Who We Are
Lifeline 4 Paws is a program of the Hogan Family Foundation, Inc. www.hoganfoundation.org, a non-profit charitable 501(c)(3) organization. One of several programs operated by the Foundation, Lifeline 4 Paws began a number of years ago, originally as a small breed dog rescue program serving Southern California.

After several years of successful operation, the program redirected its focus in order to help more homeless pets by providing veterinary assistance for abused, neglected, and abandoned dogs. This new focus allows us to realize a much greater impact by supporting other rescue groups with desperately needed, and often life saving medical care.

Today, we provide non-routine medical treatment for sick or injured dogs that other qualified organizations rescue and, later, place in permanent adoptive homes.

The groups we work with must be 501(c)(3) non-profit charitable organizations. They must be well organized and able to follow our process and procedures.

What We Do
Lifeline 4 Paws provides veterinary assistance for most non-routine medical care (non-elective or emergency procedures) for sick or injured dogs in the care and custody of a qualified rescue group in good standing in the state of California. To be eligible, the rescue must be a non-profit 501(c)(3) charitable organization.

Note: Due to the current high volume of cases Lifeline 4 Paws is not accepting applications from any new groups at this time. For a list of other groups providing assistance with veterinary care click here
