Tractor Supply donates
32 bags of pet food
Contributed
The Tractor Supply Co. store in Madera is donating 32 bags of pet food to feed dogs and cats in need of adop- tion.
"More often than not, animal shelters and rescues depend greatly on food donations to support the pets they take in that await adoption," said James Weatherill, manager of the Madera Tractor Supply store.
"Our goal at Tractor Supply is to do our part in help- ing adoption efforts in our community because we know that pets are more than just dogs and cats, they are fam- ily."
Tractor Supply presented the pet food donation to: Nuts ’n Bolts Animal Advocates.
Inadditiontothepetfooddonation,theMadera and the Clovis Tractor Supply host pet adoption events throughout the year. The Sanger shelter has a special pet adoption event at the Clovis store on the third Sat- urday of every month. Two dogs, Blaze and Nola, were adopted at the event last Saturday.

This week's featured pet is Lucy, a shepherd/malinois mix, about 2 years old.
Blaze and last week's featured pet, Nola, were adopted last Saturday at the special adoption event at Tractor Supply Co. in Clovis. Sanger's shelter animals will be at Tractor Supply Co. on the third Saturday of each month. Animal Control Of- ficer (ACO) Mario Irazoqui
is trying to find a location
in Sanger for additional adop- tion events.
JoJo and Doc have been at the Sanger shelter the lon- gest. JoJo is a young, happy, always smiling pitbull boy. Doc is an older pitbull mix. Adoption is becoming a criti- cal need for them because when the shelter becomes full and none of the rescue groups are able to take them, euthanasia is the last alterna- tive.
Call Sanger ACO Irazoqui at (559) 618-9071 to make an appointment to meet Buster Brown, Ellie, Tenille, Tank,
ing/neutering and bringing the rabies shot up to date. The only charge is to the
veterinarian, Gregory Saiki. DVM.
