One of the first things I bought when the world started going crazy was a big bag of food for my little dog, Snuggles. I can't imagine not being able to feed him, but the truth is, his food is specialized, expensive, food and I'm glad there are programs like this to help people out. 

The Idaho Humane Society has a "pet food pantry." The recently received a grant from The Greater Good to help provide assistance to those affected by COVID-19.

According to the WashingtonPost.com, 22 million people across the United States are now unemployed and when you don't have money coming in, sometimes pets suffer.
