Christmas is one of the most popular times to adopt a puppy and now dog owners can get insurance to protect their shoes from their pooches
With Christmas fast approaching and many people breaking up from work for the holidays, the festive season has traditionally been seen as one of the most popular times to adopt a puppy. Indeed, searches for the term ‘buy a puppy’ are at their highest during the month of December
But whilst owning a dog is a fun and rewarding part of life, many owners often underestimate the teething problems that can accompany puppy adoption. If there’s one thing experienced puppy parents know it’s that the first year of ownership can sometimes feel like your cute little bundle of joy is more velociraptor than pampered pooch – everything is a target.
From those trendy trainers that dropped last month to the expensive pair of Christian Louboutins. It’s fair game (but that’s why we love them!). That’s why Napo, the UK’s suuuper comprehensive pet insurer has launched ShoeChew Cover – the world’s first pet insurance policy to cover footwear damaged by teething puppies.
Offering comprehensive cover as standard, the pet insurer that proclaims to “not do basic” has gone one step further by understanding the needs of pet parents with ‘ShoeChew Cover’ – a unique and innovative 6-star service for their VIPs (very important pets, obviously). Available to all new Napo customers that take out an insurance policy on their new furry friend between December 25th 2024 and January 31st 2025, policyholders will be covered up to £100 to go towards replacing footwear damaged by their four-legged friends.
Those looking to receive compensation need only send their mutilated footwear – with an accompanying picture of their good doggo – to Napo whose team will use their unrivalled experience of working with some of the cutest and most destructive mutts to assess the damage.
Ludovic Lacay, Co-Founder at Napo Pet Insurance, said: “We love your pets as much as you do and will stop at absolutely nothing to be the best pet insurer in the biz. Buy us for the puppy-shoe cover, but stay for the suuuper comprehensive dental and vet fee cover – and obviously, our 6-star customer-love team.”
Award-winning dog trainer and dog behaviourist expert, Rachel Rodgers, said: “For puppies, chewing is natural especially during their first few months on this Earth. You can try and hide your shoes, but all dogs are smarter than you think, so if the worst happens, relax, let them eat the shoes and leave it up to us to cover it.”
Napo is a relatively new but super-caring and modern pet insurer in the UK. They want millions to be responsible and fulfilled pet parents and since its creation in 2021 has been awarded best insurer in the UK for their super-comprehensive pet insurance. They also partnered with Rachel Rodgers, the best behaviourist in the UK and organise scent-training events to help thousands of Brits build a stronger bond with their dogs.
