all that expensive. For around $30/mo, it would be $1800 over 5 years in premiums and that leaves a ton of exposure for something to happen.
I might pick up a policy sometime in the next year when Kananga turns 2 yrs old. Vet bills can be expensive.
PurinaCare? Pet Health Insurance - seems like a solid choice from what I've read.

I guess I would rather put $30 a month into a special account just for the dog and then not have to worry about deductibles and non-coverage. I know vet bills can add up (when EL D got terminally ill it cost me about $2400) but I'd rather have all the possibilities covered than to find out an insurance won't cover this or that when you most need it.
-
I guess my worries are that I won't be disciplined enough to put the money aside, or to not touch it one it is there.
I would want coverage for foreign body, bloat, broken bones, dislocated joints, and most of all cancer. -
You should go to your bank and see if you can set up a special savings account where they deduct $30 a month from your checking account and deposit it in that savings account. Sort of like a vacation or Christmas account except you wouldn't neccessarily be making a yearly withdrawl.

We use VPI for our two. Fast response & great customer service. Rates vary per plan.

Just putting it out there…check with your car or homeowners company. They may offer it but not really advertise and you might get a break on price if you are already a client. I've seen commercials for Progressive auto that says that they automatically insure your pet as part of the auto policy. Don't know any details, just a commercial I've seen.
