Frequently Asked Questions

How young can a French Bulldog puppy be for pet insurance?

Most policies do not cover pets under eight weeks old. Premiums usually rise as a dog ages.

Can an owner switch insurers to cover a condition?

No. If a condition appears before the switch, the new insurer excludes it. That rule holds even if the owner never filed a claim.

Can an owner upgrade coverage later?

Many insurers let owners downgrade, but upgrading is usually not allowed. Pick your coverage level carefully at enrollment.

What types of pet insurance exist?

NAPHIA lists three: accident and illness, accident only, and wellness. Some accident and illness plans add wellness benefits.

Does a purebred dog cost more to insure than a mixed breed?

Usually, yes. NAPHIA says mixed breeds face fewer inherited conditions.
