Pet Food Bank
Dedicated to keeping families together, the WAHS Pet Food Bank Program supports community pets by providing the supplemental resources necessary for their owners to afford and retain them. By collaborating with various non-profit partners, we strive to remove barriers to care for our most vulnerable neighbors, including veterans, seniors, and those facing financial hardship. We are proud to offer this barrier-free service to residents of Washington County and beyond, ensuring that life-saving pet food is easily accessible to anyone in need without the burden of income verification. Please contact the shelter today if you are in need of pet food assistance. 724-222-PETS ext 110. Ask to talk to Kelly.
