Distribution Location
Please park in front of the building and walk around to the back. Because of people and animals walking in the back area, please do not drive your car around to the back. We will have volunteers to help carry food to your vehicle.
Distribution Dates
Food will only be given out on the last Saturday of each month from 11am – 2pm with the exception of holidays. Dates are subject to change.
What To Bring and What NOT to bring
Please leave your animals at home. It is too hot in Florida to leave your animal in a hot car where the heat becomes excessive very quickly and can result in the death of an animal.
Please bring:
- Proof of Spay/Neuter for Each Pet
- Proof of Income Qualifications
- Valid Florida Photo Identification
Donations Make This Possible
As a volunteer-run program, all of our pet food is donated to us by members of the community including individuals, local Walmart and Target locations and grants that we are awarded to purchase food. We are only able to continue this program through donations. If you can contribute, please drop off any of the following food during shelter hours.
- Dry Dog Food
- Dry Puppy Food
- Dry Cat Food
- Dry Kitten Food
- Treats Made in the USA
