Existing pet stores like puppy boutique, pet land in boca park will have to sell animals from shelters or humane societies. They have about two years to comply with the ordinance. Speak of pets and how to keep them safe and the conversation were going have right now so lets send it over to michelle. Michelle were talking about pet insurance. I think a lot of people probably are surprised to know there even is such a thing. So many times i hear people say is it worth it. So we have dr. Christopher. A local veterinarian. You were on our show not too long ago and we talked about this and i said come back and lets discuss this. I have pet insurance for my and for me it did almost come in handy. I had a big problem. It was very expensive. Almost lost the dog. I would have been reimbursed up to 90 percent of the cost but i ended up getting reimburse bid the vet out of state. But it would have saved my you know what had i had to pay all that outofpocket. It is a huge difference having pet insurance. And in the last couple years the model has changed. So its really accidents and illnesses. And if you have the right Insurance Company, theres probably 15 of them out there, theres some better than others for sure. It makes a huge difference. Here . Moxie. Good girl. Why would you say its important to have dogs overruledcovered . I think a lot of people think it might not be worth the cost. I can give you ten examples every week of, i mean, last night i was in surgery till 8 00 toy and a piece of a corn cob. And thats going to be 4,000 by the time theyre through with it. Thats the third time hes done Something Like that. They have pet insurance. And can you afford that . And it makes a big difference. And pet insurance is different than Health Insurance. I mean, its. Michelle how is it different . It is a bond between the pet owner and your pet and your Insurance Company. Were the third party. And if you have a good Insurance Company, truepanion is probably the best one in that with special practices like ours at west flamingo you can actually not have to pay the veterinarian. Your Insurance Company can tell you, you only owe them ten percent and theyll pay the rest. Incredible. Michelle i can speak from emergency with my little lost her. It was terrifying for me. When i was faced with that decision about forking over the money to save her life, the e. R. Vet told me listen i cant do pay everything up in full right now. I wasnt going to let my dog die. So i was grateful that i had it because i know even though i had to come up with the money up front i could get it taken care of later. And thats something that i dont think until you are put in that position. But think about it if you are a dog owner what do you do. And some people dont have that to put that money out there and say im going to be reimbursed later. They need it now. Sometimes they cant even do that you know. So to have that its like a secured bank account for you. So a little per month and if theres a rainy day. And there will be a rainy day i guarantee it. Michelle its actually quite afford al. I pay 55 a month and it brings me a lot of peace knowing if something were to happen my dog would be covered. Typically as your dog gets older just like our Health Insurance you need that michelle thank you so much for coming on. Thank you for being a good girl. Think about it.
