I have a 0.01% taste of what you are going through. Our cat is needing medical attention right now and we just added three new critters to the mix of bills to pay, so money is extreamly tight.
What all do you need help with doggy-wise? Is it the vet bills and the food or smaller issues, like supplies? If it is supplies, maybe you could find some 2nd hand stuff? Like somebodies old dog collar or their old dog's chain, an extra leash that is just lying around.
Have you asked your vet if he knows of any jobs available? I just mentioned to my Vet about how I was interested in becoming a Vet and he landed me with a job in bathing and kennels.

Just remember that your dog's don't need the state of the art stuff to be happy. My two dogs don't play with toys and the don't have fancy treats or dishes or beds or anything like that, but they are some happy puppers. All you need to do to make a dog happy is pick a stick up off the ground or grab and old baseball and play fetch with him and then go on a walk and just love him. He doesn't need a special toy that says a phrase everytime he moves it.
As long as your dogs are given vet care, food, are groomed, and are given attention each day and are happy, I wouldn't worry to much about the accessories. They are nice to have sometimes, but your dogs don't really need it.
