Friends of Orangeburg County Animal Control

We believe these animals deserve to have a home and to be loved. We believe we can make a difference by offering help with spay/neuter services and educating the public to the problems the animal control office faces on a daily basis.

Rescue FAQs

We are a small rescue group that works directly with our county's animal shelter. This is a kill shelter, but since we began our relationship with the shelter, they have gone from a 90% kill rate to a 30% kill rate. Still not acceptable, but we are trying really hard. Our county is mostly a rural area and animals are not always treated great and spay/neuter is not widely used.

Additional adoption info

Our fees are $95.00 for dogs, which includes spay/neuter, shots, and microchip.
