Description

Dogs are part of our families. As Josh Billings said, a dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than he loves himself. They truly provide us with unconditional love. Therefore, when a family learns of their dog's cancer diagnosis, it is nothing short of devastating. While there are often treatment options available that would substantially extend the life of a dog diagnosed with cancer, families are often left to make the impossible determination of the value of their dog's life due to the high cost associated with treatment. At Dogslife, we do not believe that any loving family should have to say goodbye to their loyal companion simply due to the lack of financial resources.

Dogslife fills the financial gap with treatment options and gives families in this situation somewhere to turn. Dogslife raises funds and uses donations to pay for life-saving cancer treatment of selected beneficiaries in the DFW Metroplex. Since 2018, we have provided over $400,000 in financial support to over 60 families in Dallas, Fort Worth and the surrounding North Texas communities.

Through our grant program, Dogslife provides deserving families with the ability to return the unconditional love that their precious pups have shown them. To support more Texas families, we are hosting a fundraiser, Paws for a Cause, a Giving Dinner and Live Auction on Thursday, December 7th at Hotel ZaZa Dallas. Our event will be emceed by Brian Curtis, NBC5 anchor and feature the 2016 Texas State Champion Ringman and live auctioneer, Doug Bradford. We are expecting an attendance of approximately 200, we hope to have a fun and lively event!
