Why Pet Insurance for Your Dachshund
As a pure breed, Dachshunds are more susceptible to genetic health issues than mixed breed dogs. Whether you just brought home a young Dachshund puppy or have a full-grown adult, each segment in your Dachshund's life brings about new health risks.
Providing your dog with the medical help they need for typical Dachshund health issues should never be a financial decision. Our dog insurance provides coverage for accidents & illnesses while allowing you to build a dog insurance policy that fits your budget and the needs of your Dachshund.
Most of our customers pay $32 to $8 per month to insure their Dachshund. You may spend more or less depending on where you live and what deductible you choose.
With our pet insurance plan, your Dachshund can visit any vet in the country, including emergency clinics & specialists. Your policy will reimburse you for diagnostics, surgery, and hospitalization, as well as alternative and homeopathic therapies.
We also offer the most flexible routine care plan in the industry with Embrace Wellness Rewards†. Wellness Rewards can be purchased in addition to any Embrace insurance plan and covers routine visits, vaccinations, grooming, training, and more for your Dachshund pup.

Pet Insurance Comparison for Dachshunds
Deciding on the right pet insurance company from the start is extremely important for you and your Dachshund. If you choose the wrong plan and go to make a claim, you could find your Dachshund's illness isn't covered. You're left paying the entire bill and that illness would be excluded moving to a new insurance company.
Embrace's strongest points of pet insurance comparisons include our flexibility and comprehensive coverage. Other companies have full or partial limitations on genetic and hereditary illnesses, leaving some Dachshund health issues without coverage. Embrace has none.
The ability to personalize your pet insurance plan means you get the best coverage possible while for your Dachshund while maintaining a payment within your budget (other companies charge extra for items like hip dysplasia or cancer coverage, or only offer routine care with their more expensive plans).
