I had my horses hocks fused earlier in the year, as he had developed osteoarthritis in them and injections were no longer working. The results have been fantastic; he's a now a new horse and I'll never have to worry about hock arthritis again. Yay! HOWEVER, my insurance company (Animal Friends) has now put an exclusion on the policy for 'all bone diseases'. Vet thinks this is bonkers because having had arthritis in the hocks doesn't mean he'll develop it anywhere else, and it's unfair there are so many other unrelated bone issues that won't be covered now.
So I'm now looking at changing his insurance to a company that won't put a blanket exclusion over all bone diseases. Is there anyone here who've had arthritis in their horse but found their insurance will still cover other bone related diseases? If so, please share which company it was.
