Travel insurance

Hi, I'm looking for help finding a travel insurance company that classifies a dog as a member of the family.
I was with Staysure for the last few years, me and my partner both are over 50, and both have medical conditions, nothing serious. In September this year my dog had to get a disc removed from her back, she was diagnosed 14 days before we were due to fly on a 2 week holiday, we had to cancel the holiday, but Staysure said that my dog was not classed as a member of the family so the insurance wouldn't cover the cancellation. £4000 lost plus the cost of her surgery.
Are there any travel insurance companies out there that cover medical conditions and class a dog as an important member of the family?
Thanks in anticipation

Check out this link
Churchill, Crystalsure, Direct Line, and Worldwide Travel Insurance Services and while most won't cover a pet's death or if it's gone missing, they will allow you to claim for cancellation of a holiday - if your pet is having urgent emergency treatment.
There may be a limit on the amount you can claim.0
