According to the organization, a proliferation of puppies, intakes from hoarding conditions and an increase in dogs surrendered by their owners have contributed to the food shortage.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Hunger is a topic front-of-mind for many in our community. Animals are not immune,&#8221; Madeline Bernstein, spcaLA President, said in a statement. &#8220;Shelter pets come here hungry, malnourished, and often injured or sick. An essential part of their recovery is proper nutrition and feeding. We need help to keep them well-nourished and healthy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Those who are interested in helping can do so in a variety of ways, including monetary donations and pet food donations.
