We had our 3 year old German Shepherd bitch insured with vet fees covered up to £3000 per illness. We thought that would be sufficient until she had liver cancer. Two operations test results and a year of chemo we have gone through the £3000 insurance and are £1500 in to our own money. We made the decision to take her off chemo after 12 months as we could no longer afford it. It was £110 per injection and £35 for 8 tablets and £35 for steroids.
