Hi, what insurance do you use for your dog?
what would you recommend for a pet gundog (family pet first and foremost, but when old enough will go on shoots 6 - 10 times a year i would guess)
TIA

Re: insurance..... recommendations?
Hi,
I don't insure mine anymore. I did insure my first dog, but when I told the insurance company she came out shooting a handful of times a year they declined to cover her, despite nothing in the policy wording to that effect. Touch wood I've not had any dramas out working the dogs that a spray with the magic purple sheep spray (Trilanco) hasn't sorted.
If you are keen to insure and a member of BASC then they have some membership options / bolt ons to look at. Will you be picking up, or will she be on the peg with you? Unlikely to pick up an injury on the peg.

Pet Plan insured my dog for working. I have been with them since 1984 and have found them to be reliable, probably more expensive than some other companies.
