Programs Provide Pet Food for Financially Challenged Pet Owners in
Portland Metro & Clackamas County Areas
OREGON CITY Oregon – February 22, 2011 –FIDO (Friends Involved in Dog Outreach) today announced that in 2010 this non-profit association distributed 90,856 pounds of free pet food to financially challenged pet owners in the greater Portland Metro area. Its three programs — AniMeals, FIDO Dog Food Bank, and the newly launched Cat Food Bank — are entirely volunteer-run and donation funded.
Friends Involved with Dog Outreach (F.I.D.O.) would like to ask for your help. Since 2009 F.I.D.O has helped tothousands of families feed their pets, with their Dog Food Bank, giving out 4,000 to 6,000 pounds of pet food each month. The last few months the need for their help has increased, in December the distributed over 8,000 pounds of pet food. The increased requests for help have drained F.I.D.O's resources to the point were they expect to be short of meeting January's requests by over 4,000 pounds of pet food.
"For families facing tough financial times, this food is what makes it possible for them to keep their pets at home and out of the shelters." Joni Taylor Executive Director of F.I.D.O. "We depend on donations, right now the demand is far exceeding the donations we have been receiving. We are extremely low on dry dog food, an getting very low on dry cat food."

My name is Nancy and I am the Coordinator in the Portland metro area for the National Canine Cancer Foundation. We suffered a loss September 10 2009 when our Golden Retriever Molly died of Hemangiosacoma Cancer; she was just six years old. It was an awful day. The next day I started researching on the internet about this cancer she got. I was overwhelmed over the information I was finding out. Finding out one in three dog’s die of cancer is a lot.
Take a look at us! We are some of the lucky dogs and cats from the Oregon Humane Society that will get a chance to find our forever home at the Northwest Pet & Companion Fair.
