Making the decision to get a pet — especially a dog — is life-changing. They provide unconditional love and support and can be a faithful companion for many years. No matter how much research you do, expect some surprises along the way. Here are three things you’ll quickly learn about being a new dog owner.

  1. A New Dog Can Test Your Patience — Whether it’s waking you up at 3:00 a.m. for a late-night bathroom trip or deciding to use your shoes as a chew toy while you’re away, a dog can really push your buttons. Just remember that proper training can go a long way to living harmoniously with your pup.
  2. Dogs Keep You on Your Toes — When you live with a dog, it can seem like there’s always a surprise around the corner. For example, encountering a skunk during a nightly walk can lead to some new smells in your house and lots of time spent in the bathtub. However, the love you get from your new dog will surely make up for any accidents or surprises.
  3. Dogs Can Be Expensive — General expenses for a dog can run high, but if you need emergency vet care or medication, fees can add up quickly. It’s extremely important to plan ahead and budget appropriately for dog care and ensure that you’re adequately covered by pet insurance.

Hudson’s Bay Financial Services is happy to offer coverage for your dog through Petline Insurance — Canada’s largest pet insurance company. With pet insurance, you can be reimbursed for up to 80% of the cost of veterinary care and services if your pets fall ill or are injured.
