Getting a new dog or puppy is a very exciting time, with lots to think about from choosing the right diet, starting their training and understanding their needs. It’s also important to consider pet insurance and which policy might be best for you and your pet.

With pet insurance, as part of the cost, your premium will increase each year at renewal as your pet gets older. We’ll limit the amount it goes up by, but your renewal price will also be impacted by:

  • Any claims you make – this could significantly increase your premium
  • Rising vet fees
  • Insurance Premium Tax increasing
  • Changes you make to your policy
  • Changes we make to our pricing

You can, of course, shop around at renewal. Just bear in mind that any existing conditions your pet’s developed, whether diagnosed or not, may not be covered elsewhere.

Top Pet Insurance FAQs:

Is my pet covered for pre-existing conditions?

Pre-existing conditions are not covered. Like most policies from other providers, your Asda Pet Insurance policy will not cover any medical condition or symptoms that your pet had before the start date of your policy or any that occur during the first 14 days of your insurance cover.

How do I claim?

Additional FAQs

How much is pet insurance for a puppy?

Pet insurance for your new puppy will depend on the exact type of cover you decide to invest in. Choose from our Lifetime, 12 Months or Accident Only cover for your puppy and cater your policy to suit yours and your pet’s individual needs. The cost for each policy will vary according to the levels and types you choose, for example our Lifetime cover costs ranges from £2,000 to £10,000 depending on the specifics you choose.

What age can you insure a puppy?

Here at Asda Money, your puppy will be eligible for our dog insurance policies once they are 8 weeks old, similar to what many other insurers offer.

When should I insure my puppy?

Getting your pet insured as early as possible is a sensible move. Our dog insurance policies provide cover and protection for your puppy as soon as they’re 8 weeks old which gives you enough time to get them acclimated to their new home and other important things you may need to take care of.
