Pet insurance experiences

[Jimbeam3678]

So we are due to pick up our new puppy on Saturday and I have just started looking at the minefield which seems to be pet insurance.

Her parents are both a cross between West highland terrier and a Scottish Terrier. On the insurance quot forms I am putting down cross breed and Scoland Terrier if its listed if not I am putting Scottish Terrier as that seems to be the most prominent trait. Is this right ?

Secondly can anyone recommend a pet insurer where they have had a good experience on payouts with lifetime cover? Not after the cheapest or most expensive, just one that actually pays out

Tesco seems to tick the boxes on cover, price and reviews. Anyone have any first hand experience when claiming with them?

Heard horror stories about Petplan but I guess that might be down to how big they are? Not looked into boughtbymany I’ll have a google.

Any thoughts on my assumptions regarding what breed to be put down?

Sounds like Petplan is the way forward. I guess you can only do so much research and ask for opinions then go with what they direct you to.

Thanks all.
