Things You'll Need:

Step 1
How old is your dog? Does she have any chronic health conditions? A younger dog is less likely to need veterinary care, but dog insurance for an older pet with a spotty medical history will cost you more.
-
Step 2
Where do you live, and what kind of activities does your family undertake? Is your dog likely to be exposed to unusual dangers? If so, dog insurance may be something that you need.
-
Step 3
Is your dog accident-prone? Does he chase cars or have a tendency to wander off? Dogs with these types of habits may be more likely to be injured.
-
Step 4
Is your dog spayed or neutered? If not, consider doing so! It will likely help your dog insurance premiums and is better for the health of your dog.
-
Step 5
Consider your finances. If you don't think your dog is likely to get a serious illness in the near future, perhaps you don't need dog insurance right now. But, if your dog were to have medical emergency, would you be able to cover the cost?
