Many families come to us needing help with care at a full service veterinarian. Maybe their dog was hit by a car or is showing signs of a serious infection. Maybe their cat snuck out and was attacked by a stray dog. Whatever the reason, their pet needs to see a vet for care that's beyond what we provide, and these families just can't afford the full cost of that care.
Every single day a local family reaches out to us for help with a scenarios like these, and we want to help as many of them as we can. We don't want to have to turn anyone away.
Should they have to surrender their best friend - who provides them with so much unconditional love - so it can get care? We don't think so. Things happen. People fall on hard times. They shouldn't have to give their non-human family member to a shelter or someone else in order to get vet care for it. That's why we exist, and that's what our Pet Aid Fund and our Dignity Fund help us do.

Lavetta and Lane Lavetta came to Neighborhood Pets after Lane had broken through the security gate to try and visit the dog next door, which caused him to tear his canine tooth out. Lavetta was beside herself, unsure how she would afford an emergency vet visit. We were able to give her a voucher to take him to a veterinary partner right away so his tooth could be pulled. We also scheduled Lane to be neutered so he wouldn’t constantly try to escape to see the dog next door. |

Christina and Midnight Christina came to us for help when she noticed that Midnight’s eye had started bulging suddenly. We knew right away that he needed to go to a vet, but Christina was short on money and didn't know how she would pay for it. We referred her to one of our veterinary partners and helped cover the cost of Midnight’s medications. Unfortunately, this sweet, senior guy declined quickly and Christina had to let him go across the rainbow bridge. When she needed help to have Midnight cremated, we referred her to another partner, and she was able to lay Midnight to rest peacefully and in a way that she will always be able to remember him. Assistance is available on a limited basis determinate upon qualifications, and restrictions apply.
