Semi-Trailer Of Donations Delivered To Dane County Humane Society

For the entire month of December, Mounds Pet Food Warehouse collected needed donations for Dane County Humane Society at all of its locations. 

Through the generosity of the surrounding community, the donation drive was a huge success and the Mounds semi-tractor trailer delivered the items to the Dane County Humane Society on Friday.

"The items collected range from toys, food, supplies and litter -- all things that we would otherwise have to purchase," said Gayle Viney, DCHS Public Relations Coordinator, in a news release. "DCHS is amazed every year by the overwhelming amount of items donated through Mounds Humane Holidays Drive. We’re so thankful to live in such an animal supportive community".

Everyone at Dane County Humane Society said they want to send a sincere thank you to Mounds Pet Food Warehouse for their constant and incredible support.
