Yet I am always surprised when they make the 3 following mistakes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">1. Allowing their pet to gain weight <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Allowing your pet to be overweight increases their chances of getting certain diseases: diabetes, heart disease, urinary issues, tumors, orthopedic problems (such as ACL tears) and arthritis, to name a few.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">It gets worse: obesity decreases your pets\u2019 quality of life and shortens their lifespan.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Studies showed that maintaining a healthy weight can extend dogs\u2019 lives for 2 years! The same concept likely applies to cats.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">2. Giving your pet \u201cfreedom\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Every year, I fix a number of broken bones that could have been totally avoided. If more dogs were on a leash and fewer cats were allowed to go outside in the name of \u201cfreedom\u201d, there would be much fewer broken bones.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Dogs and cats will never win the battle against a moving vehicle. The damage can be extensive, even life-threatening. Not using a leash may also increase the risk of your pet getting into a fight with unfriendly four-legged neighbors or even wildlife.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Use a leash &#8211; save a life (and money).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">3. No pet insurance<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Surprisingly, pet insurance is still a fairly new concept for some pet owners. Pet insurance can help with unforeseen emergencies or surgeries.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Similar to health insurance for humans, it will help offset some of the cost of pet ownership. It may give you much needed assistance in the event of an emergency or costly but necessary surgery.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Now\u2026 not all pet insurance companies are created equal. Some are good, some are really bad\u2026 So do your research to find the company and plan that&#8217;s right for you and your pet.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">On that note, I\u2019ve heard many pet owners say \u201cI\u2019ve paid for pet insurance for years, and I never used it, so I stopped paying for it.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Ironically, we typically have this discussion when they need my surgical services (Murphy\u2019s Law)\u2026 ie when it\u2019s too late!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">With all due respect, this is not the right way to think about pet insurance. Would you ever say \u201cI\u2019ve paid for fire insurance for years, and I never used it, so I stopped paying for it. Man, I wish my house had burned down so I could make my investment work for me!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Of course you\u2019d never say that!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">It\u2019s the same for pet insurance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">It\u2019s not an investment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">When you buy pet insurance, you are buying peace of mind.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">You are buying the certainty that if and when your pet needs surgery or some other treatment, you will be able to help your pet without putting your personal financial situation at risk (one big caveat: as with any insurance, there are exclusions!).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a name=\"_GoBack\"><\/a> <span style=\"color: #000000;\">So consider getting pet insurance, have peace of mind, and hope you never need it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><em>Phil Zeltzman, DVM, DACVS, CVJ, Fear Free Certified<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am very fortunate to work with motivated pet lovers when I perform surgery on their pets.
