Animal Guardians of South Carolina, Inc. is a all-volunteer non-profit 50l(c)(3) corporation whose purpose is to aid homeless, neglected, abandoned, and unwanted animals. We are dedicated to helping the ones that can’t help themselves.
We started our journey in April of 2007 as animal rescue transport drivers. Transporting every week from high kill shelters to non-kill shelter. We didn’t know the magnitude of the problem but wanted to do something to help. Many of these animals were in need of medical treatment and a long transport was to hard on them, some didn’t make it. We realized transporting was not good enough. By the end of 2007 we had built a heated kennel to house and get these animal ready for transport. All of these animals receive vaccinations for rabies, parvo, and distemper. They are tested for heartworm and treated if positive. Most are just scared, we socialized with a gentle and loving hand, soon they realizes that all humans aren’t aggressive. We have had everything from moms giving birth on the morning of transport to dogs several years old stay with us. Since the kennel first opened we have had over 350 dogs stay with us until they were transported to no kill shelters or forever homes.
We have worked with the North Myrtle Beach Animal Shelter, County shelters in North and South Carolina and rescue groups all over the East coast.
