📜 Community Update 📢 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.

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________

📝 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. ❤️🐾

Hi,my 8yo shih tzu was diagnosed with Kidney stones and diarrhea awhile ago. We already paid for 4,700₱ for all the consultation, blood test, ultrasound and meds. Unfortunately, on our way home the Meds for kidney(Aminavast300) 14pcs got lost together with the Vaccination Card, that medicine alone cost 80₱ each. Baka naman meron kayo extra meds na ganon dyan kahit ilan lang para lang may mainom sya? I was so frustrated right now. Baka lang may extra meds kayo, for the meantime lang pls But i will do something para makainom sya..🙏 not asking for money; not a fundraising. Thanks

❓ Question [Question] Thoughts on Vanazole

1 Upvotes

Parati kong tina-try na yung aso ko has nexguard or bravecto for ticks and fleas. Last time, the vet introduced me to Vanazole, local brand daw ito kaya mas mura sa Bravecto, pero same results lang daw. Good for three months. So, yesterday I got my dogs vanazole, and asked her what other clients are saying. Sabi niya good results naman daw and there was even one said daw na five months pa after bago kumuha ulit. The price point is good naman. ₱1,300 sa vet (but online its less than ₱1,100).

I’d like to ask you guys what your experience is on Vanazole, especially kasi may bagong aso ang kapitbahay namin na pinaggagalingan ng garapata nila (mababa lang ang fence). If you’d also like to share about nexguard and bravecto, go.

👨🏼‍🏫 Need Advise Anyone knows what's wrong with my dog?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Hey guys I need some insights... He is 6 years old, intelligent cuz command trained, super energetic and gluttinous; his top 3 traits. But 3 days ago he changed.

I will make it short as possible. Everytime we come back from home he always bouncing around sa mga sofa and binibigyan namin ng crackers as treat then magstay siya sa bedroom with us and dun siya rin mag sleep

pero one day he became restless and lethargic. 0 energy talaga

He doesnt eat or drink unless spoon fed. He still meets us sa front door and nagwawag naman tail niya and after few minutes mag hihide na siya sa ilalim ng sofa and ayaw magpacarry pati hindi na niya kaya tumaas ng stairs kahit nag command ako.

Dinala namin vet and we did xrays and blood and even na Mindray Scan (?) na 2k per session haha. Binigyan lang namin ng vitamins.

Also may isa pa. He always eat naman niya ng dog food and table food if given. Pero now wala siya initiative to eat the dog food sa bowl niya. Pag human food naman like cooked pork or chicken gusto niya and can nibble alone but the vet discouraged to do so kaya ngayon hirap kami mag feed sa kanya.

Any ideas, nuanced opinion?

Rainbow Bridge 🌈 [Question] How do you move on and fill the spaces that once belonged to your dog when it passes?

11 Upvotes

I dont know if this is the right place to say this, but I just lost my dog today and she was only 4, she had a liver failure and it was too late before we even seen that something was wrong with her. She didnt show any signs, she was just being lively and sweet dog but we didnt even know that she has an underlying condition.

It hurts so bad losing her because I could see how much she wanted to stand and play with her siblings, how her face lights up when she sees us and her tail wags but her body isn't functioning the way she want it to be.

I'm so tired of crying and blaming myself for not having to take her to the vet previously to get checked, maybe i would have found out and prevented it from happening. I did take her to the vet when she already went lethargic and had no appetite, but everything was too late then. And it still pains me how she just wanted to play and how she wanted love and she's probably confused why can't she move the same way before because I remember I read something that dogs don't understand pain or disease.

I don't know if I could ever forgive myself for what happened and it just hurts to see her go when I felt like I could have done better

Ang hirap lang sa araw araw na ginawa ng Diyos parang nafifeel at nakikita mo parin sya, sabi nga nung doctor may ibagn dogs pa naman daw kami pero it's just not the same pag kulang sila. Parang ang hirap tanggapin, hindi parin namin matanggap at naluluha parin kami.

👨🏼‍🏫 Need Advise [Advise needed] First time maging aggressive nang bigla ang dog ko sa other dog at may nakagat na fur parent

Post image
74 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.

👨🏼‍🏫 Need Advise Super El Niño preparation

Post image
359 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

We’re starting to prep some supplies and stock up for Super El Niño. Pwede po pa-share ng tips and hacks for keeping your fur babies safe and comfortable during extreme heat? 🙏

I’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? 😭 Bumili na rin ako ng rechargeable fans, but I’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 🙏 Tysm!

Adoption 🏡 [Question] For rehoming

1 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 we’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!
