Client Story: Bogey

3/1/2023

0 Comments

Bogey was in need of his annual wellness exam and his vaccines. His human had already spent a significant amount on a surgery he needed and could not afford this additional care.  Thankfully, because of the generosity of our member clinics and donors, Bogey received the care he needed and is home playing like a good dog.

The importance of wellness care, vaccines, and screenings cannot be overstated.  By doing these exams and tests before there is a noticeable issue, health problems can be discovered before they become life threatening and steps can be taken to mitigate the chance of catastrophic issues.   Not only does this care avoid unnecessary pain and suffering for the pet, but it often proves cheaper to address the medical issues before they become bigger!  This allows ACF to use those saved funds to help even more animals.

Have you ever wondered exactly how the Animal Care Foundation works?  Here is your chance!  The logistics, qualifications, and support we offer are described below!
​
The Animal Care Foundation is a 501.c.3 nonprofit that works to ensure that our Minnesotan neighbors who are disabled or elderly can access necessary veterinary care for their family pet even if they cannot afford it.  Our clients must be:
  1. Disabled or over the age of 65, and
  2. Live in our service area (currently Hennepin, Anoka, Dakota, and Washington Counties), and
  3. Demonstrate financial need.

If an applicant qualifies, they are then matched to one of our generous member clinics and can access financial support for any necessary veterinary care their pet needs.  The support offered is:
  1. The member clinic donates $250 of pro bono care. 
  2. The ACF Supplementary Assistance Program has up to $1,000 available for necessary veterinary care.  (The client must pay 10% of each visit)
  3. The ACF Prescription Food Program provides Rx food at a discount.
