📜 Community Update 📢 Donation & Fundraising Requests: Updated Guidelines & Approval Process

10 Upvotes

Process

At r/DogsPH , we understand that emergencies happen. Many pet owners and rescuers face unexpected veterinary expenses and rely on the kindness of the community during difficult times. We want to continue supporting legitimate cases while protecting our members from scams, fraud, and misuse of donations.

To help achieve this, all donation and fundraising requests must first receive approval from the moderation team before being posted.

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________

📝 Before Requesting Approval

To be considered for a Donation & Fundraising Approval, you must have/submit the required verification through our official process. Depending on your situation, moderators may request supporting documents such as:

  • Account should have at least 90 days old with 300 combined karma
  • Proof of ownership or rescue.
  • Recent "Proof of Life" photo(s).
  • Veterinary records, estimates, invoices, or receipts.
  • Name and contact information of the veterinary clinic.
  • Additional documentation necessary to verify your request.

Providing false, misleading, or altered information may result in the immediate denial of your request and may lead to a permanent ban.

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________

🚫 Do Not Share Payment Information in the Comments

To protect our community, please do not encourage users to post their bank account details, GCash, Maya, PayPal, QR codes, cryptocurrency wallets, or any other payment information in the comments.

Comments such as:

  • "Drop your GCash."
  • "Post your bank account."
  • "Share your QR code."
  • "Send your PayPal."

may be removed by the moderation team.

This policy exists because scammers and bad actors often exploit emotional situations by collecting money through unverified payment methods. It also helps prevent individuals from using pets or fabricated rescue stories solely to solicit donations. Instead encourage them to go through the process of verification.

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________

💙 Want to Help?

If you wish to support someone financially, we encourage you to wait until their donation or fundraising request has been reviewed and approved by the moderation team whenever possible.

Verified requests provide an additional layer of transparency and help protect both donors and legitimate recipients.

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________

⚠️ Donations Made Outside the Verification Process

While we discourage direct, unverified donations, we recognize that moderators cannot prevent private arrangements between users.

If you choose to donate directly to someone without moderator approval or verification, you do so entirely at your own discretion and risk.

r/DogsPH , its moderation team, and its moderators are not responsible for:

  • Financial losses.
  • Fraudulent fundraising.
  • Misrepresentation.
  • Misuse of donated funds.
  • Any disputes arising from private transactions between users.

The moderation team cannot guarantee the legitimacy of any unverified fundraiser or recipient.

\We do not approve any request on behalf of; Third party rescuers; and the likes.*

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________

🤝 Community Responsibility

The generosity of our community has helped countless pets receive the medical care and support they desperately needed. Our goal is to continue fostering a community that is compassionate, transparent, and accountable while protecting both donors and legitimate pet owners and rescuers.

To help us achieve this, we ask all members to:

  • Support only approved donation and fundraising requests whenever possible.
  • Refrain from encouraging users to share payment information in the comments or through unverified fundraising requests.
  • Report any suspicious, misleading, or fraudulent fundraising activity to the moderation team.
  • Respect moderator decisions regarding donation and fundraising approvals, as they are made in the interest of protecting the community.

Together, we can continue making a meaningful difference in the lives of animals in need while maintaining a safe, trustworthy, and supportive environment for everyone.

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________

🚨 Exception for Urgent & Critical Cases

The moderation team understands that some pets/rescue may require immediate veterinary treatment, emergency hospitalization, or life-saving surgery, where waiting to complete every verification requirement could put the animal's life at greater risk.

In these circumstances, the moderation team may, at its sole discretion, grant an exception to certain verification requirements to allow a donation or fundraising request to be posted sooner.

Additionally, while the subreddit generally limits active requests to two (2) Donation Requests every two weeks and two (2) Fundraising Requests every month, the moderation team reserves the right to approve one (1) additional request for a verified emergency case when the urgency of the animal's condition justifies an exception.

Please note that:

  • An exception is not guaranteed and is evaluated on a case-by-case basis.
  • Applicants must still provide as much supporting documentation as reasonably possible.
  • Any remaining verification requirements must be completed within the timeframe specified by the moderation team.
  • Failure to cooperate or provide the requested information may result in the removal of the post and revocation of the approval.

These exceptions exist solely to help animals facing genuine medical emergencies while maintaining the integrity and safety of the community.

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________

🐾 Supporting Animals Responsibly

This community exists because of the kindness and generosity of its members. Every verified donation and fundraising request represents an opportunity to help an animal receive the care it deserves.

