What happens when saving a beloved pet’s life comes down to money?

In this bold episode of The Dog Gone Positive Way, I sit down with Adam Spencer, CFRE, founder of Furlanthropy, to confront one of the most uncomfortable conversations in veterinary medicine today: the rising cost of life-saving care and the emotional toll it takes on pet parents and veterinarians. We pull back the curtain on what veterinary teams face when clients can’t afford treatment—and why this reality is breaking hearts on both sides of the exam room.

Adam also challenges the way we think about giving. What if helping animals didn’t have to look like writing a check? From donating stock to using cryptocurrency, Furlanthropy is redefining how generosity works in a modern world—and making critical care possible for families who would otherwise have no options.

This episode is a must-listen for pet lovers, animal advocates, and anyone willing to question the system—and believe compassion can still win.
