HOW TO DONATE
Chihuahua Rescue Queensland is a registered charity with all donations of over $2 being tax deductible.
The majority of our funds are spent on veterinary care for the foster dogs and we spend on average $5000-$10,000 or more per month on veterinary bills alone. The average amount of money spent on each dog in care is approximately $500-$600, with some dogs requiring thousands of dollars in veterinary care in order to save their lives. Our adoption fees will never cover our costs and we rely heavily on donations in order to continue the work that we do. We deeply appreciate all donations we receive and if you can help in any way there are some donation options below.
