MAMAS is a non-profit 501(c)(3) whose mission is to help animals in and around the Bamberg County, SC area find good loving homes. We are considered a no kill shelter as no adoptable dog is euthanized. We are in an extremely poor county and are very underfunded and rely heavily on donations. We believe that all dogs deserve a chance and take all dogs - the injured and the sick, as long as they are not aggressive to people or other dogs, and they get, or can learn to get, some comfort and enjoyment from human attention. We focus on safety and happiness while they are in our care, with the hopes of simply being a transitional place until they are placed in a loving forever home. We focus on community education regarding responsible pet ownership whenever we get the chance.

Adoption fees can vary, depending on the dog, but generally are $. Potential adopters must complete an application to ensure a good fit and responsible prior pet ownership. A home visit may be required. A contract is required. Adoptions requirements are that dogs be spayed or neutered, be kept on heartworm preventative and in the event the dog needs to be re-homed, ever, it must be returned to us.
