A new name in pet insurance

FOLLOWING ITS acquisition in April 2007, PetPartners plc - providers of pet healthcare insurance to the Kennel Club - officially became Agria Pet Insurance Limited on 15th January 2009.

In its role as exclusive provider of pet health insurance services to the Kennel Club, Agria’s pet and breeder insurance product development has benefited from sharing the Kennel Club’s special understanding of the pet owning and dog breeding communities.

New Agria Pet Insurance Managing Director, Jonas Derninger, said: ‘It is an exciting time to take the reins of the company, which has already and continues to introduce some truly innovative customer-focused product developments through working with the Kennel Club. The launch of the new Kennel Club Breeder Plan was the result of listening to what breeders wanted from an insurance policy, which can be tailored to their individual needs, and includes fertility and pregnancy cover.’

Agria confirmed its commitment to the UK canine community earlier this year by announcing that it would become the new official supporter of the national and international Junior Handling competitions.

The International Junior Handling Final will take place at Crufts 2009 in March, bringing together over 30 young, aspiring dog enthusiasts from around the globe to compete for the ultimate title.
