Rescue Services

Shelter Animals Adocates rescues dogs from Aiken County/City and other rescue/ shelters in our state. We often step in to help support animal efforts for overwhelmed rescues/shelters who help our state/county we foster the dogs, get them ready for adoption, by spay-neuter and other medical needs, We care for them until they can be adopted or move to a no-kill rescue. Under our HeartBeat Campaign we provide HW treatment for heartworm positive dogs rescued from Aiken County shelter, heartworm treatment takes about four months to complete. Most dogs we have for adoption have no where else to go, they are often bully mixes that no rescue has time to adopt out as fosters are hard to commit to lengthy fosters stays. Dogs we have for adoption often wait for months to find the right home. Please consider donating so we can continue our efforts in our state.

The mission of Town Cats is to enrich the lives of free-roaming, feral, or abandoned cats in the Ocean City, Md and surrounding communities by limiting the population growth and providing medical care through Trap/Neuter/Return (TNR), and affordable adoption services. Town Cats was organized in 1998 in order to address the feral cat population of Ocean City, Maryland. When they went home in the fall, many summer visitors would leave behind the cats they had been feeding all summer to face the winter without food or shelter. Those that survived would inevitably breed in the spring, producing litters of feral kittens that would eventually produce more unwanted kittens. Something had to be done to stop the litters and so Town Cats was born to spay/neuter/vaccinate the feral cats of Ocean City.

We are a local affiliate of the national Italian Greyhound Club of America Rescue.

ARF was organized to rescue and transport pets from the county shelter in order to decrease euthanasia rates. Through the years, ARF has been able to help additional pets that the shelter either wouldn't accept or didn't have room to house. ARF does posting and transport for both organizations.

We are a grassroots based 501c3 animal welfare non-profit.

We also promote Trap Neuter Return in our community through our Neighborhood Feral Cat Initiative program.

The mission of A Reason To Believe Animal Rescue is to rescue homeless or neglected domestic animals (including but not necessarily limited to dogs and cats), provide veterinary care, and get them placed them in great adoptive homes. All are spayed/neutered prior to adoption. We house these animals in foster homes, kennels, or boarding as needed. We work in collaboration with shelters, veterinarians, rescues, owners needing to rehome their pets, and the public. We work to reduce the animal overpopulation issue by spaying and neutering as part of our process. We work to ensure the safety of the public by vaccinating according to the law and as the health of the animal permits based on the recommendations of our veterinarian. We treat for parasites, injuries, dentals, skin or ear infections. etc. No, we cannot afford to pay your vet bill, but if you choose to surrender your sick or injured pet to us, we will fundraise to get it the care it needs.

I am a real estate broker by trade and currently the majority of dogs saved are funded by me personally until we grow. We saved 23 dogs from a FL hoarder in Levy in Feb/March of this year.
