A Second Chance Animal Shelter - ASCAS Manning, SC

If your dog goes missing during the 4th of July holiday weekend, or any other time, you can check Clarendon County Animal Control's website to see if it has been brought into their facility.

The website is clarendoncountyanimalcontrol.com.

Also, if you are a Clarendon County resident with a lost pet, the shelter will also place a courtesy post on its page to help spread the word. It is very helpful if a clear and fairly recent picture is provided. Thank you.

We are excited to inform that we had several cat adoptions during the month of June. Thank you to all of the adopters for opening your hearts and homes to these well-deserving cutie pies. Wishing everyone the best as you embark on this purr-fect journey filled with endless joy and cozy cuddles.

Rowan is young, sweet and has a mellow spirit. Just seems to go with the flow. He may seem shy at first, but that's just because he's independent and does things at his own pace. He seems to get along with other cats. He's approximately one year old and came to the shelter a few months ago. Rowan is neutered and UTD on all of his vaccinations. Come and meet this precious fellow.

As sweet as her name suggests and equally as cute! Candy is one of our several "Valentine" siblings at the shelter available for adoption. She's a friendly lab/bully mix, approximately 10 months old. She is spayed and UTD on her vaccinations. She did test positive for heartworm. She's a pup just looking for that special someone to give her the loving and caring home that she deserves.

We are excited to partner with the BISSELL Pet Foundation for their incredible "Empty the Shelters" event, which will take place from July 5 to July 19!
During this limited-time event, adoption fees for both dogs and cats will be reduced, making it easier for more pets to find loving homes. Whether you're looking for an upbeat or laid-back canine or a cuddly kitten, this is a great time to meet your new best friend!
An adoption application must still be completed and can be found at www.asecondchanceanimalshelter.com. Come visit. Our shelter animals would love to meet you.

📢 It’s back! BISSELL Pet Foundation’s Empty the Shelters®—the nation’s largest funded adoption event—returns this summer, July 5–19, 2025! 🐾

Summer is one of the most challenging times for shelters. With rising intakes, staff shortages, and overcrowding, pets urgently need homes—and you can help. 💙

In partnership with 300+ shelters across 40 states, BISSELL Pet Foundation is sponsoring adoption fees of $70 or less to help more families bring home fully vetted pets.

Since 2016, over 324,000 pets have found love through Empty the Shelters. Will you help us save even more this summer?

Congratulations to Jess Brewer. That sweet face belongs to Velma.

Someone got just a little too close to the lens. Can you guess who this sweet face belongs to? Comment below. One guess per person (make it your best). Cheating permitted. You can check our website, phone a friend or better, stop by our shelter to take a look. The answer will be revealed on Monday. This is strictly for fun. No prizes will be awarded (sorry 😞).
