Ducky's Pet Food Friday Program
Free Dog & Cat Food on the First Friday of Every Month for Residents of Navarro County provided by the Humane Society of Navarro County.
Ducky's Pet Food Friday is a program provided by the Humane Society of Navarro County. It aims at distributing supplemental meals to pet owners in need in Navarro County. It routinely helps over 50+ families and 400+ animals every month.
Over the years the program has evolved into a monthly distribution of dog and cat food. The biggest source of income is fundraisers started on Ducky's (an eleven year old shih-tzu) social media pages. His efforts have raised over $10,000 for the program; thus inspiring the name
"Ducky's Pet Food Friday".
We are so grateful to have many dedicated volunteers that keep this program running smooth!
We hope to grow and be able to provide more dog & cat food to residents in need. Our monthly budget is extremely limited but we aim to help as many pets as we can have full bellies. Food insecurity is a huge problem in our country and it does not only affect humans. Our goal is to help ease that burden in whatever way we can.
Current Distribution Location:

Start time: 10am
Benny's Bottle Babies
Have you found a young kitten or puppy that needs to be bottle fed? Are you wanting to care for the baby, but need supplies? Contact us! With our program "Benny's Bottle Babies", we provide critical nursing supplies free of charge. A nursing pack will help get you successfully started in feeding an orphaned puppy or kitten. Our goal is to keep vulnerable babies out of the crowded shelter environment by supporting those who are willing to care for a bottle baby.
Please call us at 903-875-1060 or email admin@thehsnc.org if you need a nursing pack. If it is after hours or on the weekend, emailing will be the quickest way to get a response. Please include your cell number in your email.

Does my pet qualify for food?
Our only requirement is that you are a resident of Navarro County. We do not need proof of income. If you have questions, please call 903-875-1060, email us at admin@thehsnc.org or reach out to us on Ducky's Social Media accounts.
NOTE: We give out as much food as our budget allows, so there may be times when we have less available. This program is designed to provide supplemental meals for dogs and cats and can not be the sole source of food for your pet. We ONLY give out dog and cat food at this time. We cannot guarantee that we can meet certain needs like puppy/kitten or small bites/senior food. We do not regularly have canned food or treats. As this program grows, our hope is to provide age/size specific and canned food, but we are not currently at that point.
