I like Lois Nemeth! I don't know Lois Nemeth... but I like her a lot! Lois embodies what I have been blogging about these past 7+ months... "Do what you can, where you are, with what you have!" - Go find a need and fill it!" As of September, the organization has helped the pets of 153 families in Taylor and surrounding cities.
Lois is a small business owner - she owns Heritage Bark... a gourmet dog treats bakery located in Taylor, Michigan. As a small business owner catering to animals, Lois was hearing many stories of families having to surrender their much loved pets due to financial circumstances. Michigan is suffering with one of the worst economies in the nation and many pet owners are forced to choose between feeding the family or feeding the pets. Lois wants to help alleviate that problem and has organized Shadow's Pet Pantry.
Mission Statement:
You don't have to face this journey alone...” At Shadows Pet Pantry it is our mission to provide the highest standard of compassion.We are a non profit company that offers food to dogs and cats of loving families in need. From our pantry to yours. Together caring for the ones we love
