Having quality pet insurance can drastically lower the fees for having a pet. For instance, it can save up to 80% on costly interventions. But not all pets have the same insurance fees. Different dog breeds, for example, have different insurance costs depending on the health risk factors each breed has. On top of the list is the rottweiler with an average monthly cost of $124.
Behind their powerful exterior, rottweilers are very sensitive dogs, and often experience separation anxiety, epilepsy issues, eye problems, and more. On the other hand, the lowest monthly cost is $59 for an Australian shepherd. This loyal and energetic dog breed has a higher risk of hereditary eye problems, epilepsy, and hip dysplasia.
The infographic below lists some of the most popular dog breeds in the U.S. and the approximate insurance cost for them. It also shows the most common health concerns of each dog breed.
