DuPage County Animal Care & Control receives many critically injured stray and lost animals throughout the year. Expensive emergency surgery, costly drugs and exams, and long-term rehabilitation are required to help some of these animals.
Without DuPage Animal Friend's Critical Care & Rehabilitation fund, the shelter would be faced with the difficult decision to pay for costly treatment to save one animal, or to humanely euthanize one to save many. |
​Hooch was our very first heartworm-positive dog success story.

Hooch Receives a Second Chance at Life Thanks to Donors of DuPage Animal FriendsWhen this adorable, happy-go-lucky stray arrived at DCACC testing positive for heartworm, staff knew the long, uphill battle this boy was going to face. But we also knew we had to give him a chance. With a loving foster family to see him through his long treatment and recovery, DuPage Animal Friends funded his medical care, and DCACC staff oversaw his progress.
Due to the extensive treatment and care of heartworm positive dogs and the expensive medications , DuPage Animal Friends has stepped up to fund the cost of treating any adoptable heartworm positive dog that might otherwise not receive a second chance at life due to this debilitating and life-threatening parasite. Thank you for your continued live-saving support. |
