Cost for Healthy Dogs Soars

The cost of keeping your dog healthy has risen dramatically in the last 5 years, according to research by the Society of Practicing Veterinary Surgeons.

According to the report, vet's fees have risen by more than 20%* in the last years.

To combat this rise, dog insurance companies are offering discounts when dog insurance policies are purchased online.

Allan Burn, head of Tesco Dog Insurance (who are offering a massive 40% off dog insurance purchased online before 2nd April) says, "Vets fees are becoming more expensive and it is important to know that in the event of an accident or unexpected illness your pet’s medical treatment can be paid for. We are offering a special discount to encourage pet owners to ensure their cat or dog is protected. Pet owners are responsible for ensuring their pets are kept healthy and happy and that includes picking up expensive vets fees if they’ve no insurance."
