Hi there. I have a 12wk old yorkiepoo. Got her about a week ago and our first vet wellness visit will be in a few days. Other than being so small, (1.9lb), she seems healthy. Parents are said to both have been 5lbs at adulthood. Eats, sleeps, plays, repeat. My only pet. What insurance do you recommend for her? Thank you.

As with all insurance, it depends on way too many variables to give you a one-size-fits-all answer. So, we recommend that you do the following before making your final choice:

• Read our
  pet insurance 101 guide
• Review the factors to consider before buying in our handy printable comparison chart
• Get several price quotes from reputable companies

This might be helpful as well but keep in mind it is for Yorkies and not your mixed breed.

Congrats on the puppy! I bet she’s a cutie! One thing to keep in mind for Yorkiepoos is that they are itty-bitty, which often means dental issues. I recommend prioritizing a company with excellent dental coverage. In addition to the resources @Michelle Schenker shared above, I also recommend my article about the best dental insurance. Gum disease can be prevalent in smaller breeds like yours, and it isn’t covered by all providers.

I also suggest establishing a good dental routine for your dog to help prevent costly and painful dental issues for your dog. Your pup is so lucky to have you looking out for her! Let us know if you have any other questions, and enjoy bonding with your puppy!
