Akita Pet Insurance

The Akita is a working dog that originated in Japan. Though quiet, Akitas have a strong protection instinct and make good guard dogs. The trademark of an Akita is a plush tail that curls up its back.

Why Pet Insurance for Your Akita

As a pure breed, Akitas are more susceptible to genetic health issues than mixed breed dogs. Whether you just brought home a young Akita puppy or have a full-grown adult, each segment in your Akita's life brings about new health risks.

Providing your dog with the medical help they need for typical Akita health issues should never be a financial decision. Our dog insurance provides coverage for accidents & illnesses while allowing you to build a policy that fits your budget and the needs of your Akita. 

Most of our customers pay $37 to $55 per month to insure their Akita. You may spend more or less depending on where you live and what deductible you choose.

With our pet insurance plan, your Akita can visit any vet in the country, including emergency clinics & specialists. Your policy will reimburse you for exam fees, diagnostics, surgery, and hospitalization, even alternative & homeopathic therapies.

We also offer the most flexible routine care plan in the industry with Embrace Wellness Rewards. Wellness Rewards can be purchased in addition to any Embrace insurance plan and covers routine visits, vaccinations, grooming, training, and more for your Akita pup.

Pet Insurance Comparison for Akitas

Deciding on the right pet insurance company from the start is extremely important for you and your Atika. If you choose the wrong plan and go to make a claim, you could find your Akita's illness isn't covered. You're left paying the entire bill and that illness would be excluded moving to a new insurance company.

Embrace's strongest points when you compare pet insurance options include our flexibility and comprehensive coverage. Other companies have full or partial limitations on genetic and hereditary illnesses, leaving some Akita health issues without coverage. Embrace has none.

The ability to personalize your pet insurance plan means you get the best coverage possible for your Akita while maintaining a payment within your budget (other companies charge extra for items like hip dysplasia or cancer coverage, or only offer routine care with their more expensive plans).
