The
Roscoe Fund
has been created to help assist owners
or rescue animals in need of emergency
medical treatment. It is our goal to
help reduce suffering in animals that
might otherwise remain untreated or
euthanized for purely economic reasons.
The
Roscoe Fund
began in 2000, when Paul Hendrickson
donated money in honor of his beloved
poodle, Roscoe, to be used to help other
pets. Since then, many others have
opened their hearts to donate to the
fund in memory of a pet or other loved
one. The fund has helped
hundreds of pets since its
beginning.

This starving Dalmatian was found and brought in by good Samaritans. He weighed just 23# upon arrival and could not stand up. He had to stay hospitalized for over a week due to his condition and treatment. Starving animals can only be fed very small amounts in the beginning to normalize their electrolytes or they can develop what is called "refeeding syndrome" and die.

Stray slowly began to recover.
The smell of food would drive
Stray crazy so the staff stopped
eating pizza or hot meals and
brought cold food for eats....
The PET staff loved stray and
really saved his life. The
Roscoe Fund just helped supply
funds to run additional
electrolytes and chemistry
panels.
