ADOPTERS WANTED, FOSTERS ADORED

It's the weekend! We have more than 100 pets available for adoption TODAY!

Visit pets like Denali at our shelter (1923 Industrial Park Rd., Conway, SC 29526).

Denali is a 3-year-old male Siberian Husky. He came to us as a stray at the end of September. We are working to learn more about him.

We are open from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., and reopen on Monday at 10:30 a.m.

All available ACC pets are up to date on vaccines, spayed/neutered, and microchipped. All ACC adoptions are fee-free.

TEMPORARY FOSTERS NEEDED

A few of our pets are booked for a freedom flight. Before their flights, they need a place to stay temporarily. Can you provide a temporary place to stay?

These pets are scheduled to take their freedom flight on October 24, 2025.
Pets would be kept until their scheduled transport. More info about these pets is included in their photos. THESE PETS ARE NOT AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION.

All ACC foster pets are up to date on vaccines, spayed/neutered, and microchipped. All fosters are supported by the ACC. Supplies are provided for the pet when available.

Interested in fostering these rescue pets? Email rescue@horrycountysc.gov. Include the name of the dog you are interested in fostering in the subject line of the email.

MONTHLY STATS: SEPTEMBER 2025

As of this posting, 352 total animals are in ACC care. This includes available pets, pets awaiting reclaim, pets not yet available, and pets held for legal reasons.

Of that 352:
142 are currently in foster homes

In September 2025, the ACC saw:
306 pets come into our care (Intakes)
18 pets reclaimed by owners
43 pets transfer to partner shelters and rescues
148 pets adopted

At the start of September, new turf was installed between two of our kennel buildings, thanks to a special donation by one of our volunteers. The turf area provides another space for enrichment and play for the dogs in our care.

SPONSOR HEARTWORM TREATMENT

Almost half of our available dogs are positive for heartworm. Heartworm positive status is not a death sentence, as treatment is common and available. At the ACC clinic, we treat pets at cost ($500) post-adoption. Primary veterinarians across the area also offer treatment.

While in our care, all pets receive a preventative, which is a common and accepted practice in animal sheltering. Full treatment (heartworm adulticide) is not always possible in the shelter setting.

We often receive questions about how to help pets with heartworm. One way is to donate toward a pet's treatment (or fully sponsor, like some generous community members have done in the past). Details about how to donate are in the comments below.

Another way? Ensure your pet is on a preventative!

PETPARTNERS

Our latest PetPartner is Angela H., from Horry County Government’s Risk Management. Risk Management identifies and mitigates risks to property and County employees. A risk is anything that could be hazardous or harmful to an employee or property (from buildings to the tools employees use to complete tasks).

Angela started as a police officer with the County in 2019. She has more than 20 years of law enforcement experience, and 12 years in the health & safety field.

Fun fact- Angela teaches a self-defense class at Coastal Carolina University.

Angela met with Tiana, a 2-year-old Labrador Retriever, weighing approximately 45 pounds. She excels in a playgroup with a range of dogs. She is friendly, learns fast, and is sweet. She can be independent and will entertain herself when you are busy.

Tiana would be the perfect addition to any home, with or without other pets.

Tiana is starting to show signs of high stress in our shelter. Can she come home with you?
