Puppy Insurance offered by AKC

🐾 Peace of Mind with AKC’s 30-Day Pet Insurance



Bringing home a new Rottweiler puppy is an exciting time, but it also comes with responsibility. Puppies are naturally curious (and sometimes a little mischievous), which means unexpected accidents, tummy troubles, or vet visits can happen. To help new puppy owners start off with peace of mind, the American Kennel Club (AKC) includes a special benefit with puppy registration: 30 days of pet insurance coverage at no additional cost.


What’s Included in the AKC 30-Day Insurance Plan?

  • Coverage for common puppy emergencies: vomiting, diarrhea, allergies, broken bones, toxin ingestion, foreign body ingestion (yes, that sock counts!), and more.
  • Major health care support: surgery, hospitalization, prescription medications, lab tests, and x-rays are eligible under the plan.
  • Vet support when you need it most: access to AKC Pet Insurance’s 24/7 Vet Helpline lets you talk to veterinary experts anytime.
  • Affordable safety net: $250 deductible, 80% reimbursement, and up to $5,000 maximum reimbursement in those first 30 days.


Why This Matters for New Puppy Owners

Those first weeks at home are when puppies are exploring their new world — chewing, climbing, and occasionally finding trouble. Even a minor accident or unexpected illness can lead to costly vet bills. This short-term coverage is designed to:

  • Protect your new puppy during their most vulnerable stage
  • Help you manage unexpected expenses
  • Give you time to explore long-term pet insurance options without rushing


How to Activate Your Puppy’s Coverage

The insurance isn’t automatic — it must be activated within 28 days of your puppy’s AKC registration. Your puppy is registered by Spartan Rottweilers at 6 weeks old. So that means you have TWO weeks. Once registered, you can:

  • Use the AKC registration portal at akc.org/register
  • Call 866-725-2747
  • Or scan the QR code provided with your puppy’s paperwork


Final Thoughts

At Spartan Rottweilers, we’re proud to not only provide healthy, well-bred Rottweilers, but also to support our families with resources like this. Pet insurance isn’t something everyone thinks about when they first bring home a puppy — but it can make all the difference when life throws an unexpected curveball.

Starting off with AKC’s 30-Day Insurance is a smart, simple way to make sure your new best friend has the protection they deserve right from day one.
