A Special THANK YOU to Katie and The Good Haul, Animal Food Bank, and ACE Courier for a great donation that will help us keep helping others.
We want to give a big THANK YOU to Kim Vezina and all at our local TD Bank for collecting donations for us this last while.
We truly appreciate you, the staff, and the clients who donated.
The donations have already been used to distribute food to those in need in our community.
Thank You so much again for the opportunity!
This is Dozer, the Bullmastiff, he is looking for his forever family at the EKSPCA
He is so lovely and friendly. His coat is beautiful and dark!
He doesnt do well with other dogs so would be best suited for a family where he is the only dog!
Today at Pet Valu! Come support local low income pet owners by supporting the Cranbrook Pet Food bank!
We are always accepting donations to give away to our community!
If you know anyone who is a low-income pet owner (under $40k annually in Canada) that can benefit from our service, please let them know that we would love to register them.
We currently have 200 individual families registered and are always looking for more people we can help, or for more donations to distribute to them!
Our organization is 2 years old and run by volunteers who love their pets and want to give back to our community members in need!
Thanks to all who donate each month to make the Cranbrook Pet Food Bank such a success :) Hope to see you today!!
Repost reminder of the pet overpopulation crisis:
Each day 10,000 humans are born in the US and each day 70,000 puppies and kittens are born. That represents one human owner to 15 dogs/45 cats. As long as these birth rates exist, there will never be enough homes for all these animals.
One cat has five kittens three times a year – these kittens reach maturity, have kittens of their own. From one pairing, 420,000 cats can be born in seven years. One dog and her descendants can produce more than 60,000 dogs in six years.
The number of animals entering shelters each year is 8-12 million (HSUS estimate).The number of cats and dogs euthanized in shelters across the US is between 5-9 million– 60% dogs, 70% cats (ASPCA estimate).Five out of ten dogs and seven out ten cats in shelters are destroyed simply because there is no one to adopt them (ASPCA estimate).Unaltered dogs often exhibit more behavior and temperament problems. Severe dog attacks on people are more likely to be done by unaltered dogs.The cost to taxpayers every year to impound, shelter, kill and dispose of unwanted animals is about $2 billion.
