My dog Molly is a beloved family member, and she's also a huge budget-buster. I did not sign up for pet insurance on her when she was young, and she is now 16 with a number of pre-existing conditions, including a repaired mitral valve problem in her heart.Since I don't have pet insurance, I have to pay out of pocket for all of her care. And as she's getting up there in age, in recent years, this was costing quite a bit because she would have neck and joint issues and I was regularly at the vet getting her checked out and buying medications when her issues would flare up.
