Coverage applies only to pets between 8 weeks and 6 years old at the start of the insurance policy. Pets older than 6 years are not eligible for coverage.
Brachycephalic syndrome treatment
Treatments and operations required due to brachycephalic syndrome, such as the operation on a soft palate that is too long.

Some considerations
Cost increases with age
The premium increase is applied when your dog reaches certain age milestones. Specifically, the price adjustment occurs when your dog turns 1, 3, 5, 7, and 9 years of age.
Cancelation policy
Your initial contract lasts for 1 year. After this period, you’re free to cancel your policy at any time. If you move abroad, you have the option to cancel your policy right away, regardless of how long you’ve held the policy.
Lifetime coverage
If you purchased the insurance before your dog's 6th birthday, they will be covered for life. Unfortunately, if your dog is already 6 or older, they are not eligible for this policy.
