| Orthodogs'
Silver Lining was started by a small group of people who
wanted to find a way to provide some relief for caregivers who were
struggling to help their pets lead a healthy life. Through our personal
experiences, having met via the Yahoo group called 'Orthodogs',
we understood the particular difficulties of providing orthopedic
care. Through the experiences of those close to us, we understood
that companions of service dogs often face unimaginable hardships
in trying to provide healthcare for their amazing canines. Our goal
is to provide access to fundraising resources, and make emergency
funds available for exceptional cases.
OSLF is a nonprofit, all volunteer organization.
Thank you for viewing our site, and we hope you'll consider joining
us in our efforts.

OSLF Supporters
OSLF is able to operate because of the generosity of our supporters. Though we hope to obtain additional funding sources in the future, OSLF does not at this time receive any money through grants or corporate sponsors, so all of our funding comes directly from individual donations from pet lovers around the world. We are very grateful to all of our Supporters for their continuing support.
