National Animal Crisis Groups to Aid Anderson PAWS

Anderson County PAWS is happy to welcome two national animal-crisis organizations, RedRover Responders and the Humane Society United States organizations to Anderson County. These two organizations will work with county officials, first responder agencies and volunteers to continue assessing the animals that were taken in from the suspected puppy mill on August 9.

“I want to personally thank these two organizations for their assistance,” said Anderson County Interim Administrator Rusty Burns. “Representatives from these two nationally-recognized organizations will arrive in Anderson tonight and immediately get to work on Tuesday morning. This past weekend has been an amazing demonstration of the generous spirit of our residents. Their kind response towards these animals has turned a terrible situation into a true testament to the kind of County we are.”
