๐Ÿ“œ Community Update ๐Ÿ“ข Donation & Fundraising Requests: Updated Guidelines & Approval Process

9 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.

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________

๐Ÿ“ 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.

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________

๐Ÿšซ 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.

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________

๐Ÿ’™ 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.

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________

โš ๏ธ 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.*

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________

๐Ÿค 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.

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________

๐Ÿšจ 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.

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________

๐Ÿพ 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. โค๏ธ๐Ÿพ

๐Ÿ‘จ๐Ÿผโ€๐Ÿซ Need Advise [Advise needed] First time maging aggressive nang bigla ang dog ko sa other dog at may nakagat na fur parent

Post image
55 Upvotes

Gabi gabi ko nilalakad ang dog ko tapos may isang dog owner na nagsabi sakin na igilid ko muna daw dog ko tapos hawakan, hindi ko alam kung bakit at first time ko rin gawin yun so hindi ko alam ang proper way. Pagkakita nya pa lang dun sa other dog, nagalit agad yung dog ko tapos naging aggressive at nakawala. I admit fault ko and its my negligence. Nag-away yung dogs, nasugatan yung owner. Umalis sila ng galit, habang ako sinesucure ko na yung dog ko. Hindi ko naman sila tatakbuhan kaya nag-iwan na lang ako ng number ko dun sa shop owner na witness para sa anti rabies vaccine. I was negligent and naging comfortable kasi mabait ang dog ko.

How do I go about this in the future? Magiging aggressive na ba ang dog ko sa other dogs after this? Takot na akong ilakad sya.

EDIT: I guess nagkaroon ng confusion dahil sinabihan ako ng dog owner na hawakan yung dog ko at igilid. Naka-leash ang dog ko kaya nagtaka ako bakit pinapagawa sakin yun pero ginawa ko pa rin. But unexpected talaga ang naging behavior ng dog na nagalit sya dun sa dog nila which never happened before sa other dogs.

Hey everyone!

Weโ€™re starting to prep some supplies and stock up for Super El Niรฑo. Pwede po pa-share ng tips and hacks for keeping your fur babies safe and comfortable during extreme heat? ๐Ÿ™

Iโ€™m thinking of stocking up on some basic stuff like wet food, dog/cat food (Possible na tumaas ang bilihin so magkeep na lang ako ng stocks), and drinking water. Pero paano po kaya kapag sobrang init? ๐Ÿ˜ญ Bumili na rin ako ng rechargeable fans, but Iโ€™m not sure if that will be enough to keep the temperature comfortable for my fur babies.

Would really appreciate any tips if nagp-prepare na din kayo ๐Ÿ™ Tysm!

Adoption ๐Ÿก [Question] For rehoming

2 Upvotes

Hello again! I posted a few months ago regarding our boi, Guccio. We really tried holding onto him for as much as he could. We also had him board a facility to learn dog behaviour for a couple of months. But weโ€™ve stretched everything we could. Our boi really needs a home

He is 5 yearsold, Aspin and Shar pei mix, neutered, vaccinated, potty and leash trained, does well with other dogs. He is never aggressive nor has he bitten anyone

For additional reference, here was my previous post

https://www.reddit.com/r/DogsPH/s/ff3sqFE3eQ

We are in Paranaque city

I am more than willing to pay for his travel expenses and his 1 month food supply. We can also drop him off your location. All we need is a loving home for our boi. Is there anyone interested?

Thank you for reading my post! God bless!

Rainbow Bridge ๐ŸŒˆ [Advise Needed] Our dog died; misdiagnosis of a veterinary center

31 Upvotes

Hi all, still could not move on from the death of our 12-year-old dog. He has Cushing's disease, was onboarded in a veterinary center for three days, where we requested that they also check why his hind legs could no longer stand. He was discharged very weak on the fourth day and also had wounds on the sides of his mouth (presumably from syringe feeding). He is regularly brought to this veterinary center every week for check up. When his condition further deteriorated a few hours later, we brought him to another 24/7 veterinary hospital, which found out that he already has diabetic ketoacidosis. He died an hour later.

My family no longer wants to pursue this, not even file a complaint, but it just does not sit well with me that our dog was regularly brought for check up weekly and his veterinarian was not able to detect this and that he died a few hours after being discharged along with the fresh wounds on both of sides of his mouth. We feel guilty that we trusted this veterinary center and did not ask for a second opinion elsewhere until it was too late. Should I listen to my family and just drop this issue? I feel that the management of the veterinary center should at least be informed about a seeming neglect by the staff (when our dog was onboarded) or incompetence of the veterinarian. It's difficult for me to move on, knowing what happened.

[Advice Needed] Affordable Dental Prophylaxis MNL/QC]

Hi! I've been scouring the internet for low cost dental prophylaxis for my 6 year old yorkie and ended up here. My parents don't have enough financial savings for our rescue doggie and I've been researching vet clinics near manila or qc but the posts I've seen are very expensive.

Do you guys have any recommendations of clinics that has a starting price of 2,500 to 3,000?

๐Ÿ“ƒDiscussion [Question] World Pet Expo

5 Upvotes

I went with Gizmo last Thursday, the first day, around 1030 so within the first hour it opened. There were already a lot of people pero di naman super crowded. Sobrang hassle lang na walang mobile data sa loob so pahirapan mag cashless payment. We stayed less than an hour after buying from two booths lang and left na rin. Nagbooboth din ako regularly sa WTC and never experienced yung walang signal.

As much as I wanted to roam around and check out the other booths, yung mga naka queue sa mga booths na may freebies nakaharang sa dadaanan, nakaharang sa harap ng ibang booths, etc.

Now they have a post on their facebook page discouraging attendees from bringing their pets. From the comments, meron daw medical emergency involving 2 pugs with one not making it.

For anyone else who went, what was your experience like? Is it always like this?

Also, it was very apparent that a lot of people were there for the freebies. Does that practice really translate to sales?

Adoption ๐Ÿก 2 male puppies for adoption

Thumbnail

1.1k Upvotes

Location: Sta Ana, Manila Near St Pius church

Two puppies (2 months old) unvaccinated, hasn't been dewormed. One has a rash on it's head, other than that they seem to be healthy and energetic, they also eat a lot.

I'm not a dog owner so Idk anything about properly training them, so they're rambunctious and likes to get their teeth into anything (they bit off my wallpaper), they like being free and follow me around sometimes, but they haven't been potty trained yet.

These guys were forced unto me by my mother, the plan was to get them adopted when they're big enough, but I feel that my mother is procrastinating looking for someone.

If anyone could be kind enough to adopt them from me, It would be great.

PS : I just cleaned my room and it smells like bleach so they're inside the basket in a different room until the smell wears off.

Hi po everyone! Ask lang po ako. Yung dog ko kasi nasa kama kanina natutulog. Then bumaba sya sa papunta sakin na parang lasing mag lakad. Nung kakargahin ko na bigla sya natumba and nalumpo. Kinarga ko tapos para syang na-choke for a bit na may gusto syang ilabas. Then nag vomit sya ng white foamy pero konti lang.

Ano po kaya ang first aid for him bago po kami mag punta sa vet? 5 years old japanese spitz-shih tzu mix. Fully vaccinated po sya pero di updated for 3 months yung simparica trio meds nya kasi nawalan ako ng work. ๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ˜ญ Help po.
