Is border terrier insurance worth it?

It is estimated that half of Britain’s dog population is insured. When vet bills can cost thousands of pounds, many dog owners think border terrier insurance is a good idea. It’s a personal decision, but having insurance means protection for you and your dog.

What does border terrier insurance cover?

Border terrier insurance can cover vet bills if your dog is ill or injured. Insurance can also contribute to the cost of advertising for a lost dog and rewarding the finder. It can also cover situations you might not have considered. These include the cost of your dog being looked after if you need emergency hospital treatment.

Will my postcode affect my border terrier insurance premium?

It certainly will. Urban postcodes generally attract a higher premium than rural postcodes. This is because insurance providers estimate that there are more risks for dogs in cities.

Why are some pet insurers so cheap?

Sometimes you’ll find what looks like a great deal. But providers can charge less for a premium and balance this with a large excess. Make sure you read the small print before you buy. The best way to find a good deal on border terrier insurance is to compare quotes and choose a policy that meets your needs at a competitive price.

Why is my border terrier more expensive to insure than other dogs?

Pedigree dogs can be more expensive to insure as they can be affected by specific health conditions. Border terriers can be prone to skin problems. Insurers will factor this into their calculations. Research has found that policies for some breeds cost significantly more.

What is a ‘bilateral clause’?

Your dog may have a condition or illness that affects a certain part of the body. Some insurers may see this as a pre-existing condition if it occurs again in a different part of the dog’s body.

What is co-insurance?

Co-insurance is when the policyholder and the insurer agree to share the cost of any treatment. It can be helpful if your premium has increased as a result of your dog getting older. Premiums often rise as a dog ages.

Will my border terrier need a microchip?

UK owners have a legal obligation to microchip their dogs. This allows a lost or stolen dog to be identified more easily. If your dog is not microchipped, this may invalidate your insurance.
