Hello and welcome to Gray Hair Pet Care! A warm welcome to both our potential applicants and donors—your participation make this program possible. Whether you are seeking support or interested in providing it, we are truly grateful to have you as part of this effort. 

The Gray Hair Pet Care program helps seniors on fixed incomes get the veterinary care their pets need during urgent or unexpected situations. It’s designed to ease the financial stress that can come with critical care, so seniors can focus on their pets’ health. Offered through the nonprofit organization, Dr. Dennison’s Pet Project, and supported by community donations, the program provides up to 30% off eligible procedures at Plateau Valley Animal Hospital.

Project Qualifications:

• Client must be at least 65 years old

• Must show financial need

• Services must be received at a PVAH facility (either Collbran or Rifle)

• Animal must be a companion pet (cat, dog, horse, etc) with an urgent medical condition

• Offered as funding allows 

The program is funded through donations, so resources are limited and assistance is not guaranteed. At times, the program may pause if funds run out. (We are always grateful for and gladly accept donations in any amount!) Support is provided as a one-time benefit per pet and is intended only for urgent or critical needs such as emergencies, surgeries, or serious illnesses—not for routine, preventative, elective, or long-term care, medications, or non-medical services.
