Bullmastiff That Ate A Spatula Wins Weirdest Pet Insurance Claim Award

A Nationwide pet insurance claim involving a dog that ate a spatula might have been scary at the time, but ended up being an award-winning tale. The owners of the unfortunate pooch were relieved to have an insurance policy to pay for their dog’s care. The Lake Charles, Louisiana bullmastiff won the insurer’s most unusual pet insurance claim of the year award for 2017. This was certainly good news after the poor dog was required to have a foot of his intestines removed in order to save him from the damage done by the spatula he had consumed. The bullmastiff, King, was one of 12 different pets that had their stories considered for Nationwide’s 2017 award.
