Did you know that No-Kill shelters still euthanize? They have to keep the % down to a certain level to qualify as No-kill.
Quality run shelters keep those numbers down. They find resources and programs to find rescues, fosters and adopters through their staff and volunteers. These shelters only euthanize due to illness/injury and behavior. The behavior can be questionable because not all shelters have qualified people to access behavior properly. We hope to bring support and resources to these shelters.
Then there are the shelters that euthanize based on breed (and they lie about it), age and poor evaluations. These shelters also hide their numbers. Their ethics are not what we hope for in shelters in South Carolina. We hope to bring change to these issues.
We will be bringing the following and more to the shelters in need of change:
- Space renovation/repair
- Kennel reform
- Supply food, toys, beds
- Enhance technology
- Voucher, chip and HW programs
- Licensed behavior assessment
- Offsite enhanced training
- Onsite staff training
- Filling government funding gaps
- Rescue networks
- Foster funding
- Transport assistance
- Volunteer programs
- Advertising and network assistance
- Community program funding
- Shelter Prevention and Owner Retention
