ounds Pet Food Warehouse is pleased to partner with Friends of
Noah – WI for the grand re-opening of the Janesville satellite adoption center. Animal Care Coordinator, Sherry Martin, will be on site Monday through Friday mornings for animal care and adoption processing.
Martin and Friends of Noah volunteers will host evening and weekend

Friends of Noah - WI, a non-profit all breed animal rescue supporting
southern Wisconsin, is a network of foster homes: Stray and abandoned animals move from rescue, to foster, and are finally adopted into
loving and safe homes. All individuals in the foster network are volunteers. Once cats and kittens under foster care have passed or completed their medical protocols and are age and behavior appropriate, they
will be available for adoption at the Mounds Janesville satellite center.

success story
I
got Keynna, an 11 year old Samoyed, from a rescue about 3
years ago. When I got her, her coat was sparse and dull, she
was lethargic, and she had very soft stools.
We have been feeding Keynna the Mounds Dog Power. She is in
excellent health, with a plush soft and shiny coat.
Keynna is one of the smartest dogs I’ve had. She has a zest for
life, hip hops down the paths, and is enthusiastic about
everything.
She loves people, kids, and dogs. Keynna
is interested in cats but does not interact
with them unless invited.
She is also interested in squirrels, coyotes,
fox, geese, and cranes but sees no reason
to chase them.
