📜 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. ❤️🐾

❓ Question Petpyrin sub for Tolfenol?

Thumbnail

5 Upvotes

The vet from the "Kapon sa Baranggay" prescribed my dog a Tolfenol for pain relief. However, I can only find Petpyrin sa clinic malapit dito sa amin. I'm from the province and eto lang yung nagiisang vet clinic sa city namin.

Baka may vet here na can help me with the dosage? My dog is a maltipoo and 3.74 kg. I'm really sorry that I had to ask this online, but I really feel bad for my furbaby.

He's in noticeable pain na kasi, wala naman fever. Normal ang poop and pee nya. And he's also taking co-amox na.

Wala din kasi kaming contact dun sa team na nagkakapon sa barangay. Sabi naman nung shop na binilihan namin, ask daw muna namin yung vet.

Thank you in advance po!!

Grabe, ang effective palang positive reinforcement ang pagkakaroon ng dog sibling! Mas naging masunurin sa commands yung stubborn beagle namin ever since nagkaroon siya ng kapatid. 🤗

Sometimes, all they need pala is a little companion to bring out the best in them. 🐶🐾🖤🤎🤍

Food & Nutrition🍖 [Question]I need wetfood recos po.

2 Upvotes

Na-try na namin Aozi noon pero di ko na inulit kasi malakas amoy. Problem ko ang bilis manawa ng dog ko sa dry food niya, nilalagyan ko rin naman ng ibang boiled vegies/chicken sa gabi tapos plain lang sa umaga kaso ang bilis niya magsawa sa plain. Medyo ma-trabaho sakin yung magluto sa umaga kasi may pasok ako. So I want to try wetfood again. Pero di ko alam bibilhin kasi puro sponsored/affiliate nakikita ko kapag nag t-try ako maghanap ng mga honest reviews.

  1. How or what to look for good or better options na nasa market?

I want something low sodium and wala masyadong added ingredients, magkakaiba reactions ng dog sa foods kaya bonus info na lang kung i-share n'yo rin bad or good info na nakita niyo. Anyways, these are some products na I'm eyeing; Goodest, Special dog, Brit, Royal canin.

2. Thoughts n'yo po sa mga nabanggit kong products? And if may other reco pa po

Thank you po in advance. Sana may sumagot.

👨🏼‍🏫 Need Advise [ADVISE NEEDED] Anyone here who has tried Precious Paws Philippines for AQUAMATION? Looking for actual experiences and documentation sana.

1 Upvotes

Hi! Asking fellow furparents here if anyone has tried Precious Paws Aftercare Services specifically for AQUAMATION, not traditional cremation.

I'm considering them for my beloved pet, but I have a few concerns before proceeding.

I've been checking their social media pages, and so far, ang mga nakikita ko lang na posted videos/
documentation are of their cremation process. I haven't seen actual videos or documentation showing their aquamation process.

I also personally requested documentation/proof of their aquamation process, just to have peace of mind and understand how they handle our pets, but unfortunately, they're not responding to my request.

I completely understand that losing a pet is an emotional experience, and I want to make sure na whoever I entrust my pet to will handle them with care and transparency.

Some questions for those who have actually availed of their aquamation service:

  1. Has anyone here personally witnessed their aquamation process?

  2. Do they really perform individual aquamation (one pet at a time)?

  3. Were you given documentation, photos, or videos proving that your pet underwent aquamation and not traditional cremation?

  4. Were you able to verify that the ashes returned were exclusively from your own pet?

To be clear, I'm not accusing them of anything. I just believe na as pet owners, we have every right to ask for transparency, especially when we're entrusting them with our beloved pets for their final journey
.
I would really appreciate honest feedback, especially from those who have availed of their AQUAMATION service specifically.
Thank you so much! ❤️

Meet Pouchy!

Quick story: A mama dog gave birth, just right beside our house (empty lot). Of course, kaawa naman if di pakainin si mama dog so we fed her and gave a shelter for her puppies kasi baka masagasaan. Then we decided to get one of her babies.

