Massachusetts' beautiful scenery might mask some lesser-known threats to our furry friends. While the summers aren't tropical, heatstroke can still occur, especially for brachycephalic breeds. The warm, humid months also see heartworms, fleas, and ticks thrive. Ticks pose the additional threat of Lyme disease, prevalent throughout the state. This debilitating illness, if left untreated, can lead to chronic health issues.

For social butterflies, parvovirus and kennel cough are always concerns. But the threats go beyond the usual suspects. Coyotes roam throughout the state, even in populated areas, posing a risk to smaller pets. Skunks, carrying rabies and a potent spray, require caution. And even seemingly harmless plants like lilies and foxglove, commonly grown in Massachusetts, can be toxic to pets.

Its diverse coastline and ocean present their own set of hazards. Strong currents, rip tides, and frigid water temperatures can pose dangers for swimming pups. Saltwater ingestion can cause dehydration and electrolyte imbalances, and marine life like jellyfish and stingrays can inflict painful injuries.

With its diverse ecosystems and abundant wildlife, Massachusetts' natural beauty comes with a responsibility for pet owners to ensure their furry friends' well-being.

For any parent who would prefer not to pay thousands in vet bills, pet insurance is a smart financial option. No matter how careful we are with our pets, accidents happen, and illness is largely unpredictable.

An emergency with a few zeroes behind it can lead to tough decisions, and pet insurance can save your pet’s life.

If you’re contemplating pet insurance, you’re in good company. According to Nerd Wallet, the number of pet parents who opted for pet insurance has doubled since 2019.

Oh, and if you’re wondering, pet insurance is likely to pay off faster than you think. More than 50% of Embrace customers submit a claim within their first policy year, based on Embrace’s claims data.

Details vary, so here’s what you can expect: Whether or not you can use pet insurance immediately depends on the type of coverage you have. All policies cover accidents from the start date of the policy. All polices have a 2 week illness waiting period. Most Pet Wellness Plans, on the other hand, aren’t insurance policies and your full benefits are available from day one. Other waiting periods and exclusions vary by state.