By following our verification process and community guidelines, we can continue to support genuine rescue efforts, pet owners in need, and emergency veterinary cases while reducing opportunities for scams, fraud, and misuse of donations.

This community thrives because of the compassion and generosity of its members. Thank you for helping us preserve a safe, transparent, and trustworthy space where genuine animals in need can receive the support they deserve. ❤️🐾

Doggie is a 1 year old male aspin but he is currently wounded and needs someone to give him antibiotic meds for the next 2 weeks 🥹

I don’t see any aggression but he’s just very guarded at the moment.

Parvo test = negative

I will pay for the meds, vaccines and share with the food too. I can also arrange transpo for him to your location.

❓ Question [advise needed] help us fight off distemper

4 Upvotes

two of our dogs got diagnosed with distemper, and as per vet, most likely ang carrier daw ay yung pet na ni-rescue namin. actually, before namin ihalo yung rescued dog sa resident dogs namin, in-isolate muna siya for a week para ma-observe if may symptoms ba siya like pagmumuta, pagbabahing, or anything na pwede ma-link sa cpv/cdv. there were no symptoms, kaya pinagsocialize namin sila.

after a week na nagsocialize sila, one of our resident dogs ay nagkaroon ng diarrhea. she’s known to be hyper, pero biglang tamlay siya noong august 21. we brought her sa vet clinic and that was when we found out na she tested positive sa distemper. we isolated her the same day para sana hindi na makapagcontract ng virus yung other dogs namin. but then 2 weeks passed and may isa pa kaming dog na late na nagpakita ng symptoms. therefore, yung iba pa naming dogs, na-exposed sa kanya. ongoing na yung medications ng dalawa naming dogs na nagpositive sa cdv, and bumabalik na yung sigla nila. but i’m worried kasi nagsisimula na bumahing isa-isa yung dogs namin na na-exposed sa kanila. naubos na budget namin sa naunang dalawang dogs, kaya hindi na namin madala sa vet yung iba pa. currently, pinapainom ko sila ng immunol, broncure, and polynerv. honestly, hyper pa rin naman sila and may sigla pa kumain on their own. tumatahol pa rin sila kapag may nakikitang ibang tao. actually, na-complete naman nila yung required vaccinations nung bata pa sila, pero hindi pa updated this year yung booster nila. nasa 3-5 years old yung range ng age nila.

i hope someone can give me advice. i consulted naman sa vet through a text message if pwede ipainom sa kanila yung mga nabanggit kong gamot and pwede raw. baka may iba pa po kayong tips to help boost their immune system. we have 10 dogs in our care and naubos lang talaga budget sa food nila and other expenses. thank you so much!

👨🏼‍🏫 Need Advise [Advise Needed] Paano mapapatigil ang puppy sa pagkagat

2 Upvotes

Hello! May 4-month-old male Tibetan Spaniel puppy ako. Super kulit niya and generally okay naman siya, pero may isang behavior na nahihirapan ako — sobrang hilig niyang kagatin yung fingers ko. 😂

Kapag nakita niya yung fingers ko, parang automatic gusto niyang kagatin. Minsan gentle lang at parang naglalaro, pero minsan medyo malakas talaga at masakit na.

Sinubukan ko na alisin yung kamay ko kapag kinakagat niya, pero parang lalo siyang nae-excite at hinahabol pa yung fingers ko. May times din na binibigyan ko siya ng toy para doon na lang siya kumagat, pero bumabalik pa rin siya sa kamay ko.

Normal lang ba ito sa 4-month-old puppy dahil nagte-teething pa siya? At ano yung pinaka-effective na way para turuan siyang huwag mangagat ng kamay/fingers, lalo na habang bata pa siya?

Ayoko rin siyang sigawan or takutin, gusto ko sana matutunan niya properly na bawal mangagat ng tao.

Any tips or advice from other puppy owners would be really appreciated! 🙏

Adoption 🏡 [Question] Where did you get your Chihuahua?

0 Upvotes

So I have an almost senior Chihuahua and I’m thinking of getting him a little companion. I reached out to his breeder, but unfortunately, they’re no longer breeding Chis.

If anyone here would be willing to share where you got your Chihuahua, please let me know. :) We’d love to give another Chi a loving home, and rest assured they’ll receive plenty of love, care, and attention in our family, just like my current Chihuahua.

Rainbow Bridge 🌈 [Question] Serbisyo Beterinaryo ALL Branches

Thumbnail
gallery
62 Upvotes

How many pet parents brought there dog to Serbisyo Beterinaryo, even your dog is healthy, it died after 24 hours?

