Breed-Specific Restrictions: Know Before You Enroll

Attention all pet owners! It's crucial to be aware that some insurance providers may enforce breed-specific exclusions. These restrictions are based on the pet's breed, behavior, and lifestyle. It's imperative to check the excluded breeds list provided by the insurer to determine if your furry friend is eligible for coverage.
