WE ARE A REGISTERED US 501 (c) (3) NON-PROFIT CHARITYDachshund World Charities is a team of caring animal lovers and dachshund owners. We are sensitive to the fact that it takes more than love to save a life, and all animals deserve a chance.
“The secret of architectural excellence is to translate the proportions of a dachshund into bricks, mortar and marble.” |
What We Do
We financially assist, to the best of our ability, sick or injured dachshunds, or their friends, who have a good prognosis for a healthy life, but whose owners are at a financial loss. We will also help you, the owner, if you have fallen on financial hardship and need funds to help with food and general veterinary care for your dachshund.
Our goal is to help make difficult decisions come from your heart, not from your wallet. No one should ever have to choose between medical care, re-homing or euthanasia of their beloved pet. Although we, and many vet-care professionals urge pet owners to have pet health insurance, it is not always an affordable option, especially for those already suffering a financial hardship.
When there is a situation where the pet or found animal has a good chance of being well but the owner or Good Samaritan can't afford it, Dachshund World Charities promises, to the best of our abilities help to cover as much as the cost as we can.
If the owner has gone through their own resources; applied for and denied credit, such as "Care Credit", in the US and PetCard.ca in Canada; DWC asks the recipient to complete a form with their veterinarian to provide us with an estimated cost of the medical care necessary.
Because we also love animals and know how much your pet means to you, we wish we could assist everyone with their bill in full, but it may not always be possible.
We also assist in the rescue and re-homing of dogs in need. We provide transport and fostering of dogs in need. Please contact us for more information on these services or visit our Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/DWReHomeAssistance/
We are limited by funding raised in our Dachshund World Auctions "DWA", our primary revenue stream and donations outside of the auctions and will make every effort to help you if we are unable to. We will do our best to direct you to other available resources. Please view our Funding Guidelines on this website. Please download the Funding Application Agreement and return it to us via email or fax +1 (905) 784-1122. We regret that we cannot help everyone who needs it, but will asses your needs based on priority and who is already on our waiting list for assistance and do our very best to help you with emergency surgery, spay/neuter, dental and other medical veterinary needs.
