How the Vizsla compares with other breeds

What drives the price for a Vizsla

Insurers price breeds by how often, and how expensively, they claim. For the Vizsla, the common health issues are:

• Hip dysplasia is documented in the breed.
• Epilepsy occurs at a higher rate than in many breeds.
• Hypothyroidism and sebaceous adenitis (an inflammatory skin disease) are also seen.

Any of these that appears in your dog's records before you enroll can be excluded as a pre-existing condition, which is the strongest reason to insure a Vizsla young. More on the trade-offs in Is pet insurance worth it?

Is it worth it?

A single $4,000 vet bill equals about 6.1 years of average Vizsla premiums. Commonly cited ranges are $3,000-$7,000 for orthopedic surgery and $5,000-$15,000 for cancer treatment. If one of those would be hard to pay out of pocket, insurance (or a dedicated emergency fund you won't touch) is the safer plan.
