Story

WANTED: A Family to Show Me Love After the Worst Name: Tucker Status: Dog friendly | Cat friendly | Lover of all humans &#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143 Hi, I’m Tucker—and I survived something no dog ever should. When I was abandoned, I had a collar so tight it became embedded in my neck. It cut so deep that it left a hole filled with maggots. The pain was unbearable. I wandered alone, hurting, while people tried to catch me but couldn’t. I was too scared… until one kind woman refused to give up on me. She finally saved me from the life I thought would be my end. It took time to heal my wounds, but now I’m healthy, strong, and ready for a second chance. And despite it all, I still love people with my whole heart. Here’s who I am today: &#226&#156&#148 Dog friendly—I like having canine pals &#226&#156&#148 Cat friendly—I’m gentle with the kitties &#226&#156&#148 Playful—I love toys, games, and being silly &#226&#156&#148 Human loving—I’ll soak up every bit of affection you give me I’ve got my whole life ahead of me—and I’m ready to spend it with a family who will finally treat me the way I deserve. I’ve carried the scars of my past long enough… now I just want to be someone’s forever boy. &#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143 Orangeburg SPCA – 225 Ruf Road, Orangeburg SC 803-536-3918 aro.spca@outlook.com | adopt@orangeburgspca.org Hours to meet me: Monday–Friday: 10 AM – 4 PM Wednesday: 10 AM - 2 PM Saturday: 10 AM – 4 PM Closed Sunday Appointments available outside of operating hours upon request. —Signed, Tucker (The Survivor Ready to Be Loved)October 7, 2025, 10:45 am

Story

Ace – Our Longest Waiting Boy My name is Ace, and I’ve been at the Orangeburg SPCA longer than any other dog. I’m 6 years old, and while I’ve watched so many of my shelter friends find their happy endings, I’m still here… waiting. I was rescued from a hoarding situation where I never truly knew love or care. Because my case had to go through the courts, I wasn’t even available for adoption at first. By the time I finally was, it felt like the world had moved on without me. I can’t help but wonder if that wait cost me my chance at a family. I’ll admit, I’m not perfect. I have trust issues, and I don’t always want to share my toys—after all, I never had much to call my own. I also take daily medication to control seizures, so I’ll need a family who can commit to keeping me safe and healthy. But beneath it all, I’m still just a dog who desperately wants what every dog dreams of: love, safety, and a place to belong. Even at my “old age,” I’ve still got plenty of pep in my step—I LOVE to run and could chase a tennis ball all day long. That goofy, playful side of me is still very much alive, and I’m ready to share it with the right family. Everyone at the shelter loves me and wants me to find my perfect family. They’ve promised to work with my new family in any way they can—before, during, and after adoption—to help me succeed. Because of my long stay and some Malinois-like tendencies, I won’t be adopted out immediately. Instead, the shelter will require several visits with me, with staff supervising, to make sure both me and my new family feel comfortable before I go home. I am neutered, up to date on vaccines, and ready for a new chapter. I’m also open to being pulled by a rescue who believes they can help me find the right home. Please, don’t let me spend another birthday in a kennel. I’ve waited longer than anyone, and all I want is someone to finally choose me. &#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143 Orangeburg SPCA – 225 Ruf Road, Orangeburg, SC 803-536-3918 | aro.spca@outlook.com Hours to meet me: Monday–Friday: 10 AM – 4 PM Wednesday: 10 AM - 2 PM Saturday: 10 AM – 4 PM Closed Sunday Appointments outside of operating hours. Please share Ace’s story—help us find this sweet boy the family (or rescue) he’s been dreaming of. October 7, 2025, 10:45 am

Story

WANTED: A Forever Family for Wall-E – The Sweetheart Looking for His Eve Name: Wall-E Status: Dog friendly | Cat friendly | Neutered & ready for adoption Just like the little robot from the movie, I’m Wall-E—a gentle soul who’s been through a lot but still believes in love. My story is tough: I was dumped on the shelter’s doorstep by former law enforcement after their own dogs attacked me. They didn’t care what happened to me…but thankfully, the staff here did. They scooped me up, cared for me, and showed me that kindness still exists. Despite everything, I’m still the biggest sweetheart. I love people, I’m dog friendly, and I even get along with cats. I’ve got the perfect balance of puppy energy and grown-up manners. All I want is a family who will see me for the loving boy I am—and never, ever give up on me again. So maybe I’m not saving the planet like the movie Wall-E, but I promise I’ll fill your home with love, joy, and companionship. &#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143 All I need is someone to be my “EVE”—my person, my family, my forever.
