2007-2011 Look how far we have come!

We saved 95% more animals in 2011 than in 2007.We adopted 50% more animals this year than in 2007.We are euthanizing 2,000 animals less than we were in 2007.We are spaying/neutering over 150% more community animals this year than in 2007, which has led to a reduction in both kitten and puppy litters entering the sheltering system.We are saving well over 1,000 free roaming cats this year as part of an initiative launched in 2010, making Charleston County one of the few communities in the nation that has legalized TNR.We led statewide legislative efforts to strengthen animal cruelty laws and improve other conditions for animals,led the effort to keep the notorious dogfighter, David Tant, behind bars when he came up for parole, and led the region in sending staff to animal organizations that suffered the wrath of Spring flooding and tornadoes. We are continuously striving to make our community more humane by working to create innovative new programs that will completely eliminate the unnecessary deaths of healthy and treatable animals. The bottom line for us is that we will not rest until each and every animal in our community and beyond has a home.
