Each month, Southern Comfort Animal Rescue takes a group of dogs to New Jersey for it's annual adoption event. Our next planned event is scheduled for June 27-30.

In the last two months alone, SoCo Rescue has seen 26 dogs and puppies adopted at these events! While we can't always boast such great numbers, these events have seen over 60 dogs and puppies find new, loving homes through these events since we started making the trips in August of last year. We don't just ship dogs off to the north, rather a SoCo representative stays in New Jersey, interviewing each applicant and providing care for the dogs making the trip. These trips require a lot of work and require the representative to be away from home for a week, but the rewards are well worth the effort.

These events do require a van rental, gas and other expenses in order to make the trip and every effort is made to keep these expenses to a minimum. In fact, the representative sleeps in the van during the entire trip and the events are staffed by volunteers. Still, each trip cost approximately $1,000 to make. All the money raised from the adoption events goes back into SoCo Rescue to help pay for things such as vet care and daily expenses to operate the rescue.

Please consider making a donation to help SoCo Rescue make this month’s trip. All donations are tax deductible and are greatly appreciated.
