💰Donations at Work💰

Because of your generosity, we are able to continue to provide funding for critical spay/neuter surgeries for shelter bound animals. This donation also helps reduce any pull fee that may be charged to a rescue, which means we are making it more affordable to move dogs into rescue programs. Additionally, any funding raised to sponsor a shelter pup can now be used to help fund other issues for the shelter animals. This donation is truly life changing for our animals in need in Fairfield County - so, thank YOU for making this possible.

If you want to see us continue to support shelters like this, please participate in our upcoming online auction which starts November 2nd at 7pm. The auction will be on Air Auctioneer again, so make a profile now!

♥️🪱 Heartworm Treatment 🪱♥️

Are you sick of hearing about heartworms? We are too! Such an easy disease to prevent, yet nearly all adult dogs coming into shelters and rescues tests positive for the disease. This disease is deadly and severely limits a pup’s ability to get out of the shelter and into out of state rescues.

We are so thankful for Final Victory Animal Rescue for taking so many HW + dogs into their program. Thanks to YOUR donations, we have been able to provide a matching fundraiser to help them treat these pups for heartworms.

Thank you for supporting us so we can help save lives!

10/01/2024

💰REWARD💰

Hoof and Paw along with Final Victory Animal Rescue and Because Of Roscoe have raised money for a reward leading to the arrest and conviction of the person(s) responsible for the severe abuse of a female pit mix in Fairfield County. The pup did not make it despite a Good Samaritan acting quickly when he found the emaciated pup discarded in a dog food bag. The pup was rushed to CVETS where she was humanely euthanized.

IF YOU KNOW SOMETHING, SAY SOMETHING! You can report any tips to FCSO at 803-635-4141.

Check out their page to learn more about them and their adoptables!

We want to say a HUGE thank you to Hoof and Paw!!🐾♥️ This donation is truly life changing!!

Without this support, we would not be able to help as many animals as we do. Thanks to Hoof and Paws donation, we are able to pull more dogs from the shelter and help with the overpopulation.

Our rural shelter partner is overflowing and bursting at the seams. To say the least….. Thanks to this support we can pull more dogs/cats and help them get a second chance, where they can truly thrive 🐶

To continue helping these animals, and to give them a fighting chance, please consider adopting or sharing our posts to raise awareness!!

If you are not able or ready to adopt at the moment we do have a foster application on our website! It is 100% free and helps us bring in more animals in need! And if you CAN’T foster, the rescue is ALWAYS in need of donations ♥️🐾 Or just sharing our posts can help greatly too if you do not have the means to donate!! There is ALWAYS a way to help!!

Donations don’t just help with immediate needs; they save lives and bring hope to those who have none. Every dollar counts, and together with individuals, businesses and other organizations, we can make a difference for countless rescue animals who deserve love and a second chance.

Recently, Homeward Bound Pet Rescue asked for help paying for their medical expenses. This rescue is entirely volunteer run and their mission is to save homeless pets throughout the Midlands. They have taken on numerous medical cases and the bills were stacking up, so, thanks to YOU, we have contributed to their medical expenses.

It is so important to support of our local rescues in SC because there is a sheltering crisis statewide, and these local rescues are the only way to prevent high euthanasia rates in our local shelters.

If you’re looking to do more for animals, please check out Homeward Bound Pet Rescue and see how you can help!

💰YOUR Donations at Work💰

Thanks to your support, we’ve been able to support Rosie Rescue and the incredible lifesaving work they are doing. This rescue pulls NUMEROUS dogs off the euthanasia list at various shelters statewide. Many rural shelters do not have the rescue networks and connections other shelters have to get their animals out. It takes volunteers and dedicated staff to create, maintain, and foster rescue relationships and many rural shelters just don’t have that kind of support. Well, Rosie Rescue is their lifeline and they SAVE LIVES every single day.

We are so thankful for them and their dedication to helping our local shelters. They take in animals regardless of their medical conditions, so our donation will go far in helping them address medical care for the animals in their program.

Thank you for supporting us so we can support wonderful rescues like Rosie Rescue!

Thanks to YOUR donations, we are able to provide financial support to wonderful organizations like Kershaw County Humane Society.

We would like to thank HoofandPaw SC for their generous donation. It is always needed and deeply appreciated.

We would also like to acknowledge their donation to one of our fabulous rescue partners, Dusty Tails Animal Rescue! This donation, helps the rescue immensely, and by freeing up resources, they can continue to help KCHS. This creates a circle that continuously benefits the animals.

Thank you Hoof and Paw for your continued support!

🤍🤎Liberty and Faith🤎🤍

Remember these two severely emaciated horses LEARN Horse Rescue took in nearly 4 months ago? Well, look at them now!!! It is honestly shocking they have survived such severe neglect and abuse, but, thanks to the amazing care they are receiving at LEARN, they are both making significant progress!

Starved horses are incredibly delicate and very difficult to bring back to a healthy weight. You cannot just give them a ton of food - that could kill them. You have to follow a slow refeeding schedule that allows their body to slowly remember how to process food again. This process takes time and is quite expensive as they need high quality hay, supplements, and grain.

It is clear LEARN is doing all the right things for these lucky ladies! For us, the contrast of the top picture and the bottom right picture speaks volumes! Their expressions, their brightness, their heads being held high with ears forward really captures their recovery, not only on the outside, but the inside too.

They are happy, getting healthier, and are clearly soaking up the love and care they are receiving. Thank you LEARN for your patient and excellent care of Faith and Liberty.

09/02/2024

From all of us at Hoof and Paw, Happy Labor Day! We wish you a safe, healthy, and happy holiday!

This plea has NOT officially been postponed.

Our understanding is that Dawn’s case is being evaluated for Mental Health Court (MHC), BUT isn’t guaranteed to proceed in that court. If her case is unfit for MHC, her plea will proceed at a later date in General Sessions.

Officers were called to conduct a welfare check at the Columbia home of Caroline Dawn Pennington, 47, following a complaint that it "smelled of death."

♥️🪱 Heartworms 🪱♥️

These two sweet ladies are both heartworm positive which is not only fatal if left untreated, but severely limits their ability to move into rescues based out of state. Thanks to YOUR donations, Hoof and Paw of SC is donating toward their heartworm treatment! These lovely ladies will be heartworm negative soon and ready for the good life!

Roxie is at the Lee County Animal Shelter-Bishopville and Mama Hound is with Final Victory Animal Rescue. We are so thankful for the partnership we have with both of these entities!

Unfortunately, heartworms are incredibly prevalent here in South Carolina, but they are also incredibly preventable! For about $10 a month, you can ensure your sweet pup is protected from the fatal condition. Ask your vet about heartworm prevention TODAY!
