Compassion and Hope for
Companion Animals…
The Jake Brady Memorial Fund, a 501(c)(3) Non-Profit Organization, is established
in the life and memory of Jake Brady, an extraordinary Dalmatian
who shared his love for 14 years and 23 days. Sadly, Jake
passed away on February 17, 2006 from a chronic kidney disorder,
one of the three major silent diseases affecting adult Dalmatians.
He is truly missed, and will live forever in our hearts.
