Salmon Brook Veterinary Hospital will conduct its annual pet food drive on Saturday, Dec. 14, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Cat and dog food donations will go to aid local food pantries and organizations dedicated to keeping pets with their owners. This year monetary donations will be sent to Veterans Equine Therapeutic Services, dedicated to providing equine therapy to military veterans. To learn more about this amazing organization, visit: vetsct.org
SBVH will collect food starting Monday, Nov. 25 through the month of December. There will be storage containers at the front of the building labeled for pet food donation drop offs. On Dec. 14 there will be a tent set up with a table for pet food drop off and staff to assist you. We are excited that Holy Cows 4H Group will return this year on the day of the food drive.
Donors can have food delivered to SBVH directly from Chewy. We thank Horses & Hounds at 15 Mill Pond Drive for continued support and for graciously offering to be a collection site for another year.
As in past years, Salmon Brook Veterinary Hospital will match the food donations up to 3,000 pounds. At the request of the food pantries and shelters, preferred donations of dog and cat food are bags of kibble up to 30 pounds and canned food. Further information will follow on our Facebook page. Come support your neighbors and the pets they love!
