Cavalier King Charles Spaniel pet insurance

Why insurance matters here

Cavaliers carry a very high breed-linked rate of mitral valve disease. They also face costly neurological exposure. MVD management runs $2,000 to $7,000 over time, and syringomyelia adds $3,000 to $10,000 for imaging and care. A heart murmur is often charted young, and once it is, that $2,000-to-$7,000 cardiac spend is no longer insurable.
