Know Before You Contact Them
VCAS has removed Brown Dog Foundation from its main Pet Assistance page, but the separate Domestic, Housing & Financial Issues page still lists Brown Dog as a nationwide resource. Brown Dog closed November 1, 2025. Paws 4 A Cure applications are also paused as of our review. Skip those as immediate funding options and check each program’s current requirements.
