Melvin…just be warned, in case you’re thinking about adopting him. He’s kinda bougie. It requires his own pillow to sleep on and he likes to be tucked in at night. 💙

Thank you so much for donating towards Dell’s surgery. We appreciate it more than you know. We are still $1,425 away from covering the bill. No amount is too small. Every single dollar helps and is greatly appreciated. ♥️🐾

💔🐶 Dell Needs Our Help 🐶💔

Sweet Dell came into our care with a broken leg and had to have surgery to relieve her pain and give her the chance to run, play, and live the happy life every dog deserves. This surgery was not optional, it’s the only way Dell could heal properly and have a pain-free future.

Unexpected medical cases like Dell’s put a heavy strain on our non profit parter, Friends of Colleton County Animal Shelter, but we refused to give up on her. That’s where you come in.

Every donation (big or small) will go directly toward Dell’s surgery, recovery, and follow-up care.

Thank you for always standing up for the animals who need us most. ♥️🐾

It’s a new year…time for a new license plate! Please consider a 𝗡𝗢 𝗠𝗢𝗥𝗘 𝗛𝗢𝗠𝗘𝗟𝗘𝗦𝗦 𝗣𝗘𝗧𝗦 tag for your vehicle. This tag supports spay/neuter across our state. With shelters everywhere being so overcrowded, we need all the help we can get! You can get one from the DMV or you can just go online to get yours. Thank you to those who have already made the change! It’s very much appreciated!! ♥️🐾

Not just feeding and cleaning. Not just medical care.
But slowing down, getting on the floor, and becoming a safe place when an animal needs comfort most.

Our shelter staff and volunteers go above and beyond every single day to make sure the animals in our care feel secure, loved, and seen. Whether it’s staying late, offering quiet reassurance, or simply holding them close until they can rest, their hearts are fully in this work.

The animals may not understand schedules or policies, but they understand kindness. And that’s something our team gives freely.

We are so grateful for the dedication, empathy, and love our staff and volunteers show every day. This is why what we do matters. 🐾💜

Lola’s story is heartbreaking, to say the least. She is the sweetest girl, despite what she’s been through. She deserves a home with love and reassurance that all people aren’t bad.
