Review for CHARLESTON ANIMAL SOCIETY, North Charleston, SC, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I have been volunteering at CAS for over two years. It is a modern, clean facility where both staff and volunteers take their mission of caring for the animals seriously. They go way beyond keeping the animals fed, watered, and the areas clean. They also make sure they have good human interaction and enrichment to keep them busy. All volunteers must take a 3 hour class on dog interaction which promotes safety. Beyond this, they operate bark camp at the shelter for middle school children during the summer, and a summer program for older children who may be interested in a veterinary career. Last year they also developed a training class that was attended by people from South Carolina as well as other states and provided enough training materials so that the attendees could go back and give this class to others. CAS is recognized nationally as one of the best organizations of its kind. Best of all, I found my constant companion, a two year old miniature poodle there!
