Another sister hospital shoutout to our Roseville, CA team at Atlantic Street Pet Emergency Center!
Tubby the French Bulldog puppy had an unfortunate accident that resulted in bilateral humorous fractures (both of his front legs!) After his orthopedic surgery, he has been seeing his favorite veterinary team for frequent splint changes which also means fun vet wrap art! Kudos to Atlantic Street for fixing up this pup and creating this awesome Monsters, Inc. piece! #vetwrap #bandageart

Zuma found her forever home as a young puppy. Soon after meeting her new humans she needed to visit her veterinarian, Crossroads Animal Hospital in New Hampshire, quite often to receive all of her puppy vaccines, boosters, and get spayed. Zuma's family did in depth research before getting their first dog and purchased Embrace pet insurance before picking Zuma up on adoption day.
"It costs us less a year to have the insurance plan than it would be to pay for her visits out of pocket," one of Zuma's moms tells us.
Zuma also developed some GI symptoms that lasted several months. She was treated by her primary care doctor as well as visiting Bulger for an Internal Medicine consult.
Zuma's family says the wellness plan add-on that Embrace offers was instrumental in allowing them to attend multiple training classes with her since the wellness plan covers all the costs of those sessions.
Today, Zuma is a happy and very healthy 5-year-old Labrador who still uses Embrace to this day! #PetInsuranceTails
