Question Pet Insurance

How many of you have it and for what breed of dog?

My dilemma. I have a 1 year old Yorkie (love this little guy to pieces). A few months back he ate a bug that made him so sick we ended up at the doggie ER almost at midnight. That trip cost $500. But it could have been $1500 if they had kept him over night etc etc.

I'm on a website dedicated to Yorkies and I'm suddenly realizing these little dogs are not the healthiest breed. Fragile, super into everything they shouldn't be. Etc.
They have hearts of a lion, not afraid of much, and so much fun. I wouldn't give him up for anything.

Doggie insurance is about $30 per month with $250 deductible.

Am I being paranoid or cautious??? A minor surgery can be in the thousands.
I need to think this over and sleep on it.

Tia for your help.
