Medical Care Fund

Every day, sick, injured and homeless pets are rescued by Dallas Pets Alive! They come in all breeds, sizes and colors. But one thing they all have in common is they need us in their corner to fight for them and ensure they will never have to feel pain again.

The Baldwin Family Urgent Medical Care Fund

Every day, sick, injured and homeless pets are rescued by Dallas Pets Alive! They come in all breeds, sizes and colors. But one thing they all have in common is they need us in their corner to fight for them and ensure they will never have to feel pain again.

Most pets that come into our care have medical issues so severe that shelters don’t have the capacity to care for them. More than a ⅓ of the animals DPA helps are considered Major Medical Cases ($1,000 or more in medical expenses).

In 2021 we spent a total of $255,000 on medical treatment for animals from basic vaccinations to heartworm treatment to major surgeries.

In honor of our 10th anniversary in 2022, long-time DPA supporters and advocates, Amy and Peter Baldwin, have stepped forward to launch The Baldwin Family Urgent Medical Care Fund so DPA can say YES to more animals with urgent medical needs.

The goal is to raise $100,000 by the end of the year. Amy and Peter have very generously given a $20,000 match to encourage others to give to this most critical need.

Please help Amy and Peter build this fund for medical emergencies so that no treatable animal will go uncared for because we lack the funds to say “YES!”
