Does pet insurance stop at a certain age?

Asked 2 years ago

My 8 year old dog has been insured for the last 2 years - but I'm wondering if the pet insurance gets stopped beyond a certain age? I've heard of premiums being increased but I'm not too sure about it stopping altogether.

If you have had pet insurance on your baby for the last 2 years and he has been fairly healthy then your pet insurance will not stop. The cut off age is usually for owners who may be trying to put an older dog on pet insurance that already has pre-existing health conditions.
