Ideal Applicant
A family with a dog diagnosed with Wobbler Syndrome or a veterinary provider submitting requests on behalf of such families for specific clinical services (rehab, hydrotherapy, medical devices) with invoices payable to the provider.
Good Fit
- • Request is for direct veterinary care (rehab, hydrotherapy, medical device) for a dog with Wobbler Syndrome.
- • Grant amounts match historical sizes (typically several hundred to around $1,500).
- • Applicant agrees to have payments made directly to the veterinary provider.
- • Clear documentation of diagnosis and treatment plan is provided.
Geography
Observed footprint is mixed: 2023 grants covered multiple U.S. states plus Ontario, but 2024 grants were limited to New York, so geographic reach has varied across years.
Recipient Variety
The foundation funded nine distinct recipients in 2023 and two in 2024, totaling multiple independent beneficiaries across the observed period, with no repeats across years, indicating a moderate diversity of recipients for a micro private foundation.
New Applicants
There is a visible online application form and rolling deadline and past behavior shows many new recipients in 2023 and new recipients again in 2024; filings also say grants are preselected, so signals conflict but the public form plus history support strong plausibility that new applicants can be considered.
