Why insurance matters here
The Labradoodle is medium risk on our scale. Modeled premiums run $67 to $105 a month over ten metros, median near $79. Doodles aren't immune to the lab's joint history. Hip dysplasia is the costliest common claim, $800 to $10,000 depending on the surgery. The modeled $79 premium is sized for that one bad year, not the easy ones.
