APPLY FOR ASSISTANCE

Frankie’s Friends provides financial assistance grants to family owned pets in need of lifesaving emergency or specialty veterinary care whose caregivers cannot afford the full cost of treatment.

Our programs are designed to help with the treatment of emergency and specialty medical conditions where the pet would otherwise suffer, be euthanized, or relinquished without proper veterinary care.

Applications for assistance will be considered if: 

  • Your pet needs emergency or specialty veterinary care

  • Your pet has already been seen by a licensed veterinarian

  • The veterinarian has determined your pet has a good prognosis with treatment

  • You can show documentation of financial need

  • And the treatment plan has not yet been paid as we do not reimburse for any payments already made


If your pet is being treated at a Banfield Pet Hospital, BluePearl Pet Hospital, VCA Animal Hospital, Veterinary Emergency Group location, or Planned Pethood in Wheatridge, CO, please inquire with their staff for assistance instead as they have their own financial assistance programs for clients in need.


For pets facing life-threatening emergencies or in need of life-enhancing specialty care their owners cannot afford.
