This one’s for the dogs: Our Place offers pet-food bank

,

Our Place is now offering a pet-food bank for the furry friends of those experiencing or at risk of homelessness.

On average, 60 people bring their pets to each Vets for Pets event at Our Place, which offers free veterinary services on a monthly basis. While food is already provided there, the new pet-food bank will be available throughout the week, during Our Place’s operating hours.