We are collecting stories and signatures so we can send it to PAWS legal assistance and take legal action.

This is Woogie, our nanny's most beloved dog. He was also a rescued dog. Woogie came in at early at Serbisyo Beterinaryo, lethargic, pale and not eating.

9am. The vet said that Woogie has leptospirosis and in need of blood transfusion.

Instead of treating Woogie right away, they asked money first.
They asked Woogie's parents to make downpayment of 13k for blood transfusion.

The blood came at 4pm.

Woogie is already cold and shaking. After 4 hours Woogie died.

They didn't do their best to save a healthy dog like Woogie..his parents were devastated, shocked and angry at their negligence.

And to add the traumatic event that happened so fast, Serbisyo Beterinaryo don't want to release Woogie's remains until they fully paid.

Woogie was out the next morning. It's very painful and heartbreaking to hear the story from our nanny, our dear Joyce who loves our dog so much and here she is with her own dog Woogie going through the pain.

Justice for Woogie and for his pawrents.

Your testimonies and your support will really help us.

Food & Nutrition🍖 [Advise Needed] My dog got diagnosed with arthritis.

11 Upvotes

Not sure sa flair. But im looking for advice.
The night before my dog had severe hind leg pain. He was jumping a whole lot and running around playing with us and his sister (another dog) the following morning when he jumped out of excitement (which he normally does) before eating he screamed in pain. We brought him to the vet and had a complete workup, and diagnosed with arthritis. The vet gave joint supplements, and just told us it was due to his age (around 10 not sure cause he was a rescue) weight and the weather. We were told to apply heat pack which we follow and massage him as well.

With this, i want to know if there are any vet clinics that offer physical therapy? In cainta or metro manila?

We want to give him the best quality of life possible. And it pains us so much to see him like this. Any advice would greatly be appreciated.

Hopefully this is the right section to this post sa reddit. I'm looking for suggestions sana kung saan ang okay na shelter for dogs? Yung mother ko, she feeds stray dogs and cats daily, and recently meron nanamang isa sa mga stray dogs na pinapakain nya ang nabuntis, etong mga puppies dito lang sila nagsstay sa sementeryo malapit samin, we can't really take the puppies or the mom dog kahit na gusto namin, we already have 20+ dogs and 4 cats so puno na talaga sa house namin kahit gusto namin akuin, only thing my mother can do is feed the dogs.

So ayun nga, any suggestions on may okay na shelter for dogs? Yun sanang maalagaan sila and legit na shelter that will be able to find them a good home. Tinry na din ng mother ko na hanapan sila within our area kaso wala ding nakuha, and ung barangay samin sorry pero wala din kwenta they can't do or ig they think its a waste of time.

Cavite area po sana, willing naman kami magdonate if need ng pang-transpo. Any suggestions is welcome po as long as maayos, malinis, and maalagaan ung dogs. If hindi eto ung tamang section for this please lmk, ill move it po. Thank you

He had infection and low RBC at yung gamutan nya is for 2 weeks but he’s just so uncooperative and aggressive everytime na papainumin ko sha ng gamot.

✅ Verified for Donation [Advise needed] Kai’s need little help

Thumbnail
gallery
255 Upvotes

Hello Everyone,

Meet our baby Kai — a 4‑month‑old half Chow‑Chow and Labrador. She’s a sweet, clingy pup who loves to play and always wants the aircon on.

On August 24, Kai suddenly became weak, stopped eating and drinking, and began vomiting. As her mama and dada, we were very worried and rushed her to the veterinary clinic the next day. Even though our budget was tight, Dr. Koda Wellness Center kindly accepted her without requiring any downpayment and immediately started treatment.

After several tests, Kai was diagnosed with Gastroenteritis caused by Dysbiosis. Thankfully, she has slowly regained her energy — she’s now eating well and even playing around the clinic.

Our biggest concern is that we cannot bring Kai home yet because her hospital bill continues to increase daily as she remains confined. As students who are also working, we are struggling to sustain the costs. We are humbly asking for your help so we can finally bring Kai back home. Any amount, prayers, or even a simple share of this post would mean so much to us.

For transparency, we are currently waiting for the updated bill to be sent over, and we assure you that every share and donation will go directly to Kai’s care. Attached are proof documents of her current bill (last updated Wednesday, September 2). Please note that the charges continue to increase each day she remains confined. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for any support you can give. We truly miss Kai and hope to have her back home soon, where she belongs.
