As a safety precaution, I am beginning to consider pet insurance for my one-year-old Aussiedoodle. He is had a few check-ups with the veterinarian for health and puppy immunizations. I have phoned twice for advise after he vomited and had bloody poop which was ruled out as an ill food, should I enroll him in insurance, will that be considered a preexisting condition?

Indeed. Anything that is listed in his medical records is considered a pre-existing condition and will probably not be covered in the future. And most GI issues would certainly fall under that as well. After you have completed a waiting time for continuing coverage with them, certain providers might cover a cured disease. One is the ASPCA, and the other is Lemonade varies by state. Accept and, I think, fetch as well. Understand that being cured during the waiting period entails having no symptoms and no treatment. After 365 days of continuous coverage, AKC claims that they will continue to cover even if the ailment is not cured. Since this is still relatively new, not many people have truly shared their experiences. However, they are making the offer.

Yes, in order to ensure that everything is covered for the duration of their lives, it is usually recommended to purchase pet insurance as soon as possible. Since that 50% of dogs over 10 have cancer, insurance would still cover new symptoms, which is always something to think about. In addition to epilepsy, joint problems are fairly common in Australians. Doodles often have musculoskeletal and cardiac issues. See what coverage there might be on other subjects and always get a quote.

The insurance provider you choose for your dog will take into account everything that has been in his records. You can inquire about the likelihood of this being considered a pre-existing condition by giving the insurance provider you believe will offer you the best coverage a call.
