Eve the Pawsitively Adorable Poodle: A Tail of Unconditional Love and Wagging Tails 🐾

Hello, I am Trinity Tan and my furkid is Eve Tan! I’m 22 this year currently still in uni and have always wanted a pup since young but never got the chance to since I have very busy parents. 2.5 years ago my boyfriend and I (along with his sister) together decided that we should get a pup and that’s when Eve came into our lives <3. A little more about Eve, she’s turning 3 on 14 December 2023. A bundle of joy she has never given us much trouble even in her puppy days, overall a really really sweet baby. One that’s always bullied by others but she still loves to play with them.

Q: Why did you decide to get insurance for your furkid? 

We decided to get insurance for 2 reasons. 1 is that my boyfriend’s dad LOVES eve and wants her to be covered for an ease of heart. 2 is that we also did find out that she might have a few hereditary problems. One being a carrier of some disease that wouldn’t affect her but her kids, they tested an mentioned if she has babies, they have a high chance of being blind? Or turning blind as they age. The other was that her sister and brother both have very bad hips dysplasia and thankfully for eve it hasn’t been diagnosed and she’s fine but we again are afraid that it might affect her in future years. Hence, gotten the insurance.

Q: In your opinion, what are the main advantages of having pet insurance as opposed to paying for veterinary expenses out of pocket?

We believe, as a family, that having this insurance is really for the ease of mind. Definitely, we hope that we might never need to use this insurance but we just want the best for Eve and not deprive her from any medical treatments in future if she needs any just because maybe it’s too costly and we can’t help.

Q: How did you get to know about AON Happy Tails insurance?

We got to know through word of mouth. My boyfriend’s dad introduced it to us.

Q: What would you say is unique about AON Happy Tails

To be very honest, I’m not very sure. But personally, i think the application was really easy and fast since everything is done online.

Q: Are there any specific health conditions or breed-related concerns that you are looking to be covered?

Hips dysplasia definitely, we can never be too sure if her body may or may not deteriorate more as she age because of this hereditary issue.

Q: Can you describe any specific incidents or experiences that made you realize the importance of having pet insurance? 

I think it made us truly worried when we heard her sister needs surgery for both her hips and one side would cost $10,000. This charges are excluding medication, hospitalisation and many other costs. These are costs that as a very average family household cannot handle it would definitely take a toll on the whole family and its worse that her sister can no longer be covered? Because it has already been diagnosed.

Q: Do you think it is important for pet owners to get pet insurance? Why?

I think it’s important to get insurance for our furkids. It’s a case of you never know when, how, why or if it might happen. It’s the same idea as parents buying insurance for their new born, to me Eve our my baby she’s just one of us not just a pup. So why have the difference kind of idea. 

Plus we have had friends with healthy pups suddenly having knee problems and needing to go for surgery. These are common cases and costs that if we can avoid why not. 

Q: How would having pet insurance impact your decision-making when it comes to seeking veterinary care for your furkid?

It would definitely help a lot in terms of being prepared if any bad news were to come our way. No one wants to add the worry of finances on top of a bad situation already.

Q: What advice would you give to someone who is considering purchasing pet insurance for their pet?

If you’re still considering it, it’s most likely that you’ll appreciate the ease of mind it gives you afterwards. If not, realistically weigh out the pros and cons. The cost of the insurance monthly/yearly and the cost of the actual vet prices that you might incur be it now or in future to help you decide if its worth the money and worry.

Planning ahead is crucial to secure your furry friend’s future and ensure a stress-free tomorrow. If you have any questions or topics to discuss, contact us now. Together, let’s create more happy and exciting experiences with your beloved pet!

The Paws Behind the Story: Mie and Her Dynamic Dachshund Sisters

Hi! My name is Mie, and one of my favorite animals is the doggy. Since many years, I have had a strong desire for a dog.

I eventually got my first tiny cute black and tan dachshund named Piko about two and a half years ago. We welcomed our second furkid, Pie, the blue and tan dachshund, four months later since one wasn’t enough.

Q: What motivated you to get pet insurance and why Aon Happy Tails? 

Pet insurance can provide us with peace of mind, superior care, and the ability to plan for unexpected health difficulties. Dachshunds, on the other hand, are prone to IVDD difficulties and appear frail and vulnerable. Another reason for us to get pet insurance is the high expense of pet medical care in Singapore. We want to offer our Piko and Pie the finest care possible without having to worry about the cost of expensive medical procedures, surgery, or hospitalization, if necessary.

What I chose Aon Happy Tails? The explanation is simple: the price is reasonable depending on the package you choose and the coverage is superior when compared to other players.

Q: Can you share your journey/experience with Aon thus far?

I have been using Aon Happy Tails since Piko and Pie were 6 months old. The application was straightforward, simple, and uncomplicated. In addition, the annual renewal is on a GIRO basis. My furkids are still young and do not require surgery or other treatments like the elderly dog. So, insuring my furkids with pet insurance will save me money in the long run because health problems may arise only when they are quite old.

Q: Do you agree that having pet insurance has provided you with peace of mind regarding your pet’s health and well-being? 

Definitely agree. If something were to happen to my furkids, I would be able to offer them with the greatest and most urgent medical care in good pet hospital.

Q:  How important do you think pet insurance is for pet owners, and why?

It is very important. My furkids are a crucial part of my family. Singapore has extraordinarily high veterinary treatment costs. Pet insurance covers a portion of the medical costs, which means that I am financially prepared; I don’t have to worry about money, and I can provide quality care to my furkids right away without financial constraints.

Q: What advice would you give to someone who is considering purchasing pet insurance for their pet?

My advice is to get pet insurance for your furbabies as young as possible, especially if they have no pre-existing medical conditions. If you wait until there is a problem with your furkids, you will have to pay a premium if you opt to buy at that time. There are numerous insurance packages available, depending on your level of confidence in managing your own finances. So, choose the best pet insurance for your needs. And my thought is if a dollar a day can provide me peace of mind while also protecting my furkids, it’s a genuine WIN-WIN situation for us. 

And there you have it, our tale of furry friendship, responsible pet parenting, and the valuable role that pet insurance plays in ensuring our beloved companions receive the care they deserve. Piko and Pie have not only enriched our lives with their unique personalities but have also highlighted the importance of being prepared for any unexpected twists on their health journey.

So, if you’re considering safeguarding your furkid’s future, remember, that a little planning today can pave the way for a worry-free tomorrow.
