JT decided to host this fundraiser because of 2 things, his dedication to and love of dogs and special focus of Brown Dog. The Foundation assists pet owners with the cost of life-saving veterinary care for their pets during times of temporary financial despair. His own dog, Dax, injured his leg a few years ago and required an expensive specialty surgery. Luckily, JT carries pet insurance, so their portion of the bill was reduced but he knows that not everyone can afford pet insurance and that these are hard times for all of us, so being able to comfortably afford vet bills when the family pet falls ill or gets injured isn't easy and unfortunately the dogs must be the ones to suffer the most and the family know that they were unable to do anything because they simply didn't have the money. It's a hard situation to deal with and JT wants to do his part to help the Foundation by holding this fundraiser. Being a dog owner myself and knowing how important my dog is to me, I am 100% supportive of JT and the Brown Dog Foundation. What a wonderful thing.
Unable to attend, but still want to help?
