    I don't have it either but probably will need it since Frankie has to go to the vet frequently. Any advice would help me too.

    Absolutely! I use VPI. I got it for Cody when he was 4 weeks old. I have the superior plan. It paid for almost the entire huge bill when Cody was dying from cancer. You can't use it with a pre-existing condition. The price goes up yearly based on the dog's age. You have to pay the vet then submit a form. Thankfully I haven't needed it for Logan yet, and pray that I don't. I'm still glad I have it. I think the website is www.vpi.com

    After my experience with Cally (large vet bills after 14 healthy years!) I decided to insure both Tobey and Brody.... hopefully this will mean that they will be the healthiest animals ever and I won't have to make any claims

    I've asked this same question on a number of other pet forums I post on and while VPI seems to be popular and the best choice as far as insurance goes, I've had an overwhelming response that you're just better off opening a savings account and putting money away in it every week or month or so to cover vet expenses instead of paying $40 a month (for me it would be about $40 for two dogs) if you aren't even going to need it. It's just a personal preference though.
