Southside Animal Hospital in Corpus Christi says its Hank’s & Eli’s Fund helps cover veterinary needs for military veterans and active-duty service members. The practice’s official page does not publish the discount amount or current eligibility and application rules, so contact the hospital directly to learn whether support is available for your pet.
What Southside Animal Hospital confirms
The clinic’s website identifies Hank’s & Eli’s Fund as a source of financial support for veterinary needs of military veterans and active-duty service members. That establishes a local veteran-focused assistance effort, but it does not confirm the precise discounted-care offer described in the original title or set out its current terms.

The details that remain unconfirmed on the official page include the amount or percentage of assistance, which treatments qualify, whether the fund is currently accepting requests, what proof of service is required, how to apply, and whether appointments or funding are limited. Ask the practice for those specifics before scheduling care or budgeting for a bill.

How to ask about the fund
- Contact Southside Animal Hospital and ask specifically about Hank’s & Eli’s Fund and whether it is available to new applicants now.
- Explain that you are a veteran or active-duty service member, describe the veterinary care your pet needs, and ask whether that service is covered.
- Confirm the amount of support, any owner-paid balance, required service documentation, application steps, and any limits on funding or appointments.
- Ask when a decision will be made and whether you should wait for approval before authorizing treatment.
These questions are important because the practice’s published summary does not specify the fund’s current eligibility rules or process.

What older descriptions do—and do not—establish
A business-directory listing reproduces a customer’s November 2020 description of the fund as assistance for veterans and active-duty members “at little to no charge.” That is a historical customer account, not a current official promise. It should not be used to assume that care today will be free or that the same terms still apply.
Other assistance programs are not confirmed local alternatives
Pets for Patriots describes discounted veterinary care for veterans who adopt through its program. Its assistance is limited to eligible participants in that program, and the available information does not confirm a Corpus Christi partner. It is therefore not evidence of a general local discount or open-ended help with existing veterinary bills.

Another Corpus Christi clinic, Lion of Judah Animal Services, describes Cherry financing on its payment page. Financing is separate from a veteran assistance fund and is not a discount; the information does not establish any connection to Southside Animal Hospital or Hank’s & Eli’s Fund.
