To many, a dog is not simply a pet; they are part of the family. Unfortunately, many families must forego critical cancer treatment for their beloved companions simply due to financial constraints. Dogslife gives families in this situation somewhere to turn.

​

Dogslife uses donations to pay for life-saving cancer treatment of selected beneficiaries. These beneficiaries are selected through an application and interview process, which involves the applicant, the dog’s primary veterinarian, and the treating board-certified veterinary oncologist. Dogslife gathers information about the applicant, such as his or her financial situation, as well as about the dog, such as information regarding the cancer diagnosis, treatment recommendation, and quoted cost. All applications received are reviewed and a determination of funding is made. Payments will only be made directly to board certified oncologists for approved treatments if the grant is awarded. We do not reimburse for treatments before the application is approved, including treatment that occurs during the application process. 

​

We could not execute our mission without the generous support of our donors. Your generous support and contribution will go directly to providing treatment to deserving pups and their families. As a private, non-profit 501(c)(3) charity supported almost entirely by donations, all donations are tax-deductible as permissible by law. ​
