American Pet Insurance Company filed a form update in South Dakota for its Trupanion pet health insurance program, effective May 1, 2026, for both new and renewal business.

The filing introduces a South Dakota Amendatory Endorsement that modifies existing policy terms. The endorsement includes a provision allowing the insurer to appear remotely and electronically in the event of legal proceedings related to the policy.

The change is administrative in nature and applies to Trupanion pet health coverage issued in the state.
