Important to know:
When insuring your dogs, you need to be aware that the insurance criteria depend on the classification of dogs breed - (small/medium/large breeds/giant). And, accordingly, the premium is charged based on the weight of the pet and the general health condition. In terms of other benefits, one can look at availing of Terminal Illness Cover, Surgery and Hospitalisation Cover, Death Cover, Funeral Cost Cover, etc. However, it’s really important for you to assess and avail of Add Ons like Third Party Liability Cover, Lost and Stolen Cover, Emergency Pet Minding Cover, Veterinary Consultation and Doctor on Call. These can be sought by paying a little extra.
