Mission: Save A Pet, Inc, is a 501(c)(3) non-profit volunteer organization funded by private donations. Our mission is to offer care for abused, neglected, unwanted or homeless animals until they can be placed in suitable loving permanent homes. We provide safe shelter, food, medication and veterinary care for animals in our care and all are spayed or neutered prior to adoption. We set no time limits on animals waiting for adoption; we do not euthanize to make room for more. Our goal is to help bring an end to animal suffering and overpopulation through educating the public on the importance of pet sterilization, responsible pet ownership and humane treatment of animals.

Results: Since its inception in 1998 SAP has placed over 2000 dogs in loving home, 392 animals were spayed/neutered at SAP sponsored spay/neuter clinics and many animals have been sterilized because of the information or financial assistance we were able to furnish to people with unaltered pets.

Target demographics: to protect and improve the lives of abandoned, abused, and homeless dogs and to place them in loving permanent homes.

Geographic areas served: Monroe County, Ga

Programs: Animal suffering and overpopulation is not only a worldwide problem, it is a very real problem on the local level. During the course of a year, sap has, on average 120 volunteers. These volunteers help in various ways: some care for the dogs in our kennel, some work at adoption events, some do fundraising events, and all are asked to provide information to the public of low-cost spay neuter clinics, importance of spay/neutering, and responsible pet ownership. Since its inception in 1998 sap has placed over 2000 dogs in loving home, numerous animals have been spayed/neutered at sap sponsored spay/neuter clinics and many animals have been sterilized because of the information or financial assistance we were able to furnish to people with unaltered pets. We are proud of the many school and college students that have chosen sap as a club project furthering our goal of raising awareness of responsible pet ownership and humane treatment of animals. Sap also partners with atlanta humane society (ahs) in an effort to save many unwanted puppies by transporting them to ahs for adoption. In 2012, sap was able to purchase 10 acres of land to build a new rescue shelter. Construction began in the fall of 2013.With the outpouring support of the local community this shelter will be the only no-kill shelter of its kind in the middle georgia area. The shelter will accommodate up to 50 dogs awaiting their adoption. The shelter will be climate controlled with extended play area and trails for volunteers to walk the dogs. We are within $150,000.Oo for completing the shelter. This amount does not include fencing or trail expense. Ongoing fundraisers continue to help meet the goal for completing our shelter.
