Beginning today, June 19, 2025, Joshua’s House will be putting a hold on intake of medical special needs dogs.  In the past six months, Joshua’s has spent over $40,000 on the health care and rehabilitation of dogs which were relinquished to us with medical special needs.  The treatment for these dogs can be and usually is, very expensive and our finances are now critically low.  As a result, we are unable to pursue this option.  It literally breaks our hearts to do so because this has been our calling for decades!  The bottom line, unfortunately, is that we receive absolutely no discount from the veterinarians and hospitals that we use.  As well, donations have not been what we had hoped.  The management team is evaluating options and as finances improve, we will consider removing this restriction.
