Video: US Pet Food Shortage Begins to Take Hold

In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, pet food shortages are starting to take hold across the U.S., according to a news report.

WTSP-TV in Tampa, FL, reports that some retailers are running low. Dana Brooks, president of the Pet Food Institute, said that “the shelves may be a little bit more bare.”

Apart from the pandemic, “transportation troubles and bad weather” are factors in the low supplies, according to WTSP.

Fortunately, the shortages aren’t as severe as those that occurred with other products, such as toilet paper.
