Our Rescue & Transport Program saves dogs and cats from high-kill shelters in the Southeast (primarily in northern Georgia and the greater Atlanta area) and moves them to safe, no-kill rescues in the Northeast part of the US. All animals receive full medical care and then are quarantined at a boarding facility or in foster care until they are healthy to travel. We use professional transporters to transfer the animals safely from Georgia to their rescues the Northeast, where they have a much better opportunity for adoption.

All veterinary, boarding, and transport costs are paid by SSP thanks to the generous donations of people like you! :)
