Friends of Southern Ocean County Animal Shelter

Our mission is to prevent cruelty to animals, to promote kindness to animals, and to conduct projects for the benefit and welfare of animals in Ocean County, and to promote shelter pet adoptions through publicity and public relations.

As Friends continues to grow and assist our community we have become more involved in TNR and a foster base to assist with the overwhelming amount of animals that need our help in the community and shelter. Friends continues to work closely with the Southern Ocean County Animal Shelter to help outreach their adoptable animals.
