Petline Insurance has announced a collaboration with an animal protection advocate to provide would-be guardians of adopted pets with a specialized pet insurance product.

The Nova Scotia SPCA Pet Health Insurance will be made available to those who adopt a pet through Nova Scotia SPCA. Pet adopters can enjoy an initial eight-week free trial period of insurance coverage before signing up for a full plan.
