We are desperately trying to help an elderly man in High Point who has had too many dogs abandoned on his property. 20 to be exact. He lives on a corner lot in a very questionable area of town and his entire property is fenced in so it is very easy for people to drop dogs into his yard, which they have done. He is out of work. So, I called him on Thursday last week to tell him I had two of his female dogs scheduled to be spayed this week and he needed to have them ready for pick up early, blah, blah, blah... I aksed how the last two female dogs that we spayed were doing and he said good and that he was cooking for them. I said cooking? He said yes, he would not get anymore money until October 1st so he had bought a big bag of dried beans and cooked for the dogs twice a day so they could eat.
This broke my heart...
I immediately went to see what, if any, donated food we had. I was able to scrounge up 6 bags of food so I called the nice man who is being the "taxi" for all of the spay trip from High Point to Greensboro and he met me to get the food!
I say all of this just to let you know that food donated to ARFP NEVER goes to waste! Our foster homes are so grateful when we get donated food, as are the people in the community that we try to help.
Now through Tuesday Purina Puppy Chow and Purina Dog Chow are on SALE at harris Teeter Buy One Get One FREE! 
All donations are appreciated at the
