Spreading happiness one dog at a time!

Service Animal Care Fund provides financial assistance to owners of service animals in Door County who require veterinary care during their service.

The fund is managed by Door County Therapy Dog Teams, Inc.

The Service Animal Care Fund supports:

• Non-basic, non-urgent care (ex: cancer treatments, heart disease, eye disease, endocrine disease, etc.)
• Urgent care (ex: diagnostic testing, broken leg, torn ligament, etc.) 
• Emergency care (ex: life-threatening injuries or illness) 

• Note: If a service animal experiences a life-threatening emergency, please seek veterinary care immediately to stabilize the animal. Pre-approval is not required before emergency treatment/medical care. Once the animal has the assessment and is stable, contact the Service Animal Care Fund Coordinator for further assistance.

The Service Animal Care Fund does not support: 

• Therapy dogs, comfort or emotional support animals.
• Basic animal care, including but not limited to spray/neuter surgeries, food or basic pet supplies, deworming, grooming, flea treatment, vaccinations, or routine veterinary care.
• Any bills already paid. There is no reimbursement for procedures already in process (except for emergencies as described).
• Applicants whose animal is ill due to neglect or preventable care.
• Any treatments that will cause harm to the animal or if long-term prognosis is less than 50% survival.
