Product Information Resources

The following is a list of references, helpful product information, and links to animal health-related websites in order to provide applicants to The Pet Fund a comprehensive and accessible resource for enhancing their animals’ health and well being. 

While The Pet Fund makes no guarantees, expressed or implied, about the use of any product or preventative health measure listed below, we hope that applicants for funding, veterinarians, and our corporate partners will find this resource for information helpful and choose responsibly among the options for developing good preventative care practices for companion animals. This information does not substitute for professional veterinary care.

Part of good preventative care practice for pets includes speaking with your veterinarian about recommended diet and pet care products to determine what is right for your pets.

Prepare for the Future
  • Quick Care Pet Insurance Programs - You can't predict the future of your pet's health, but you can prepare for it. Accident and illness coverage for your dog or cat. Financial protection for you. 

    QuickCare Pet Insurance Programs eliminate the financial stress of providing unexpected medical attention.

    Pet insurance is a critical resource for all pet owners. Since all companion animals need a lifetime of well-pet services and medical care, planning ahead for veterinary expenses is the best and most cost-effective plan for ensuring your pets' access to needed care. Pet insurance is an essential means of protecting your pets' health and well-being as well as your financial future.

  • ThePetCheckup - Now there is something you can do right in your own home to help your dog or cat live a longer and healthier life! Used in addition to routine veterinary care, ThePetCheckup helps you know when your dog or cat needs medical attention—even before symptoms appear. ThePetCheckup specially packages the same urinalysis test materials that are commonly used in veterinary clinics so that you can now take a more active role in your animal's health care. Good health is the goal—but if the health screen does indicate a potential problem, you will be able to get help for your pet at an early stage—when treatment is generally less painful, less expensive, and more effective.

    ThePetCheckup can indicate imbalances that lead to many of the most common illnesses that affect your animal including: kidney infection, kidney disease, urinary tract infections, bacterial infections, diabetes, bladder infections, autoimmune diseases, and hepatitis and other liver conditions. ThePetCheckup is not a substitute for veterinary care, nor is it intended for use as an alternative to veterinary diagnosis—it is a convenient tool which assists pet owners in early detection of possible warning signs for a variety of common illnesses. Only a veterinarian can make an accurate medical diagnosis.

    Give your pet, your veterinarian, and yourself the advantage of early detection. ThePetCheckup—the early detection, at-home health screen for dogs and cats: 1-800-833-8528
