Pet Insurance: Activating Your 2 Months of Complimentary Cover
We provide 2 months of complimentary pet insurance through Knose with every Fairytail Forest puppy — because the early weeks should be about bonding with your new best friend, not worrying about vet bills.
Why Insurance Matters (Especially Early On)
Puppies are curious, clumsy, and still building their immune system. Those first few months come with a statistically higher chance of unexpected vet visits — from eating something they shouldn't have, to minor injuries during playtime, to infections picked up while exploring the world. Insurance means you can say "yes" to the best care without hesitation.
Your Knose Coverage Details
What's Included (Complimentary 2 Months)
- Accident cover
- Illness cover
- Third-party liability (check policy specifics)
- 24/7 vet advice hotline (with some plans)
Coverage level depends on the specific plan we've arranged. Review your policy documents carefully when you receive them.
⚠️ CRITICAL: Activation Deadline
Your Knose policy must be activated by you before, or on, the day you collect your puppy — or it will be voided automatically.
We set up all the details and cover the first two months, but Knose will cancel it if you don't accept. You'll receive communication from Knose on or near collection day — look out for it.
Step-by-Step Activation
-
Watch for Knose communication
You'll receive email(s) from Knose around collection day. Check spam/promotions folders if you don't see it.

This confirms your acceptance of the policy and registers you as the policyholder.
-
Review your coverage details
Take 5 minutes to understand what's covered, any excess amounts, and claim procedures.
-
Save your policy number somewhere accessible
You'll need it for any vet visits or claims during those first two months.

Insurance is a personal choice. We provide it as an option, not a requirement. Make the decision that's right for your family.
Things to Consider When Choosing Long-Term Insurance
If you're comparing providers beyond the complimentary period, here's what experienced Boxer owners look for:
- Breed-specific conditions: Some policies exclude or limit coverage for conditions common in Boxers (heart issues, certain cancers, hip dysplasia). Read the fine print.
- Lifetime vs. annual limits: Lifetime policies cover conditions year-after-year. Annual policies reset each year — which can leave you exposed for chronic conditions.
- Excess amount: Higher excess = lower premiums, but more out-of-pocket per claim. Find the balance that works for your budget.
- Age limits: Some insurers won't cover dogs past a certain age, or premiums jump dramatically. Consider a provider that covers senior dogs.
- Waiting periods: Most policies have waiting periods for illness claims (usually 30 days). Accidents are usually covered immediately.
Our honest take: Insurance is a personal choice, and we respect whatever decision you make. But here's what we know from breeding Boxers for years: the owners who have insurance are invariably grateful for it when they need it, and the ones who don't sometimes wish they had. We suggest reviewing the Knose website, comparing a few options, and making your own informed call. And if you ever want our opinion on specific plans or providers — just ask.
