What is Pet Insurance for Dogs and Cats?
Pet insurance can help protect against serious accident and illness vet bills for our loving pets. Pets can provide physical and mental well-being for us humans. But at times, the cost can be high to own a pet when the vet bills run into thousands. We love our pets, so we wouldn’t want to compromise on the care they may need.
Being ready with a backup, which is pet insurance, can help here. We humans can’t control unfortunate happenings, but pet insurance can help protect your pet and your pocket.
Why We Recommend Pet Insurance in Idaho?
Potatoes
Yes, you read it right. The state’s gem crop is actually toxic to dogs. Potatoes contain solanine, a severely harmful compound for most canines. The consequences can be gastrointestinal distress, weakness, and lethargy, as well as weight gain. So, if your dog enters a potato field by chance, which the state has an abundance of, the risks are going to be very high. Same goes for onions, cherries, green tomatoes, and chives.