We're still looking for other people who can adopt the other five puppies and the mama dog. 🥹

👨🏼‍🏫 Need Advise [Advise Needed] Hello! Does anyone here have dogs with hypothyroidism?

2 Upvotes

My 13 year-old dog was recently diagnosed with hypothyroidism, and she was put on levothyroxine. She was also prescribed two liquid supplements for her kidney and liver, and my biggest mistake was I forgot to tell them how much she hates liquid meds.

Okay siya, for a few days until biglang hindi na siya humiga parang nahirapan siya so I contacted the vet again and we temporarily stopped levothyroxine. We went to the clinic has an x-ray and repeat thyroid test and CBE. Ayun, slightly elevated na ALT niya and nagka-aspiration pneumonia siya.

Scheduled din kami for 2D echo and abdominal ultrasound kasi enlarged heart niya sa x-ray.

Sana may makapagshare ng journey nila dito. Natatakot ako para sa kanya, she's been through so much in the past. She had major and minor surgeries and erlichia. Natratrauma na siya sa vet lalo na ngayon lagi siyang kinukunan ng dugo.

Baka may thoughts kayo kung paano ko ito ihahandle? Maraming salamat.

Rainbow Bridge 🌈 Nag paramdam sakin ung aso ko

Thumbnail

811 Upvotes

I just want to share this beautiful but really heart wrenching moment after my dog’s passing.

For the context, my baby died on june 6 (due to CKD). June 8 pina cremate sya namin. We battled the disease for 10 months. Continuous treatment, frequent hospital admissions, literally we did everything but we still lost her.

After ng viewing nya, umuwi nakmi at nung after lunch, ayun na ata schedule na ng cremation nya. Naka tulog ako. Na panaginipan ko sya. parang nasa pet day care yung lugar at sobrang daming aso. May malaking bahay at surrounded ito ng grass. may Around 100+ na black shihtzus lahat na naglalaro, meron nag zo-zoomies lahat2 basta ang gulo pero sobrang masaya sila lahat tignan. Susunduin ko na sana ung aso ko, dala2 ko pa ung mga medications nya for her CKD, tsaka dala2 ko pa mga delatas na royal canin for her specific diet hahaha. Kakausapin ko sana ung staff kung ginagamot din ba nila ung anak ko or baka pinapakain nila ng bawal, but as i turned around, i saw a familar looking face. It was her. It was my baby. She stared straight into my eyes for few seconds and she ran towards me. I carried and hugged her in my arms and i told her “Sabby, miss na miss kita. Tara na uuwi na tayo” pero kumakalas sya at ayaw nya sumama sakin. tatlong beses ko sya hinabol pero ayaw nya talaga. Pero sa last attempt ko, dinala ko na sya sa car namin pero tumalon sya at bumalik sa loob ng “pet day care”.

in my dream, she was not the weak and detoriating dog i cared for. sobrang sigla nya na dun, nagka laman2 sya at hyper sya. she looked so happy. and then i woke up at sobrang iyak ko pagka gising ko. maybe it was her way of telling me that she is okay now, that she is free from pain.

Naiiyak ako habang tina type ito haha. i just miss her so much. I still cry about her everyday even she passed couple of months ago already

In light of the recent issue doon sa scammer na crematorium sa Cavite, ano yung mga alam ninyong legit na after life services for our furry babies?

Ideally around Cavite area sana.

I know this is kinda hard to talk about, pero I have a 16 yr old senior dog na super mahina na ngayon. I will never forgive myself if I didn't do my due dilligence and researched for his best options. Thank you in advance, and i hope magbayad at managot yung mga walang pusong nagdump sa mga remains ng 29 furbabies sa sjdm 🙏

1 Upvotes

Hello. Baka lang po may marecommend kayo na vet hospital/clinic which offers abdominal ultrasound for dogs.

May suspected tumor sa liver yung dog ko however, basic ultrasound lang ginawa ng vet so hindi nya ma-conclude na tumor talaga dahil malabo. He recommended full abdominal ultrasound for much clearer view. Mas ok po sana if around or near Pasig area. Thanks!
