SC Hoarding — An Estimated 300 Dogs in Danger. Lucky Dog needs your help!

pup-infected-eyeLate in the evening of August 31, 2009, Animal Control and the Sheriff from a rural South Carolina county acknowledged that 300 neglected dogs of all shapes and sizes were living in terrible conditions in the home of a suspected hoarder.  The dogs are living in horrible conditions: some are confined to crates at all times, with many of the crates too small.  These poor dogs could only lay in one position and most developed sores from the bars of the crates.  None had seen a vet, all are malnourished and have a variety of ailments that need immediate attention. Two died of starvation.  We know of at least one that was rushed to a local vet with the worst case of hookworms that the vet had ever seen.

The local Animal Control has not yet rescued these dogs!  It us up to individual rescues to get them out.  Lucky Dog and our South Carolina partners are attempting to save as many of these pups as we can but we desperately need your help!

  1. DONATE: We are accepting donations that will go straight to helping these pups by paying for much needed medical attention, food, supplies and boarding while they return to health.
  2. FOSTER: We are accepting applications for new foster homes! You provide these deserving pups a loving and safe home while we work to find them a forever home!

You can make a difference and give these dogs a chance at a normal, happy life!
