Would you keep lifetime pet insurance after lipoma treatment or switch?

Hi,

My dog has just turned 7 and had X2 lipomas removed back in April. His pet insurance is due for renewal and has more than doubled going from £21 to £45.

Just looking for advice on what others do. I've found cheaper insurance elsewhere however this is obviously excluded whereas with his current pet insurance it was a lifetime policy so would be covered for any future fatty lumps that may appear!

With his current policy, we had to pay 20% per condition so after his op we still had to pay around £500 - a lot less than the £2355 I guess.

What would others do in this situation?

Thanks x

Stick with your current policy. He's not very old and will get more fatty lumps, and if they are in tricky places they will need removing.

I would stick the current policy.

That said even after treatment do not forget about regular checkups! If you are looking for the fairest prices highly recommend checking out vetnear.co.uk
