No Bowl Should Be Empty-No Pet Should Be Without Food
Providing Food to the Hungry

Supporting the Human-Animal Bond

DH DeForge, VMD

The Silver Sands Veterinary Network [#SSVN} has a mission of not allowing any pet to be without food. #SSVN has a Food Bank on site at Milford Veterinary Hospital that runs without stop year round. 

OUR MISSION

Bringing the Human-Animal Bond to a new level by providing a vehicle for all pet owners to be able to supply pet food to those pets in need with minimal or no food. 


To let the citizens of Connecticut and especially New Haven and Fairfield County know that there is help available to all owners and their pets when times are hard.

#DrDonDeForge and his staff of compassionate veterinary nurses and assistants does not want to see any pet go hungry; any owner feeling helpless; and most importantly see any pet abandoned when we can help.

ABOUT US

#DrDonDeForge is the Medical Director of the Silver Sands Veterinary Network. Our General Practive of Veterinary Medicine is Milford Veterinary Hospital.  We are easy to reach...donations are accepted Monday through Friday 9 AM to 5 PM and on Saturday up to noon.  We are just across the street from Dan Perkins Subaru in Milford, CT. In times of need, pets and their owners need our support. No owner should have to give a pet up, or go without food themselves to feed their loved ones.  So we want to help and we desperately need your assistance!

WHY?

Pet food banks help pet owners keep their animals when they fall on hard times; find themselves in crisis; or struggle with job loss or cut hours. 

The SSVN Food Bank can prevent owners from having to surrender their pets to shelters or rescue groups due to financial hardships. Around the country more and more FOOD BANKS are being set up. 

A simple donation from you can be sent to a needed family to help them and their beloved pet. The family just has to apply to #SSVN Food Bank and explain their need.


#DrDonDeForge also sends food that has been collected to NO-KILL shelters to help them as they try to relocate companions in wonderful new homes.

The Human-Animal Bond

Human-Animal Bond

AVMA

The human-animal bond is a mutually beneficial and dynamic relationship between people and animals that is influenced by behaviors that are essential to the health and well-being of both. This includes, but is not limited to, emotional, psychological, and physical interactions of people, animals, and the environment. The veterinarian's role in the human-animal bond is to maximize the potentials of this relationship between people and animals.

The AVMA officially recognizes the existence of the human-animal bond and its importance to client and community health, 


Comments from Dr. DeForge:


Helping to feed homeless pets or pets in homes without necessary income to buy pet food is the Human-Animal Bond being perpetuated and honored by the stranger and advocate caretaker of the animal kingdom.

It is acting with justice and giving LOVE to companions that provide unconditional love to us 24/7 --365 days per year.

Take this journey with #DrDonDeForge and donate to our Food Bank.  One can of food is 1/2 the cost of a cup of coffee at your local bistro.  One bag of food is 1/2 the cost of a pack of cigarettes.

  
Working together we can save and protect many members of the animal kingdom
that need food.  

#DrDonDeForge wants you to also donate to your local community Food Bank for people who need food. Similarly, he wants you to consider helping pets that go to sleep each night with minimum or no food.

#DrDonDeFore is "the Voice of the Voiceless"!  Bring the love found within the Human-Animal Bond in the form of a donation of a single can of Pet Food.  The hungry are relying on you for your help.

Maybe this donation will help you find peace in your day that is anxiety filled or allow you to sleep better at night because you know somewhere-someplace a pet is feeling better because of the food you provided.

Questions call 203-877-3221.

Please no expired foods or opened bags of food.  We want the food as perfect as if it was being fed to the companion you love living in your home with you.  Dog and Cat Food both are needed.

Begin today--your special journey in the wonder of the Human-Animal Bond!
