Numbers include every applicant who has applied for assistance. We are not always able to provide assistance to every family who requests help. This happens for many reasons. Sometimes the vet bill doesn’t end up being as costly as expected so the family tells us that they can pay the bill, sometimes the applicant doesn’t complete the entire application process, or sometimes the applicant exceeds our income guidelines. To learn more about our application process, please check out our Application for Assistance Terms of Assistance near the bottom of the application. You may also call and speak with any of our Case Managers about the process at 307.363.1131.
