Considering pet insurance for my dog

Several months ago my labrador retriever, Cheyenne, had some surgery for large lipomes that were obstructing her movement. One was pressing on her jugular vein. Surgery bills can be high, so I am wondering if you have pet insurance for your pet. Cheyenne will be 11 this July. I'm wondering whether the monthly premiums for the insurance don't cancel out any financial benefit  for medical costs.

Cheyenne wants a cookie

I cannot imagine a day without my dog Cheyenne. There is nothing like the absolute and unconditional love and affection of a dog, and that is why we must love and protect them — they who always look at you with trust, who greet you with enthusiasm, who watch from the window as you drive off to the market, and who are there at the door when you return.

My dog Cheyenne had some surgery

She's fine now, but got sidelined for a few weeks after surgery on a (benign) tumor. Since she had a hard time eating with that big plastic protective cone over her head, I fed her each day with a plastic spoon and eventually, after she rammed through the narrow dog door with the thing on, I had to patch it with duct tape. The fur is growing in very quickly.    :-)
