Animal SOS

Animal SOS Animal SOS supports local rescues by helping with vet care and supporting fund raising efforts. We are an all volunteer group.

We also help senior and disabled citizens keep their pets, including providing low-cost spay/neuter. We provide transportation for seniors and rescues to areas inside the Columbus, Georgia area. Beginning in 2013, we are working with Columbus in their community cat program. We maintain a registry of colonies and their caregivers. This registry allows free roaming cats a chance to be returned and offers the caregivers opportunities for free and low-cost spay/neuters.

10,000 miles later… and we’re just getting started!

You read that right! We will be hitting 10,000 miles this week on the NEW Rescue Relay Transport Van. Not only is this an exciting milestone (10,000 miles of lifesaving!!!) but this is also the largest transport out of Columbus, GA in nearly two years😱

Want to help us celebrate 10k miles AND 30 second chances!? We would love to get all 30 of these dogs sponsored. Each sponsorship is $40 - just let us know in the comments if you want your donation to go towards any dog or a specific dog. The donations received will go towards the cost of transport runs - the lifeline for so many pets.

Half of these dogs are being transported by Paws to their partners & half are being transported by Animal SOS to our partners, but the coolest thing is that every single one is from right here within our own community. And together we are making such a difference in their lives!

YOU spreading the word got THIS girl out of the shelter, into a foster home, and one step closer to finding her new family. It also opened up one more space at the shelter that was desperately needed.

Thank you for your support — fostering truly does save lives, and this is proof.

We CAN save more dogs with more foster commitments! It’s all short-term, free, and will fill your heart in so many ways.

See this sweet face?

This pup was recently rescued out of a storm drain by some incredible officers at Paws ASD.

One of our amazing rescue partners wants to take her - to love her, care for her, and find her a forever home. And we want to make that happen.

But here’s the reality… Our local animal services is overflowing. Dogs are in pop-up kennels, offices, even going home with staff at night. Our fosters are doubled up, we are running multiple transports a month, and we are all practically begging community members to keep their pets at least a little longer so we can keep scrambling to figure something out… all in an effort to prevent euthanasia due to overcrowding.

And without fosters… We’re stuck. In so many ways. As is this pup. Because without a foster, we can’t get her to our rescue partner. Without our rescue partner, she stays at the shelter - waiting and waiting.

If just one person could open their home for six days, we can change her entire story.
Six days of love. Six days of safety.
That’s all it takes to save her life.

Please. We’re begging.
We need fosters.
Lives depend on it.

We’re in a really tough spot - one we haven’t faced in a long time.

There are dogs sitting in the shelter right now with families waiting for them through our transport partners. The only thing standing between them and their happily-ever-after is a lack of local fosters 😭😭😭

We just need people willing to open their homes and hearts for 2 to 4 weeks. Indoors. Loved. Safe. We’ll provide all food and supplies, you just provide the care and compassion.

Please, if you can help, reach out. We truly can’t save lives without you. This is your sign to give fostering a shot ❤️

Medical Monday: Mini’s Version!

Mini was surrendered to us after her owner’s health declined, and we promised to love her just as much as her mom did. That starts with getting her the care she needs to feel 100% again!

We’re aiming to raise $300 to cover her cherry eye surgery! Can you help us make it happen? Every little bit adds up for this sweet girl!

Today we welcomed five more little poopers (literally) into the Animal SOS family 💩🐾

Partnering with Paws Humane Society through this animal control takeover has been no small task. The team at Paws has been incredible to work alongside, but the truth is animals are coming in faster than they’re getting out.

These five pups were dumped in a crate at the shelter doors - at a shelter that’s fighting every single day not to euthanize healthy, adoptable animals simply because there’s no room left. And this isn’t a fight they should have to do alone.

Right now, your support means more than ever.
Open your home. Open your heart. Foster. Adopt. Donate. Volunteer. Be the reason an animal gets their second chance. Use the resources available in our community. Be a responsible pet owner. Be their voice when they don’t have one.

These animals didn’t choose to be abandoned, forgotten, or left behind - but you can choose to help change how their story ends. And for these little guys? We promise to make sure they get the happy ending they all deserve. ❤️

Help us welcome Tortuga to the Animal SOS family 😍

This sweet girl was found as a stray in our community and spent several days waiting at the shelter with no one coming for her. Today, she’s getting her second chance!

Welcome to the fam, Tortuga! From here on out, it’s only up, sweet girl.
