I adopted my female mixed breed in July and signed her up for Figo. All waiting periods have passed except the 6 months for hip dysplasia and ligaments. Two days ago she was chewing on a nylabone and since then I’ve noticed her not wanting to eat normal. I tried to peek inside, I’m worried she’s fractured a tooth or something. I’ve been googling like crazy. I called the vet and have an appointment for her tomorrow. I’m stressed about what this could cost and if Figo will cover it. I’m hoping they will since the waiting period for accidents has passed but does anyone have experience like this?

Oh my goodness, I’m so sorry! To answer your question, Figo covers non-routine dental treatment, trauma to the teeth, and tooth extractions due to an accident. Policies can vary, but I believe Figo will cover this based on the sample policies I have read. Thank goodness you signed her up for insurance!

UPDATE: She fractured her molar! I had to take her to a specialist last week to get it taken care of. Fortunately, they were able to save it, but she had to get a root canal. I didn’t even know dogs could have root canals. I submitted the claim to Figo late last week and it’s already been approved. I was so relieved when I got that notification!
