How is Love a Golden Funded?
Love a Golden is an all volunteer not-for-profit 501(c) (3) Missouri corporation. Our major expense by far is veterinary fees. Several vets provide substantial discounts to us but we spend a significant amount on medical care for the average foster dog. Some foster Goldens need heartworm treatment, lumps removed, entropoian surgery, or care for another serious condition. The adoption donation is the primary source to pay for these veterinary services. We really need to ask for $ 275 per adoption and gratefully accept any additional amount. This income is supplemented though the sale of items on this web site, and at craft shows and canine events. We also receive financial gifts from generous friends and our “Foster Buddy” (see below) program has been most successful.
