A Mystery Illness Strikes a Young Pup
“We joined Trupanion in July 2013 just in case our puppy got into something.
On November 22, 2013, our 6-month-old Rottweiler vomited, so we took him to the C.A.R.E. Centre Animal Hospital. The doctors weren’t sure what was causing his illness—like if he had ingested something. That evening, we were preparing ourselves for his death. However, because we had Trupanion, and 90% coverage, we were able to treat him aggressively. With the amazing help from multiple veterinarians and the staff at the veterinary hospital and Trupanion, he was made well again.”
