About Pets In Need

Keeping pets happy, healthy and at home with the people who love them is an important part of our work. To many Rhode Islanders, the cost of quality veterinary care for their beloved pets is out of reach. Elderly, disabled, or disadvantaged pet owners are often left with nowhere to turn when their pet need care. To help ensure that our community’s pets have access to quality veterinary care, and to keep pets with their loving families despite financial difficulty, the Potter League’s Pets In Need (PIN) Veterinary Clinic is here to provide compassionate, high-quality veterinary care to the pets of Rhode Islanders receiving public assistance.

The Potter League Pets In Need Veterinary Clinic is Rhode Island’s only 501(c)3 nonprofit full service veterinary clinic that offers low-cost, high quality medical and surgical services for pets of eligible low-income Rhode Island pet owners. PIN Clinic’s fees for services are substantially lower than veterinary hospitals because donor support the clinic’s mission.
