The Rest of the Story

1st Annual Labor Day Benefit Race

Funds for pets who need life-saving medical care.

This fund was created in memory of Rachael Kathryn Johnson Horton (1985-2011) who loved animals dearly all her life, and worked at Gentle Care Animal Hospital in Forest, Virginia.

Rachael Horton with a friend

The Rachael Horton Compassionate Care Fund, started in 2011, provides a funding resource to pay for treatments for pets who suffer from treatable illnesses and may be euthanized.

Rachael's idea was to set aside a few dollars from her own paycheck to pay for life-saving treatments. She loved animals dearly from the time she was very young.

Our goal is Rachael's goal...for no pet to be turned away from getting life-saving treatment because of the inability of their owners to pay.

This fund is being administered by Gentle Care Animal Hospital in Forest, Virginia. Financial aid for treatment can only be applied for by your veterinarian.
