* IT TAKES MONEY TO SAVE LIVES *  

MOGS is a 501c3 tax-exempt organization --
your donations are tax deductible. 

                                                                       


 

 

What Happens to Your Donation?

 

Every donation to MOGS goes directly toward helping dogs in need—and some of those dogs need a lot of help.

The cost to rehabilitate a foster dog can range from a few hundred dollars to several thousand dollars, depending on the dog's condition and medical needs. Even dogs who arrive in relatively good shape typically require basic veterinary care such as deworming, vaccinations, and microchipping.

Others arrive needing much more.

We regularly care for dogs who need heartworm treatment, blood work, urinalysis, medications, antibiotics, treatment for skin conditions, nutritional support, and surgery. And unfortunately, heartworm-positive dogs are something we see far too often.

Veterinary care is only part of the expense. Your donations also help provide:

  •  Food and specialized nutrition
  •  Boarding when foster placement isn't immediately available
  •  Medications and antibiotics
  •  Nutritional supplements for dogs who arrive underweight or severely neglected
  •  Routine and emergency veterinary care
  •  Surgical procedures and rehabilitation
  •  Microchipping, vaccinations, and other preventive care

Every dog has different needs, and every donation helps us meet them.

When you donate to MOGS, you're not just helping pay a veterinary bill. You're helping a dog move from neglect, abandonment, or uncertainty toward safety, healing, and a forever home.

 

Thank you for being part of the MOGS family and helping us continue to save German Shepherds throughout the Midwest.

ANGEL'S FUND  (cruelty, major medical)

  • Dogs in bad condition deserve a second shot as much as any other.
  • Many rescues turn away dogs that need special care.  The financial burden is just too great.
  • We understand and respect that.  We simply choose to help as many as we can.
  • That's what "Angel's Fund" is all about.
  • Angel's Story:  Angel was our first critical care German Shepherd in 2008.  She had 2 major surgeries for a broken hip.  The first surgery failed and she had to have a second major surgery. She eventually became a healthy girl able to run and play with the best of them.
  • We always have surgical cases and other special medical needs dogs!
  • We desperately need your help and financial support.

Help us build Angel's Fund -- and save the next dog in need.

ANY amount is GREATLY appreciated.  Your $5, $10 and $20 donations make a huge difference!

THANK YOU for caring and acting!
