Financial Aid for Veterinary Care

The fine folks at the Blind Dog Rescue Alliance have put together a wonderful reference list of financial aid for veterinary care. This aid applies to a wide variety of dog owners, rescues and shelters, not just to blind dogs. If you are not in need of financial aid, you might consider making a donation to one of these organizations. Good people fall on hard times, it is a worthy cause to help loving owners keep and care for their pets.
